    Hi coming out is probably one of the biggest challenges in my life right now. I'm constantly trying to avoid eye contact with (attractive) people (guys). I'm always afraid of how my other friends and family would react if they found out , anyway my first time I told someone of my feelings was in 8th grade. It was the beginning of the year and I had been going to the same school for 2 years and had many close friends. However i met this one girl in 6th grade and we instantly hit it off. Became the best of friends and still are today , anyway We had been friends for over 2 years and I finally decided that i would tell her Im gay. I video called her (skype) and I started crying , she started asking what was wrong and asking if everything was okay ( the usual things) So lets just say after I finally finished my little panic attack I told her "well umm I think. I like.. guys
    She starts crying saying "thank you so much for telling me" "that makes me feel special for being the first person you tell" And that's how I told my first friend. Not very interesting but all the same It was a HUGE deal for me. THanks for reading:smilewave
