I just came out to my est friend here and.... WOOHHOOO! I'm accepted by my gay friend. The only person in my class that would accept me and that I know of. He is truly my best friend. He has other gay friends and said he supports me if I need any help. I'm delighted, Gay1234
I'm glad you usually find yourself surrounded by supportive people, even when the destructive people are lingering around. It's awesome that you're friend has accepted you for who you are!
