I've been thinking about coming out to friends for a little while now. There are times when I don't see them much but generally we are a close group. I guess the biggest reason why I want to come out to them is because we are always pretty honest with each other. I feel like I'm always having to hide because I haven't told them and now I'm getting that familiar feeling of anxiety because I feel it's time to come out. But I'm not really sure how I'd like to tell them. I considered coming out to my close friends in person but I'd be far too nervous for that. So I'm thinking of doing it in 2 stages: telling people I'm not that close to on Facebook then telling close friends in the same way. I want it to give them a bit of background but try to keep everything as short as possible. And I want it to be somewhat light hearted too. So does anyone have any suggestions as to what I could say?
Update: I wanted to wait until next week to tell friends but that didn't happen! I ended up telling most of them today (minus jokes! :lol
Thank you! It will probably go down as the most nerve wracking thing I've ever done. But my friends have been supportive and I've had a been really positive reaction so far. I'm also seeing some of them in a few days so I'm sure I might get more reactions :icon_redf
