    is around the week of October 11 I think? I want to do it before then.
    So I'm just writing it down here to help make it more official. I've set deadlines before and even made detailed plans and everything and then failed but hopefully this time it might work.

    To help motivate yourself, I suggest depriving yourself of something you really want and only get it after you come out. The first thing I'm going to do on Monday, September 13th after I come out to at least two more friends is head to Tim's for an ice cap.

    Best of luck, and keep us posted! :slight_smile:

    I thought it was October 11th? Is it Sept 13 for Canada?

    No, I think Eric's plan for 13th Sept is unrelated. Coming out day stuff happens here on Oct 11 too. Which also happens to be Thanksgiving this year though so it's a holiday.

    Yeah, it was unrelated. I was just using that as an example of what you could do. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I do anyway, always. even if someone says they are for fags and so on. its my little bit of living openly. and for some reason, i take 'fag' as a complement.

    good luck with it all. i have 400 people to come out to in 2 days so i guess i need it too
