Re: coming out 4 the first time tomorrow! Stay confident and calm and dont make it a big issue.Simple and to the point.
Re: coming out 4 the first time tomorrow! I'll try! thank you so much...!! I forgot all about keeping it simple, and easy
I was really scared my first time coming out too. Just say what you have to say. It's kinda like a hot bath. It seems really hot and you don't want to go in. But once you're already there, it's actually not that bad. Usually it does feel better than just keeping the secret all bottled up.
I came out recently!! You got nothing to be afraid of, just gotta get that one little push. ITS A GREAT FEELIN! I love the rush of coming out, its the best feeling ever. She's your friend and supports the LGBT community! Don't worry, you have pretty much nothing to be afraid of!! Good luck
Its great that you feel ready to go for it! The day and moments right before you say it are ridiculously hard and you will get really nervous, but you just have to push yourself and say it! Best of luck! (moved the thread for you and merge the threads. If you ever need a faster reply feel free to ask in the Ask The Staff Forum )
Just take a deep breath, and come right out and say it. Believe me, it feels SO good to be out to even one person. It's highly addictive- before you know it, you'll be out to everyone! lol I'm not sure about that last one, but the point I'm trying to make here is that being out to a good friend is great. good luck!
"Highly addictive", bookworm; are we using coming out as a drug?! Though I agree that I now want everyone to know! Good luck, Scandanavian!
