So, I posted in June about how I had a crush/friendship end incredibly badly, and how even though I was really upset at first, eventually I realized I was better off for it having ended. Anyway, one of my friends, who really is my BFF (*hug*) ('best friend forever' for those who are unfamiliar) helped me get through it by helping me realize the ex-friend wasn't really ever a friend, considering the way he treated me. I never told my BFF the entire story, but we're likely gonna hang out this Saturday night, and I want to tell him, just because I feel it will finally give me that last ounce of closure. Now, should I tell him the whole story, or should I condense it? The reason I'm asking is because the gay guy I was in June is not the gay guy I am now, and I'm really a better person in nearly every conceivable way -once again, directly due, in part, to the BFF - and I want to emphasize how my BFF's actions led to it. I know this is confusing (I'm not entirely sure what I'm asking advice on either) but this really is the clearest I can say it. Thanks! Twisty P.S: My BFF also partly inspired me (he doesn't know but I'm telling him on Sat.) to write the thread "My Advice About Being LGBT and Christian" that is currently in the S&A Resources sticky, so if that thread has helped anyone, thank the BFF for it (I'll accept any gifts of candy or money in his name ).
That's probably the smart thing. Just saying something like "Thanks for helping me see what kind of person Frank really was. I was kind of besotten with him for a bit, but I'm glad to be beyond that now." Lex
