    If I feel the same way I do now next week, I am going to come out over Facebook. But should I? What happens if I don't, sure they won't know and it would harder to find a boyfriend until I'm old enough to go to the only gay bar in town. I am confused and not sure what to do next.

    I would usually recommend starting smaller, and telling one person you trust first. But if you are confident that you will be accepted, you can go ahead and do it over Facebook like that.

    Why the "all at once" approach?

    What kind of responses do you think you will get?

    You have no idea? From friends, family, parents?

    Well, some might be a bit proud or positive, most might not even read the message. In Dunedin no one is very anti gay so I am wondering if it is really nessescery.

    Even with my friends in real life they dont normally talk to me over the internet.
