    Holy shit. I just sent my text the longest text ever. It was more like a short novel. And I told him everything, about all the feelings I've had the past few months, all the doubts I have, the depression and isolation. 100% candid. The other two people I told I held back a few details, just got the point across but not this time. And the response?

    I'm his best friend, nothing would ever change that. We've been friends since 5th grade and he'll be there for me no matter what. I can always go to him, and he'll always listen.

    I have the best fucking friends on the earth.

    The first two coming outs were remarkably underwhelming. They felt great but I was left disappointed. This time though somethings different. I'm in a state of complete satisfaction, even if its just until I fall asleep right now. I'm on top of the world.

    Once again, I'll thank everyone on EC, the best place on the internet.

    PS...still haven't come out in person. Maybe to my brother one of these days

    Damn it I put this in advice, not coming out stories. I'm one of those people now who puts things in the wrong threads...I should act like I've been here before.

    That's fantastic to hear! I can only hope that my best friends will be just as accepting if/when I ever come out to them. Congratulations!
