So lately, I have been debating on when/where/how to tell my coach that I'm gay. Knowing that if I waited until next week I would probably chicken out, I told her today quickly and simply. A few days ago I asked if she would mind helping me with a personal problem, and she said she would anytime. Everytime I've tried to go in her room so far, a girl I can't stand would be in there and wouldn't leave... So I went to her room during lunch. I pretty much just walked in and blurted out.. ".. SOO..this is had to do..but...I'm gay". At first she seemed shocked, but then she just said, "I'm proud of you"... Then I kept explaining to her a bit of my current situation... And she just kept saying that she was proud of me. Being that I didn't want to miss lunch, I rushed out of her room after 5 minutes quite abruptly... So when I got home I texted her and apologized for "dropping the news on her", and she sent me a text back that she loves me for who I am, and that this doesn't make any difference... After my moms horrible (and still-resistant stance) reaction, this made me feel much better. Now if I need someone to talk to I know that I can talk to my coach... Anyways, I figured that posting a positive reaction may help some of you guys be more hopeful! This is the 4th person I've came out to... Only a few let until my "list" of who to come out to is done!
It's so good to know that you have a big supporter, specially at school! Hope your mum turns more supportive with time
