    After viewing that movie that documented gay topics like religion, coming out, discrimenation and over coming it: I decided to tell my best friend.

    We went to see Sex and the City, started the ride home. My sister and her friend was with us so we hurried to the apartment. I texted her I needed to talk to her alone. We walked down the slope. She asked me "What is wrong?" all I could say was "Nothing".

    We walked to her car and I leaned up against it. She asked me "Do you need a hug?" I said yes and she just hugged me. We were there for 2 minutes just standing there, I was shaking and all I could say was "I am so angry at myself." She asked why and all I could say "I don't know why this happened to me." She said did I do something wrong, then I said "At first I blamed my father, now me..." I started to cry a bit.

    She held me and she said that it was ok, that she knew. She told me no matter what or where or when whenever I needed anything to just ask and that she loved me no matter what.

    My friend is a great person who is also gay and I love her for being supportive towards me. She has offered to take me to a support group to help with my questions and meet other people. I want to thank this website and all the people for giving me the resources and the courage to let go of myself. Thanks :slight_smile:
