    So yeah. All in the title. Friday night I sent a message to a friend, a girl-friend, saying I was gay. She was the only person I can think of who is 100% supportive of LGBT people, and she was! Today (monday here) she finally responded and said she was honored she was the first person I told and that she sees me no differently, and she was saying not to worry when I graduate I can move to a place a lot more friendly and I can meet a cute boy blah blah. Point was she was very supportive, because now I can talk to her about my crushes and my desires (well can I have) and it's great! And she also gave me a list of people she knows who are also supportive for Gay rights (I was never too sure before) I feel good. I finally did it properly. And you know it was partially thanks to EC I got the confidence. And the TV show Please Like Me (an Australian show..it kinda gave me motivation). Anyway Thanks EC!!
