last night was one of the hardest nights i have ever had i came out to my best friend of 9 years i spent over an hour trying to type a message on facebook to him and every time i ended up deleting it. i ended up putting "i want to tell you something because your my best friend and i trust you. i am gay" i wanted to type more but my hands where shaking and slipped and hit enter he seen it not even a minute later i was in a panic and i felt like i was going to pass out then he sent a message to me "Its perfectly okay :icon_bigg support you 100 percent of the way No I could never hate you :icon_bigg your my best friend" it was the best thing that happened i was so happy when he said that. now we are planing to go to the moves and hang out a lot more i did not see him much because i was hiding afraid he would hate me now i know how silly i was to think that even his girlfriend was happy to see me come out. now i dont care who knows or what people think of me because i have my mom and step dad and my best friend to support me and nothing will ever change because they love me for who i am and i also wanted to thank all of you for this great place and for all the story's of how you came out that gave me the courage to do something i never thought i could do (&&&)
Congratulations! That is super exciting and I am so happy that your best friend was so accepting and supportive. I am really happy for you
Congrats. I'm so happy for you. Coming out is really the scariest thing I've ever done and I'm 31. I'm amazed at how much courage young people have. Your post really makes me believe that we prepare so much for worst case scenarios that we under estimate how genuinely good most people are.
Congratulations that's amazing! exactly the kind of thing I imagine myself doing, and I would be SO happy and relieved to get such a positive response. I think I know how you feel
That Friend of yours is amazing, because he was so accepting of your sexual orientation and also because he said he would support you which is the best thing a person can say to you when you are panicking and scared and anxious over what their response would be or how they would react! So congrats And also good luck if you ever need a friend don't hesitate to contact me Sincerely,
