    To my mum at least. And it feels... Great! I told her a while back, but I haven't been on here for a while, and thought I should tell you guys. She took it great, and now I plan on going to an LGBT group close by to me. If you are hesistating about coming out, and your family/friends are not homophobic, then I tell you, it is the best feeling in the world, being able to feel the ability to seek a partner, and not hide your true self. I've told one person, and for know that is how it'll stay. But I plan on telling everyone one day, and that day I will truly be liberated. So yeah. I'm out to my mum, and I feel great! :icon_bigg

    Thanks so much <3 I've literally just contacted the LGBT group, and plan to attend their next meeting. Can't wait! But nervous too, understandably so.

    I was brave at the time, but I broke down in tears about two seconds later xD But my mum just hugged me, and told me to stop being such a cry baby, and she loved me no matter what. xD

    I've been thinking about coming out to a friend of mine, but I haven't made a decision yet.

    Great to hear another positive coming out experience! I'm also thinking of coming out to my mom so that I can go to an LGBT group, and this is giving me a bit of hope that things will go alright.
