    Wow that was scary. But I feel so much better for it and some people are already showing their support :slight_smile: I still haven't told my parents though. I will eventually. But that is besides the point. It was a scary moment that I had to work up to be I am really excited and proud that I did it. We will see what happens now.

    Everything has been positive! I mean I don't think anyone would share negative stuff publicly but I am so excited :slight_smile: I actually had a guy who was a friend of a friend message me and tell me how cool it was I could come out to everyone. He told me that he came out to his parents but was too scared to tell everyone. He is a super awesome guy and we have been talking basically all afternoon :grin: he is kinda cute.

    Amazing what happens when you put yourself out there. We will see what happens :slight_smile:

    I can't say it enough how amazing the support has been. I had two more people I am close with personally text me today saying how courageous it was to come out and how proud they are of me. It just makes me so happy :slight_smile:

    congratulations on your bravery.


    I have not yet posted a message on Facebook declaring what I am, but I have changed my profile to the correct Orientation.
