Well, last saturday night i finally worked up the courage to come out to my best friend who ive known since i was 5 (im nearly 18 now). I wasn't really sure that he would even have a problem with it, but i was still terrified that it might change our friendship. I worked up to it by telling him about the underage i went to in the city, i then worked into the conversation that it was actually for gay/lesbian people. When i told him, he just grinned and asked about it and how i found out about it . Afterwards we went and saw spiderman 3, and we just joked about the corny love scenes and stuff like we usually do. He'd mentioned that he needed a little time to get used to the idea of me being gay, but he didn't treat me any differently because of it :icon_wink. So now that ive told him i feel a lot more confident about coming out to other friends. I'll probably start in the next few days:icon_bigg.
oh wow thats really good! I think it's most terrifying when you've known the person for ages, but that's really cool that he's accepted you what was spiderman 3 like?
(*hug*) well done, glad it went well. i got a "is that it?" closely followed by a "i knew", still makes me smile when i think bout it, shame i harldy see him now...but I wouldn't change what happened
Hey, thanks for the support (*hug*), reading through this forum has really encouraged me to come out. I've since told a couple more people and they were totally cool with it. One of them said he'd suspected but wasn't sure if i was just metro :lol:.
