    I just came out to the family (mum, dad and sister)... And they were so great about it (!)

    I didn't know that I was going to come out, or what I was going to say, so I just kind of blurted it 'I'm gay'

    My sister then proceeded to hug me while I cried (which doesn't happen often), then my dad and then my mum.

    I guess I wanted to tell you guys because I want people to know that coming out it never as bad as you think it is going to be.

    It gets better.

    Great to read your news. It's always good to hear when a family is accepting and supportive and I hope it's lifted a weight now you have told them.
