Hey all Thanks for all the welcomes everyone. Anyway, as I mentioned in the introduction, I was planning on coming out to one of my mates today. Just sent the letter then (!) . Will speak to him tommorow afternoon during maths, so will see what he says then. The thing is, he wasn't actually my best mate, who i've known for 13 years. I've only known him for 5, but after some of my other mates commets, I felt much more comfortable coming out to him first. Feeling very confused right now, a mix between relief and feeling completely scared. Either way, so glad i'm out, even if it is just to one person . Anyway, off to work now.
Thanks for the support everyone. Yep it went great. Much better than expected, although I knew all along that he would accept it. Felt sick on the way there, but was worth it in the end. Was late, so everyone was already sat down when I got there. Was a bit uncomfortable for the first 5 mins, both said Hi. Then he just went "I don't care you know. And if anyone else does then I'll have a word with them". That was basiclly it. The rest of the maths lesson was just things we normally talked about it. No questions asked. Felt so relieved. Now have support, aswell as this forum, if something did go wrong. Still quite confused at the moment in disbelief, but I'm sure that will change in time. (!)
That's so great It must be a great relief to now have somebody accepting to talk to in real life as well as here!!! Well done
