    I came out to my best friend last night over IM. It was very hard to get the words out there, but I finally did it. His response wasn't as I expected(of course, I've always expected the worse), he said he was crying out of joy. He also said that night was probably one of the best moments of our friendship, because I've showed him that I can be completely honest.

    After that, he has been asking me a slew of questions about it. And I answered every single question truthfully(even the "What kind of guys do you like?" type of questions.)

    I'm glad I did it. I found myself, and I needed to tell someone.

    Just came out to this girl at my bus stop. I told her via text message. She told me that she still liked me for the way I am, and that someone came out to her before me. We joked after that.

    I feel like I just unloaded a wheelbarrow of bricks.:lol:
