    Ok well, I first came out in 9th grade to my best friend and she said she had no clue I was gay but loved gay people so she was fine with it. :lol:
    She was the only one who knew for a while and she kept my secret but once my sophomore year started I suddenly got an interest in fashion and was getting vogue and W every month and I started dressing way better and gained more confidence. After this sudden change in personality from my old shy timid self I didn't care what anyone thought about me so one day this guy asked if I was gay and I said yes.. the next day I told all of my friends and now im happier than ever cause I can express myself however I want. :icon_bigg

    Thanks for sharing. I can relate that
    I care more about my appearance after coming out to my close friends. I am more confident and not afraid of others rejection since I still have my close friends who always accept me.

    That's cool!

    I kinda have the same thing going on right now. I told a few people, just as a secret. Within a few days, I told everyone I knew, never been happier.
