    Well over the past months I have been slowly coming out, started with my sister in December, then a few months later told a friend, then my parents, etc. Several of my friends have known for like a month now and everythings cool, my family all knows now and their all cool about it too. But now I just changed my facebook status to let everyone know :slight_smile: so yeah everyone will know soon enough (still not relatives though, don't care if they know or not)
    It feels GREAT!

    Just want to say thank you all on this site, it has helped me through this all and made me feel good about myself. Looking back at my first post you can tell that I never even wanted to come out and I was even afraid to say I was gay on the internet! Which that was my first time even coming out online which was even hard for me to do.

    Didn't think this would happen anytime soon when I first joined, but now I am out and feel so much better about myself. :icon_bigg

    thats cool, I am proud of you, esp since recently you were recently afraid to use the term gay to identify yourself with.
