    So I already texted a really good friend of mine earlier today asking if she wanted to go out for dinner with me and I told her that I have something really important to tell her. I can't believe I'm gonna go through with this! I've never been so nervous in my life!

    Wish me luck!

    Well it went just as I thought it would. I told her that I was gay.. and she said that it didn't change a thing! She had no suspicion either which I actually knew was going to be the case... can't always subscribe to stereotypes. We then started discussing guys and overall it was just a great night and I feel great for the first time in a long time! :grin:

    Thanks for all your support guys! :slight_smile:

    Good luck! Once you get it out you'll feel 10,000 times better!

    So that was the best night ever. PS: I love you... seriously, I'm your biggest fan.
