well its started !!!

Hi all,well after reading here daily your inspiration was telling me to come out to someone.well after hearing a conversation between my DAD and partner(female) about a couple of xxxxing queers owning a local pub,(little did he know) I decided i would go one night.
Well two weeks ago i decided to go out which is very out of charactor for me.Obviously i went to this pub and yes a gay couple run it.I felt very comfortable when i ordered a drink.Then after a tiny bit of chit chat the barman asks me if i am gay,after a pause i just said yes but never acted on it up until now.He said we get a few come in,keep your eyes open.
After about 20 minutes i thought,that wasnt to hard and told two more women at the bar as they had included me in their conversation about there kids,husbands etc.There reaction was to find me a boyfriend ha ha.
Just tonight i went to see my homophobic dad and said the roumers would soon get around that i am gay.He asked what started this roumer.I just said it started at the said pub,and could easily be true.HE amazes me and just says its up to you its your life to do as you want.
Feeling sort of on top of the world i decided to go to tell my brother.well he makes a coffee and takes me to show me his new extension.I just used this rare opportunity of getting him alone and said i have come to the conclusion i am certanly gay.As he stared in shock i said and i dont intend keeping it quiet or lieing about it.He just said theres nothing wrong with that and i dont care.Anyway can you babysit tommow night.
So all in all a very good week and it certainly does get easier each time you tell someone.
Even though its hard,it does seem better done in peron as you can get someones reaction just from their face.
I just hope this helps someone else to get on a roll and get it over with.Homphobic dads can surprise you.Babysitting tomorrow night means nothings changed with my brother so thats all good to.Sorry for such a long post but alot happened in a short time.
