    So this week I've come out to the rest of most of my good friends including my bandmates. Altogether that's 5 straight guys who have taken it unbelievably well and our relationships haven't changed at all! It's getting so much easier the more and more I do it. I'm really starting to live openly and it feels unbelievable! I'd really like to thank everyone on this website for the stories and inspiration you've given me, because last summer I was miserable and completely in the closet and then I joined this site, and less than a year later, basically all my friends are aware of my sexuality and okay with it. So again, thank you all! :icon_bigg

    I just finished writing to someone else that this site transforms lives. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that. Congratulations on coming out to your buddies!

    Whoa... post this message to a blog, so that you can refer others to it when they're at the place where you were. Anytime anyone is afraid of the consequences of coming out and is letting their fear keep them closeted, they need to read this.

    Congrats!! :icon_bigg
