well, first id like to say thank you, honestly. vie always been a lurker on this site, and today, I finally got up the courage to tell my best friend. it was not easy. to say the least, lol. even as I was instant messaging him I would glance over to other coming out stories for the courage to keep going. he has always made gay jokes and stuff like that, so I was a bit wary. After I convinced him I wasn't joking, he was completely fine with it. In fact his words were, no worries bro. lmao I'm just a million times more relieved. i don't know when I can tell my family, and i don't know if it will be soon. but i just seriously wanted to thank everyone here for the help. and to anyone who's afraid to come out to a friend, all I can say is, if they're truly your best friend, and you trust them, do it. :icon_bigg
That's exactly how felt after coming out to my really close friends. Glad to hear he handled it well. Congrats!
