    Well so I guess I came out. I'm still in shock about it, kinda wondering if it really happened. But anywho I guess I should spill the beans on this story.
    So I was staying up late last night, just chit chatting with some friends via IM. Everything was going great. Then I got a random PM from one of my friends that came out about a year ago. Just normal banter, "How is to be moved out?" "How is working going?" ect. ect. Well then out of nowhere he just asks if I was gay, straight, or bi.
    Me being an honest person I simply told him I was still figuring it out and that I would currently find myself between gay and bi.
    Just like that. A casual conversion. No drama, nothing. It was like someone asked me a simple question that I had the answer to. But the relief of someone else knowing is overwhelming. I'm just happy that I'm not bottling up it anymore :grin:

    That's cool, congrats on being out to somebody. That's kind of the way I came out to my brother (over text, since he lives on the opposite side of the country) and it was a similar non-drama.

    Isn't it nice to come out to someone who is all, "Eh, whatever" ? :icon_wink

    About 12 hours later I came out to my best friend. He already kinda knew, but I didn't like officially tell him until Friday afternoon. He was great about it :grin:
