    Finally... I've been out to anyone who asks for a couple months (not that anyone has asked) and most people important to me already know, but I haven't told anyone from my high school yet and there are a few big people in my life who still don't know. So I have sort of been feeling like I should hold off on this for a little while, but then today, I was on Facebook and I just thought there's no good reason to hide anymore. Any awkwardness this causes will be (1) short-lived, (2) helpful in the long run, and (3) not on my end. People can react however they want; that doesn't dictate how I live. And anyway, people don't usually check that, so hopefully it won't be a big deal.
    Anyhow, just thought I'd let y'all know I took this step. :slight_smile:
