    So I just came out on FB which = 95% of my real friends, and a third of the school (approx. 200 people) Whew...:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:ride:

    Congratulations! I'm happy for you, it takes a LOT of courage to come out to that many people all at the same time!

    Thanks kiersten :slight_smile: coming out to 300 + people is sort of frightening. But I felt really good after. I'm so happy that you were able to come out to your friend too :grin: Luckily everyone was reeaally nice about it, but one guy thought I got hacked...

    I'm so happy that everyone is being supportive for you! (*hug*) I know I was really happy my friend was understanding too & we're going to get together on Wed to talk some more about it. At least I have one person I can be myself around now...

    Congratulations! It does take a lot of courage to come out on Facebook to that many people. I came out of FB to 350 people about a few weeks ago and I've had very positive support so far, I hope it turns out well for you! (!) :slight_smile:

    Holy crap kid, you got STONES. It took me 7 years to tell my gf I like guys.... and she already had it figured out.

    Give that man a cigar I say.... there's never the appropriate emoticon for my gestures

    Congrats!!!!!

    You know ever sice i created my fb profile i say clearly that i am gay, at the time none of my family members were on facebook. I did not come out to my cousins, aunt and uncles myself, they all lived in SA and I in Namibia, but thanks to fb everyone now knows... and non of them had a problem with it.

    Congrats and feel the awesome power of FB lol
