    so pleased! he was really nice about it. totally accepting, and he gave me lots of support and encouragement! feels so great to have told an adult in person. also, somehow telling him has made me more sure of myself. as time goes by, i feel like i am slowly but surely becoming more accepting of myself, although i do have lapses. i feel so glad!!

    (!)

    have changed "out status" to some people :wink: and orientation to "les? bi?" not "bi? les?" because that is how i am leaning atm. lol

    well done, that's excellent. I wish I'd had the courage to tell my tutors, head of years, etc back when I was at school and college. Instead I spent a lot of time skiving, which could just have been avoided if i'd have spoken to people about what was going on.

    Well done!!!

    Congrats!!

    And you're right, coming out to people can make you very different. Nowdays I'm very sexually open around everyone, I'll hug and touch anyone I see. :grin:

    That's great. :icon_bigg I'm proud of you. At least you have he courage to tell someone outside this forum. I think if I were to tell someone outside this forum it would have to be under the form of "liquid courage" :grin:

    Congrats again!

    That's really good. Coming out is a process - not an event! Over time and with practice it gets easier. Good job!

    That's really cool, and I'm glad he was supportive. It's really good to hear about people actually managing to come out and getting good reactions - I'm really glad it went well! I think it probably helps when you get good reactions to start with so you don't lose courage, and you can also get their support, and not be on your own.
