So, the very first person I told was my brother, and that was last weekend (still not quite over that shock yet), and he's cool with it. I'm hopefully going to be hanging out with one of my two best friends this Saturday, just the two of us and I am preparing myself to tell her. I'm hoping I'll stay on a roll with telling people. I think she will deal with it better than our other friend, and I want to have her support (fingers crossed :icon_sad: ). Unfortunately my brother is younger than me and not the optimum person to turn to for advice/support since he's probably still dealing with me being gay. So I'm looking for some backup so I don't chicken out! :help: Wish me luck...
Good luck I'm sure you'll do fine. I don't think friends are usually hard to tell. They're probably going to be in shock at the most but will get over if because they won't just ditch you because they found that out.
Good luck! I think friends are great people to come out to because they're you're age (at least most of them) and it's more easy to talk to them about stuff like that. For me, at least.
Hey everyone thanks for the support. I told her, although it took me forever to say it. And I'll say it could have gone worse, she wasn't upset or really even surprised at all. She didn't say a whole lot, but we were in my car and I was dropping her off at home so it's not like we had a lot of time to talk either. So I just let her sleep on it and I am going to call her this afternoon and see where she's at. Hopefully she hasn't decided to freak-out between last night and this morning :rolleyes:
I've always found it best to let it sink in for at least a day, and then talk to them about it. That gives them time to digest it and sort through their feelings. Good luck
