    I am already out to my parents, and brothers. I have come out to several other people in my life, but none of my old high school friends until last night. I am 43, and went to High School a long time ago.
    I noticed one of my friends was running in the Ferndale MI Rainbow Run. That run is part of Ferndale's Pride Event. I further looked at her profile and found picture of an Ally pin.
    I decided then that I wanted to tell her. I messaged her on FB and arranged for a phone call. We talked for about an hour. About halfway through that I told her I was gay. She said "I am honored you told me."
    It really does get easier, the more people you tell. It continually feels better too, the more people you tell.
