    Tonight, me and my best guy friend both came out to one of our really good friends (me as gay and he as bi). She was the last person that I wouldn't want to find out from anyone but me...so I think I'm ready. I'm going to get together with my three best friends next weekend and, with their support, come out on Facebook. I'm scared as hell but ready. The four of us will leave the house right after so I wont have the opportunity to go back and quickly change it. I can't even begin to describe the impact this is going to have at my 2600-person school. I'm really well known. This'll be interesting.

    Finally, I can see the light at the end of this tunnel.

    Yes - hope it all goes well and he response is overwhelmingly positive (or, maybe even better "Oh yeah...so what?").

    Good Luck!!

    2600 people!?!? I couldn't imagine going to a school that big. My high school has 500, and the entire district only 2000.

    I admire your bravery. Again, Good Luck!

    In comparison to you, I'm quite pathetic. I haven't even come out to my best friends :confused:

    Wow! Best of luck to you! That's a brave step to take. Do tell us how it goes as people find out. As Ty once said, "I do so love a good coming out story." :icon_bigg

    Coming form a large school myself (3000+) I can relate to the feeling of having so many people know. But, I hope everything goes great and wish you thebest of luck.

    If you have the support of 9+ people I think you'll be able to pull through this.

    Lut us know how it goes
