    So I was going to come out to my best friend last weekend. I failed miserably, and chickened out. So today I know it is National Coming Out Day, so I told myself this morning I HAVE to get it over with and call him after work. Well I got home from work, and was really worked up and nervous. I decided to go for a walk to calm myself down before I called. I was walking for probably an hour and realized I wasn't going to calm down until I did it or chickened out again. I quickly called him so I couldn't chicken out again.... Well I could barely hold the phone against my ear because I was shaking so bad, then he answered.... I said hey and then said you know how I have been wanting to talk to you for a while? Well this is gonna be awkward but I like guys and girls....after what seemed like the longest pause ever which was probably only 5 seconds, he said he kind of figured that anyway. We talked about it for a couple minutes, he made sure to remind me that we are best friends and I should know he won't say anything to anyone. We then just went into talking about the normal stuff we would talk about any other day for probably 10-15 minutes then said bye. I literally started jumping up and down from being so happy it went well!!!! Thanks to everyone here who gave me advice, I needed it!!:eusa_danc

    My favorite thing about it all was how we just kept talking like we always do. That made me feel so good because I was worried it would change how he acts around me. I was only ready to tell him, but I might have the courage to tell a few more friends now
