    Well I'm happy to have finally mustered up the courage to check the proper circle for "Interested In". I've come a long way so this is pretty brilliant. Was more or less just sort of in a "Wow, that was it? Really? ...Cool" kind of thing. c: Certainly glad that's done with!

    Yes, it definitely took courage to change it, and it's great that you have come to feel comfortable with yourself. Congrats! :slight_smile:

    That's exactly right! :slight_smile: Coming out is a big event, and something that you should definitely be proud of yourself for! Now you can celebrate who you are, from this moment on, and feel beautiful and confident in that. :slight_smile:

    We are all proud of you here on EC. :grin:

    I actually came out as gay, more so on Facebook initially. It's not how you come out, or by what means; what matters is that you actually came out! :grin:

    Did anyone notice? Congrats! Good job! I did that too this year, no one said anything though. No one looks at that stuff, besides me, because I'm a stalker.
    Anyway... I wonder what will happen when someone finally notices. :/

    Not that I know of. I mean, I don't think anyone really checks that stuff... I do the stalky stalk thing as well so oh well... >.> If anyone has noticed they have not said anything is all.

    Horrah for internet stalkers! Erm, that came out wrong. Horrah, for people who care to actually take part in features of a popular online site that no one else bothers to!

    I think we tend to more than "normal" people because most of us here are probably sensitive to little things, seeing as most of us are trying to keep a huge secret so we know and think about them, and end up taking a liking to little features like that. Or at least notice them. Maybe?

    Where you come out doesn't matter, it's the fact you took that step and did it! Well done :slight_smile: I came out to friends on twitter first and then later on facebook. Coming out was the best thing I've done in a long time and I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders when I did :slight_smile:
