Well i just wanted to share this coming out story because I am literally overbrimming with happiness right now lol. I have been wanting to tell my guy best friend that I am gay for over a year now, and just last night I got up the courage and finally told him. This entire time I have been thinking of worst-case scenarios and seriously preparing to lose him as a friend.....but I still felt the need to tell him. Well right after I said it, his first impression was " omg this is actually so cool! but idk why haha". i was literally blown away. I just stared in disbelief and he assured me that i am his best friend and he is absolutely ok with it....and this is a guy who almost never gives away any emotion. Since last night, i have been spending all day just going over that conversation again and again in my head. In one sense, I have never been so happy. But I feel like its beyond that. I am just sort of in awe, I have to keep telling myself it WASNT a dream. Needless to say I havent been this happy in a long time.
I am so happy for you, your friend sounds really cool. This story has made me happy because I am terrified of coming out due to the same fears you had. Hopefully my friends will react the same when I eventually come out
That is awesome! Even with the friends I wasn't worried about, I still released a breath I didn't even know I was holding when they said they accepted me! Congratulations buddy, that is a huge step!!!
Thanks everyone! And yeah, this was probably the hardest thing ive ever had to do but now I am soooo glad I did it
