    Hey I told my friend that I was gay about 3 hours ago and she was not really that supporting of me and was quite angry that I had told her but I was worried that she would tell people at school about me :frowning2:.

    About half hour ago she sent me a text saying something like " sorry I reacted that way and I really don't care that you're gay and I won't tell anyone :slight_smile: promise", I really hope she means it.

    Yay that is 5 close friends down another 2 to go :grin:

    Congrats!
    Often times the shock can be overwhelming for the people you are coming out to... Sometimes it just takes time. :slight_smile: Either way, congrats on coming out to your friend! (!)

    Congratulations! I'm still too scared to even try this. How did you do it? When is the right time? I feel so uncomfortable around my friends and family because I've lived this lie practically my whole life. I just want these uncomfortable feelings to be gone. If you could share some advice with me I would really appreciate it!

    I'm happy it ended well :slight_smile: Like someone said earlier sometimes the initial shock can take a bit of time to get over. I hope your other coming outs go well.

    Most of the people I've come out to have been all like "oh, okay. you sure?" That's about it. It was underwhelming. I don't know if that means it's obvious or that they really just don't care. But either way congrats!
