    Got a call from some stranger looking to share my apartment since I threw an ad up on craigslist. Flat out told him I was gay but not out yet. His words? "So close the bathroom door, got it." Met up, he honestly didn't even care about my sexuality. Neat. Now if only I had the balls to tell any of my friends.

    Seriously, I've got this crazy mindset at the moment. I can apparently tell complete strangers without even thinking of it, but can't get the courage to tell someone whose opinion actually matters to me. What the crap.

    I think that's pretty normal. You can tell them because it won't hurt you if they reject you. The first people I told were vague acquaintances.

    Haha yeah it's quite normal to feel that way because you won't really care how a stranger feels about it more than someone you're actually close to :slight_smile: Although this gives you an opportunity to start a new friendship with someone who already knows that you're gay and doesn't really mind which could be a good thing :slight_smile:
