Tomorrow is the day. I was going to wait until I was traveling to the other side of the country so I'd have some space, but I don't want to, and I don't think I can. As nervous as I am, I'm ready now. Everyone who should be told in person has been. Tomorrow I'll jump online and come out all the way. I'm still not quite sure how, but I'll figure that out after I get my anxiety under control. :icon_eek:
Good luck , I wish u all the best and hope it goes ok . I may have come out to friends but my family no way .
Thanks everyone. I'm on the verge of chickening out right now. Been staring at the computer screen for about four hours. :***:
If it isn't too late and you haven't yet, I urge you to do it. I haven't yet, and I regret everyday that I don't. Don't let this opportunity escape, it is your time.
Thanks for the encouragement. I haven't given up yet, but I'm still struggling to get to the point where I don't feel like I'm about to puke all over my boots.
Just like you said in your original post: Everyone who you wanted to tell in person has been told. I assume these were the ones you thought were most important in your life. Everyone else is just the icing on the cake You have so much courage and you can do this!
Oh gawd. I did it. Got to everyone that I could on my list. Now I just have to wait for them to notice. I'm shaking. Time to go take a long drive to calm myself down. Thanks again everyone
Congrats, we knew you could do it! Now if only I could tell the people important in my life so I could get to that point that you're at now....
Congratulations!!! This is so important. It will take stress off of you, and change people's attitudes. The best thing we can do is just be ourselves and let other people deal with it. This is why we are such interesting people, because of how much we go through to just be ourselves.
I do feel less stressed. I'm still kind of in shock, but definitely less stressed. No one has said anything yet, but I know almost everyone has seen what I posted. Honestly, I'm not expecting anyone to say anything, and that's ok with me. I justed needed this out there so I could be me. I feel free now, and it feels good
