So, I have a friend (girl) that I don't talk to as much anymore, we used to be best friends and then she got a b/f and we drifted apart. It also didn't help that I wasn't out to her, it really put a distance inbetween us. Today after school, she was like "what's wrong? something's been bugging you lately". Also, I had been trying to do get together with her some time to tell her the truth. She'd always been to busy. So today, she said"Why can't you tell me now?". I replied "Not here- and I have to build up to it, it's not something I can just say like that". Finally, she dragged me outside and we went for a walk. I was like- "I don't want to tell you because you'll never speak to me again and you'll judge me and you'll tell everyone". I kind of had trust issues with her I guess... Well, after she reasured me, and we stopped walking, she started trying to guess, she was like "Are you gay?". After a short pause, I said "Um, not exactly, I'm bi". She gave me a big long hug (really special-since in France you don't do that usually) and reassured me that she didn't judge me. She kept on hugging me as we walked towards the gate, it was almost kind of annoying lol. She had this big smile on her face too. Later today, when I checked my mail, she sent me a letter and said "Hey, just wanted to say hi and tell you that I don't think you're wierd or anything and I'm not judging you". That made my day :icon_bigg
it's good to have friends like that. ones that make u, nto break you. and ones that support you through thick and thin.
That story is inspirational to me, and possibly a lot of other people who are just on the verge of coming out. That is exactly how I want my coming-out to my friend to be like. She has been one of my closest friends for years, but I don't feel as though I have the courage to tell her in person. I was telling her online that I had something that was eating me up inside that I needed to get out, but couldn't do then. Right after signing off, I wrote an 800 word letter that I plan on sending to her soon. I hope it turns out as well for me as it did for you.
That's great news. It's really wonderful that your friends can suppport you when telling them something difficult.
