This is the week. This week will mark the week that I stop caring if people know about my sexuality and that I start being myself. This week I'm coming out to my class. I've got my fingers crossed that it will go okay. I'm really nervous though. It's so scary. I feel panicky just thinking about it. Does anyone have any tips for me? :help: Wish me luck!
Well I'm only out to a few people but I've always started with "This does not define nor change who I am..."
I did this with my weight training class during my Junior year in high school. Most of the class was extremely accepting, while a select few were disappointed. One girl even said she didn't think she could be my friend anymore because of it. I think she was afraid I'd hit on her, rofl. A lot of close-minded people think people who like the same sex find everyone of the same sex attractive. But in the end, she realized that she missed talking to me, so we stayed friends. She came to realize that I was the exact same person and nothing changed. How accepting they were was a shock to me, especially since I live in Alabama. So I have a really good feeling about you telling your class. If there are a few that don't accept it, just ignore them. Those who do accept it will be there for you and probably glare at the ones who don't, lol. Good luck! (*hug*)
Good luck I really hope it goes well for you. But if anyone doesn't accept you they don't deserve your friendship.
Good luck! You`re being very brave. Not that we should have to feel brave about something as natural as our sexuality, but coming out when you`re scared about it is really brave! Just remember that the most important acceptance should be from you Hope for the best *hugs!*
I did it. It went okay. Everyone was fine with it. No one really cared, to be honest. I'm just so relieved. I swear that was the scariest thing I've ever done. Thank you all for your support and encouragement. . It made coming out a lot easier to know that I had EC to turn to, however it turned out. You guys are awesome. (*hug*)
