    I am now out to everyone (except for my father, for the time being). Being a bit of a coward, I posted a video on Facebook rather than send individual messages to people. Well, the video's on youtube, but I posted a link on Facebook.

    I'm a bit nervous, to be honest, but I'm done hiding who I truly am.

    Well, so far, the reaction on Facebook has been super-awesome and amazing. Every person who has commented thus far has done so with an offer of support and hoping I can begin to heal. No one's defriended me either, though that may yet be coming....

    WHOOPS. I didn't realize someone else had replied. Sorry about that. They meant heal in terms of being able to accept who I am, move on with maybe getting into a relationship, stuff like that. They all know how me and Dad are, and I mentioned in my video about my difficulties with him, so it's out there for anyone to see. Most of the family, even the Mormon ones, are not all "RAH! HATE ON GAYS! RAH!" My dad's the only hold-out. Well, and my bitchy Aunt on my mom's side. I still don't know how SHE found out. I had defriended her previously. Or maybe she just suspected somehow. Eh...
     
  6. Congratulations on coming out! :grin:
