    So I'm sure most of you have heard of myspace?

    Well, on the site you can post little bulletins. One of my best friends posted one and in it was a survey that said:
    "You have ten people, anonymous, that you can say anything to"

    This is what she wrote for the sixth spot:
    "6. I know you're a homosexual. I'll still love you if you tell me. Actually... I'm pretty sure I'd love you even MORE! I'm a big fag hag, remember? (This goes to 2 people)."

    I know the term "fag hag" generally applies to straight females and gay males, but I still had this inkling that she was talking about me... I told myself I wouldn't come out using the internet again, but it seemed like a harmless thing to do. Plus, I recently, as in the past week, decided I should come out to her. The problem was that I knew she wouldn't mind at all or find it a big deal, so I didn't know how to say it without making it into a big deal.. I'm not good at being passive about things.

    So I replied:
    "I know this probably has nothing to do with me at all, and that I shouldn't do this on the internet...

    But I'm a 6.
    I just kind of suck at telling people that in person."

    Her:
    "XD YAYAYAYAY! I love you RAAAACHEL!

    Haha, I'm trying not to overreact because I don't want it to be like a big deal or anything it's just......... EEeeeek, it's so exciting! I think everyone in the entire world should be homosexual!!!! XP They are way cooler than straight people plus the human population might just decrease a little. I hate people, btw. Wait... Even if everyone in the world was gay people would still want to make babies, wouldn't they. DAMNIT! There is no ESCAPE!

    Lol, That's me attempting to be nonchalant.

    Awwwww, Rachel. I'm so happy you told me."

    So um, haha I'm thinking it went really well, and it turns out the original message was about me as I had suspected. I asked her if she knew already and she said, "Yeah, I guessed... uuuh.... I have like supreme gaydar, just to let you know. XD I feel like an ass for like for not like... saying "Hey guess what I think I know!" ....Should I feel like an ass about that? XD I don't know... some people don't like being Outted."

    I was up until 4 am because we were messaging back and forth ever since that, and she also told me she was bisexual. I already knew it, but it was still comforting that she made it a point to tell me.

    I'm just really happy because although I'm out to my other three closest friends, she's the one I'd feel comfortable talking about just anything like that with. Prior to this, we tend to spend our lunch periods discussing Queer as Folk and The L Word :lol:
    Haha, no wonder she guessed.

    Congrats! That's great.

    I'm glad you didn't make it such a big deal... I agree - it shouldn't need to be a big deal but it's so tough not to let it get that way. I'm really happy for you!
