I came out to another person! In fact, it was a couple. It's a little weird, actually, but in a good way. I've always seen myself as living as a gay man in a very... domesticated way. House, dog, picket fence, all the rest of it. And that's what this couple does. They're gay, but it's not something they focus on all the damn time; it just runs in the background, and I think that's wonderful. But it's always been something that I've focused on all the time, probably because I've been trying so, so hard to make my gayness go away. But still, it feels like I've got people who I might, just might, be able to see as role models. Will we end up as friends? I don't know, it's way too soon to tell. But I think it's a really good step in the right direction.
That is cool. Good for you! As I have been coming out, each interaction has been a little different, but all have importance to me. So I can identify with your experience here.
