For the longest time only my therapist and husband knew about my sexuality. My husband found out, I didn't come out to him and it's definitely not soemthing he's ok with and because of that I've lived sort of in shame, keeping my sexuality a secret, though I desperately wanted to tell those closest to me. I'm now out to five people. Five! I drunkenly told a close friend of mine about two months ago and that went great. Today, I told two of my friends. I was at lunch with my close friend and just casually dropped it into conversation and then from there I decided I was going to tell my best friend. And I did. I called her and told her. I feel great. I feel validated. My friends weren't shocked, in fact, they were kind of like "yeah, that makes sense with you". They were amazing. Though I never thought they'd be anything but amazing. I'm really proud of myself.
