I missed the second chance to come out to my best friend but then I texted her and finally came out. This is how I did it: *****Messenger***** -Hey Linh, I want to talk but I think texting would be easier. First I'd to ask you one question "you are always my best friend even though anything happens?" - yep, even you are a criminal. -after reading this please delete it -ok -don't let anyone else see this, ok? -yep -I think you already knew it but now I officially speak it out. I have received a lot of advices and support, and now I'm ready to tell you: Yes. I'm gay. -I already knew it. Don't worry. I always respect you. You are my friend and I will do anything to protect my friend. Everything's gonna be alright. ***** I started crying as soon as I read her words. But now I'm finally feeling free and comfortable
That first person and that first time you admit it to someone else (that you actually know) is so powerful. It took it a few days to hit me but the relief is almost overwhelming in and of itself! I'm happy you finally got your chance.
