    I was just wondering, who has come out of the closet. I mean, to your parents about who you are. If you have, I would like to know your coming out story. I am still in the closet and I really want to come out but I am terrified of how my parents would react. I would like to know how your parents or loved ones reacted. Who did you come out to first? If I were to come out to one of my family members first, it would probably be my grandmother because I am closer to her then my own mother and she would be the most understanding. So it would mean a lot if you could tell me your coming out story.

    I really don't have any advice about coming out to people like parent. It would help if you knew your parents view on gay people. I know that my father is 100% against it but my mo has a few gay friends. But I am still scared to come out as well. I just thought I would bump up your post so more people would see it, also it might help if you repost in the coming out section. :slight_smile:

    I'm new here so I don't know how to do very much. Do actually know my parents view on it. My mom and step dad are 100% against it and my grandmother is the only one I mention the my best friend/girlfriend was lesbian so I feel like I could trust her. And thank you for commenting so more people can see this. I really appreciate it.
