Hey everyone, I have been around this forum for a little while but I have never posted anything. Now I felt it was about time to break the silence Having the first year of college behind me, I am now confident that I am gay. (Wow, writing this down feels really weird:S) In the past year, I had random kisses with girls and didn't feel too much. But I also had some not too serious hookups with guys which had a huge impact on my perception of who I am. I have been struggling with the idea of being gay since the age of 13 and I have been though every single "traditional" stage most gay people go through, such as denial. I am not out yet. I really would like to come out to my best friend (who is, surprisingly a girl) but I just couldn't get to it yet. I am most likely telling her this week, on Friday or Saturday and I actually can't wait to do so. I am really not worried about her reaction as I know she is not a homophobe and our strong friendship has been lasting for about 10 years now. But this is why I kinda find it strange that she doesn't see or feel that I might be gay. But, of course, she might. We will see this coming weekend ([or shall I say this coming out weekend?]. I feel kinda lame as I have no special stories to tell you right now but I hope it will change soon :smilewave
Welcome xalex... As about special stories... you do have it, you just don't see yourself and your situation as special, but for those of us outside of your life it is special. Open up and share and you will be amazed at the responses you'll get... Welcome once again.
Hey welcome. Just so you know, I wouldn't be afraid to tell you friend. From my experience girls seem to get more excited to find out their guy friends are gay. I mean, they can relate to you more that way right? It makes me wish that almost all of my friends weren't straight guys =/
