On the verge

**Bulvox** · 11-28-2007, 03:23 PM

Is anyone on the verge, or about to come out?

**Adrastus** · 11-28-2007, 05:32 PM

I'm pretty close to coming out i believe, however I could be wrong. I know no one will really care.. so but im afraid it'll fuck around with the guys at the school cause im not very close to many of them. :\ Thats the only thing holding me back

**Bulvox** · 11-28-2007, 07:01 PM

I have no idea when I am going to come out, or if I am. I mean I have built my entire life, my friends, around being straight. If I came out I would lose my best friend and it would just suck. I would lose almost all of my guy friends, and have alot of girlfriends which sucks, had that happen in the 8th grade. I don't know I am confused about everything right now.

I came out to my therapist a few weeks ago, my mother almost a year ago.

Scary.... its difficult to do.

Yea, I am very confused too! I don't know if I'm gay or bi, though prolly gay, and I know most of my friends would be against it and not accept me anymore, especially my best friend, and I'm not willing to loose our friendship over my coming out

On the other hand, I think my family would take it fine cuz one of my cousins came out a month ago and they were all fine with it, but I just don't think I'm ready.

im not to sure when ill do it, i think id rather wait till im out of highschool cuz i go to school with a bunch of immature retards. Family is kinda like half and half. Ive told like 4 friends and one of them got all "i can never look at him the same again" and shit so i got rid of him pretty quick.

You know .. as sad as it sounds, this is something you will have to deal with. Since coming out, I quickly found out who my friends were (actually .. I found out who weren't my friends). It's something tough to accept, the guys (or girls) you grew up with will quickly turn on you and make you feel like a freak, but you just need to walk away from it and realize that you're not the freak .. they are. Don't hide who you are to make someone else accept you.

If someone is your best friend, why wouldn't they accept you? If they can't even accept something like that .. then are they really a friend to you? Something to think about ..

There are over 6 billion people on this planet right now .. with an average of 5% of them being GBLT (at least open about it .. who knows how many closet cases exist) .. there are plenty of people who will accept you .. those are your true friends.

I'm not anywhere close lol... I haven't told anyone. I just don't know where to start

Matt Rools You · 12-09-2007, 09:51 PM

You guys never know if they will be accepting until you come clean with them. I would rather my friend tell me the truth than hide it... strike that. I would rather anyone tell me the truth than go around hiding it. Honestly, honesty is the best policy.

Man, I was sitting in school today and , just thinking to myself and this topic crossed my mind as i was texting my gay-friend from half-way across the country (that no one knows about, they think i met him on a video game or something ahaha). Anyways, i just realized i have to tell someone, or im going to go crazy so it wouldn't surprise me if i build up the courage to tell this person within the next few days, i have someone in mind, just gotta get her alone so i can to her seriously. Oh man, typing this is even exciting! I can't believe , i feel so sure right now, this just may give me that extra boost of confidence. Like its just so that one person knows, and thats it, for now anyways!

mare sure that you REALLY wanna tell her. I used to feel the same way you did and ended up coming out to a close friend. i regretted it later after my excitement calmed down.

**Adrastus** · 12-10-2007, 07:46 PM

Aha no worries i usually think things through very thoroughly before i actually act on something.

DubbLYU · 12-10-2007, 07:51 PM

^ ok, thats good. i hope all goes well. good luck!

**reminiscence** · 12-11-2007, 03:19 PM

I would now, but there's a girl interested in me, and everyone's making a big deal out of it, so I need a game plan to make things go smoother

Dan · 12-11-2007, 03:52 PM

Well if you don't want the girl it'd be a good excuse to get out of it.
