Story #707

When I came out, I came out to my gay best friend. I wasn’t happy with myself for being lesbian. I had always been told that homosexuality is wrong (it’s not), and me and my friend would spend every Friday night together talking about LGBT+ and what it means. He also taught me to accept myself for who I am, not what society wants me to be. I was finally confident with who I am, and was ready to come out to everyone. Me and my friend made an announcement during an assembly, and I came out to everyone.
