When I came out, my brother was visiting me in college and we hadn’t seen each other in a long time. I wasn’t planning on saying it but the timing felt right, and it was at night and we were watching “The Shining.” He stopped the movie, went to the cabinet and my kitchen and popped a bottle of champagne. He was ecstatic. He said he thought I might be, but he didn’t want to confront me before I was ready. We spent the whole night talking about me being gay, and he asked if there was anyone I had my eyes on, and how great it was that I was happy and how happy he was for it. Now here we are, 6 years later, and he’s agreed to be the best man at my wedding.
