Story #1091

When I came out, I first told my best friend during lunch at school (I was 12). I wasn’t at all nervous because we had been friends for a really long time, and I was sure he would be supportive. He sat down, I said, “I’m a lesbian,” and he surprised me by telling me he was gay, too. Over time, almost all of our friends turned out to be LGBT+. I call us the Queer Team.
