Story #298

When I came out I was 18 and I told a close friend and she said that just as long as I’m happy then who cares. I also told an uncle I was close to but that one did not go well; he disowned me and we still don’t talk and that was 15 years ago, but I still go by what I was told: “as long as I’m happy then to be what I am” then the others that don’t like it can just lump it.
