When I Came Out

When I came out to my best friend as bisexual, she comforted me as I was worried. She totally accepted me and I’m glad she did. A year later, she’s pansexual, and we’re crushing on each other LDR style.

When I came out as a lesbian (a couple of hours ago) to my closest friend, she said that she didn’t care because it didn’t change who I was. I’m so glad I finally worked up the courage. I love my friend for being the person that she is.

When I came out to my big brother, we were both fighting about how he wasn’t the only one in the world with personal obstacles he had to overcome. With tears in my eyes and a tremble in my voice I told him: “Like, I’m gay, and I live every day putting up a false front and living in fear of being discovered.” He hugged me and told me that I’d always be his brother no matter what; that gave me strength.

When I came out this morning it was amazing. Me and my mother were on the top of a mountain and when I said, “I got something to say to you” she replied, “Do you wanna leave the school?” but I started to cry and she understood what I was talking about. She was great and she said that nothing was changed between me and her and she loves me more than ever. Love from Italy to all the gays in the world!!!

When I came out to my sister, I kept repeating “I am…” Then I finally spilled out the word “gay.” She didn’t care. And that made the night amazing.

When I came out to my friend I was really happy because he was the first person to know, and what surprised me was that he came out to me in the same day. We’re now very happy.

When I came out to my little sister as gay, she said, “What does that mean?”

When I came out at my current age of 17, I did so to a really good friend and camp counselor. He was gay himself and completely understood what I was going through as he was going through some of the same things too. I now really want to come out to my immediate family but idk, I get really anxious when I think about it.

When I came out, it was on the 18th of July to my best friend and he came out to me at the same time. So we started going out and we told the people who we trusted and from then everything has been great.

When I came out I prayed really hard because I thought it was wrong. When God very clearly explained it was how I loved, not who I loved that mattered, I figured I was deluding myself. That seriously pissed off God so I really did get the message! Don’t argue with God! I’m glad too because the next thing I did was to talk to my pastor, who told me I could either be gay or be a member of the church but not both. Well, I don’t think I could have been better prepared for a line like that! Beware of “gate keepers.” God is as much yours and mine as anyone’s!
