Need third party thoughts for me coming out

[TigerLover]

Well these days when someone comes out to friends it usually goes one of two ways. Sometimes there are fireworks, lots of shouting and accusations of tricfkery and lying. But far far more often people just shrug and say "ok whatever". Then all that tension and anxiety just sorta fizzles out and you feel like a real tit for waiting so long.

But the big deal is coming out to family, especially parents. In their heads they've got all those dreams of you walking down the aisle with a pretty girl and giving them cute grandkids, Cycle of life and all that.
Thats where the sparks usually fly. Parents are often dissapointed when their children are gay and in that dissapointment they might say and do some unpleasent things.


So assuming that your friends aren't homophobic I recommend coming out to your friends first to build your confidence and get their support. Then move on to family.

Oh and personally no I don't think you're going too fast. But like you said I don't know what's going on inside your cranium.
