Need advice about coming out

[LateBloomer]

Hello all,

It has been a while since I have been on this site. I think I might be ready to come out but I am scared to death. My parents are constantly asking me when I am going to get a girlfriend. And when they see someone gay on tv or hear about someone coming out they are disgusted. I am very close to my parents and don't know what I would do if they would reject me. As far as my life, its pretty good. Lots of friends, great job, my own home. But I just have that empty feeling and wanting more. I want that someone to hold. And I'm 22 years old and i'm a virgin. So when I see my straight friends in my pool, it takes alot to hold back my emotions which I'm sure you can understand. Well I have an oppurtunity to move out of town and start a new career. I am thinking about taking it and kind of starting a new life that way, in case my parents want nothing to do with me I think it would be easier being away from them. I am tired of waiting and want to live my life as ME and not as a lie. Any advice?

Yeah babe.
Go for it.

Scariest thing you'll ever do.

But once it's done, wow, ton of bricks off your back.

And I love the idea of FRESH STARTS. That's totally what I'm doing. Moving far away from where I've been living. Toughest thing I've ever done, but I've got high hopes.

Best wishes. Keep us posted.
