Hi guys
Well I finally did it! Last night I told 3 of my closest college friends I'm gay - 2 of them were pretty shocked the other one said she knew deep down I was but was never going to push me by asking questions. I didn't tell everyone though, there were another couple of friends I had planned to tell last night but just didn't get the chance to speak to them. The 3 I did tell though were really supportive and actually felt honoured that I told them first! It felt like such a relief to tell them though and now I feel I'm on the road to coming out.
Now I've got to think about telling everyone else, including family. That is going to be hard but I'm not gonna rush it. The 3 friends I have told have promised to keep it to themselves but to be honest even if they didn't I wouldn't really bother.
Anyway I'll keep you updated!
