What did I just do?

Well, I built up the courage to finally tell someone that I'm gay, but I'm not sure if I did it the right way. If any of you have read any of my previous blogs, you may know that I have been fighting with myself so much lately, trying to find a way to come out. You may also remember that I had a friend in high school — a girl — who really wanted to date me, but I was too afraid to tell her I was gay. Well, today I mustered up the courage, but I did it through a message on Facebook because I don't have her number anymore and she still lives in our hometown. I don't live in our hometown anymore because I am at a University the next state over. Should I have done that? I explained that she was the only person I trusted telling this to and that I needed to get it off my chest, but I feel like it isn't a very good way to break news like this.

Also, she was completely fine with it. The first thing she said was, "this explains a lot." lol. She had such a crush on me in high school.

Well, I told three more people. This time, I did say it to their faces instead of over the internet. I should say the only reason I didn't tell the first friend face-to-face is because I am away from home and haven't seen her for almost a year.

Without knowing either of you my first thought is "well done you"! You've told someone and that's the big step, no matter how or when you do it. If she's a long-time friend (seems to me she probably is) I'm sure she will understand ... to her, things in the past might kinda "click into place", and she'll understand you better. I think you definately did the right thing in telling her that she was the only person you felt you could trust with this, and I hope that you explained that you don't have her number. If not, maybe you should message her again, apologising and explaining and ask her to call you so you can talk it over; maybe you could suggest you meet up next time you're home from Uni visiting your family. Yeh, OK she might have had an "OMG!!" moment but if she's a real friend she'll be OK with it. I think you've done the right thing, and I really hope it goes well with you from here on.

Everyone tells people differently. I've actually done what you have done, via facebook as I didn't have the courage to tell them personally face to face. I told a friend and then come to figure, he was gay to. I kinda had a hunch but we had a great long conversation through facebook chat. Now he and I hang out cuz we have a small support system. we go out and club it just to be around others knowing that we're not weird or what not. I told my older brother over Dinner in Vegas. We kinda quit beating around the bush and i had to finally come out or he was going to take me to a bunny ranch LOL. And my younger brother saw very rated R text messages on my phone, had a smirk but we talked later on that night and we became closer than ever, he's like my best friend now. Moral of my rant - go with you gut and how you want to come out , worst case scenario they will be upfront and ask you if you're gay or not. Then the ball is in your court. - I'm Chris, CA

There is no scripted way. It's different for everyone. The lucky ones whowere "FEM" from both and everybody just already new thet were gay. I say they were blessed.

It is just for you but have a good first step and that you entrust someone you're standing and the shower to yourself. Whether it's the right way, you can not say that everyone must try many things to know what is his way.
Homosexuals have not, unfortunately, still easy, but if we can not let things get. We have a right to live our lives.
