Come out from the closet!

Monday, November 16, 2009

After much hesitation, I've admitted it to myself. I am indeed more homosexual than I am straight. It's something that is very difficult to spit out. But yeah, there is no denying why I come to this conclusion; I'm most often turned on by gay images, videos, etc. It occurred to me about few years ago and has slowly become more obvious and dominant. Still, of course, I'm in the closet.. and the reason that I may never come out is that the people around me would shun the admission.. my family, my friends, etc. I would certainly have to leave this area and start a new life if I wanted to come out of the closet and be true with myself. Ultimately, I guess that I care what people think about me. I don't want to risk ruining relationships with people that mean a lot to me. It's screwed up, it's not right.. I really just wish that people would be more open minded about such things. But unfortunately they're not, and so I will continue to hide the truth. (4 months ago)

Sometimes we think our friends and family will shun us; but we don't really know how they'll react. Thought for sure some family would not approve, but they've been very supportive. Go slow .. try with a close friend or two. It is indeed a very painful, private process that feels like torture inside. There are people here to support you, and there must be people in your life that care about YOU, no matter if you're gay or not.

Those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind. =)) [4 moths later]

If your friends are true they will not really care that you are gay. Yes they may be shocked or surprised at first but given time and information they will realize you are still the same person they always knew. And the ones that shun you for your sexual orientation, well, you might want to question just how good a friend they were to begin with.

Do not ruin your life living in lies!

I'd came out from the closet, do not hide yourself in the closet.

I have a brand new life now. How about you?
