I came out. Yay me.

Good for you, mr.p! Sounds like your best friend is a good guy, too. :) I'm glad it went well for you and that it brought you some relief.
 
As my husband is fond of saying, "I said 'I do'", I didn't gouge my eyes out. I can look (and perhaps lust in my heart just a little), as long as I don't touch ... or don't touch ... too much. :devil:
In the immortal words of my Uncle Mike: "Just because I'm on a diet doesn't mean I can't look at the menu." :cool:
 
Aren't you married? :D

Yeah. What's your point? :lol:

Wish my last GF had been like you. :(

I have to say I'm pretty lucky in that regard. From early on, there wasn't a lot jealousy shite. We started early on pointing out guys we thought the other would find attractive. it's funny, though ..., over time we've begun to look more and more like each other and our taste in men has grown closer together ... sort of like what people say about people and their dogs. :lol:
 
^ So you've never gotten yelled at because when you were ordering lunch, you made eye contact with the person taking your order? You're lucky...
 
Rod is a little pudgy... but I don't care. I still think he is yummy.

Pudgy? I wouldn't have said that, but I haven't seen him in a few years. (Let's see, I have his phone number around here somewhere... ;) )

Do you accept bribes? :devil:

:lol: I do, but not for celebrity contact information. It comes with the convention-running territory, and my reputation in the community is worth more than any mere bribe. :p

Now, an exchange, perhaps... do you have Matthew Broderick's phone number? ;)

Well, let's see .... I have a friend ... who's wife's cousin's boyfriend was Sarah Jessica Parker's stand-in's hair dresser ... once ... about 10 years ago ..... I'll see what I can do.

*Starts dialing furiously.* :lol:

And the experience had such an impact on your young psyche that you decided to grow a mustache as soon as possible? :p
 
Congratulations! You have a great friend.

I've seen it from the other side. Two of my friends came out to me. Both were worried what I'd think and how I'd react, but I had suspected they were lesbians for a while before they really did come out. It wasn't just that they didn't date or appear to have any interest in guys, somehow I just knew. So it was a relief to everyone when they finally came out.

I was painfully shy in HS and barely gave the guys in my class the time of day. Lots of people thought I was lesbian, but I wasn't. Just shy, insecure and socially inept (as many teens are, some are just better at hiding it than others).
 
I'm sorry to bring up an old thread but I just wanted to say how much I appreciated reading all the comments that people made.

Basically I am gay and I have been living a lie for pretty much my entire life until today. I 'came out' to two of my friends. They were great about it and now I just want to tell everyone. Reading this thread really helped me so thank you.

Glad to have helped and good luck! *hug*
 
A resounding "Well done!" to Mr Troi, too. Be strong, guys: the day when "coming out" won't be such a big deal is not far away. Thanks to people like you. :techman:
