What made me want to make this blog? It really started with a spark in the form of this guy, let’s call him Duke(he’s also gay). I met him over the summer at the beginning of August. We talked a LOT and we got to know each other really well. We talked, connected, and eventually met up for a date. He made it so I didn’t feel ashamed to be gay. I was able to be my whole self around him. He opened the door to me, because of him I decided to start coming out to the best of my friends. I began with my best friend, let’s call her Libby. I knew she was liberal and pro-gay to begin with but on the way to a concert, she asked me who I was interested in at the time. I told her “Duke”, she kind of already knew I was gay and she just told me that my sexual orientation isn’t a big deal and it shouldn’t be and people should be able to be with whoever they chose. I loved the acceptance. I was able to be open with her and Duke it was exhilarating. I had to tell more friends. So over the next few weeks up till recently I told most of my good friends. They all accepted me. I’m still afraid whenever I tell someone because some people don’t get accepted as well as I do. But I found that being open for the most part is good especially with a good support system of friends. So I thought of how I could adapt to being out with everyone? A friend of mine suggested I blog about it because whats better than to be out with the entire internet? So thats what I did and how this whole thing began!
