I just thought that i'd share me experiences on coming out  .
I'm not out to my family, but I am to my best friends.......well, I was kinda forced back IN the closet by my parents  .
Last year I told my parents that I was Bisexual because I did not want to come out as fully gay then. Note to everyone else: DON'T DO THIS if your actually gay! Well, my mom hugged me and said it was fine, and not to tell my dad. I was happy...........but then she stabbed me in the back, so to speak. She WASN'T ok with it, and told my dad. My dad is an ABSOLUTE homophobe, and he's also VERY closed-minded. So guess what? I was sent to a psychiatrist, who was completelt biased AGAINST homosexuality....so I was forced back in the closet. They didn't consider my feelings for one second . My parents think that I was cured, which angers me  . Anyhow, so they are completely oblivious to my life.
2 Months ago, I was ready to come out to my friends because I just had that feeling that it would go well. We were going to have a bit of alcohol later as well, so I knew that it would be easier on me (I waited until I was 19 to drink by the way (legal in Canada where I live), and I drink sociably -- not to get drunk  ). Well it was only my second time drinking, and I got slightly drunk because I didnt know my limit all that well  , and that's when my friends asked me about girls (because I'm VERY chatty when i'm drunk, as they learned from the first time , and they knew that they could get answers from me then ).....and that's when I blurted it out. They were fine with it, and I was uberhugged by them ^__^. 
The next day, NOTHING changed! My life went on like it always did. Being gay didn't matter to them at all, and that made me really happy .
A few weeks ago, I decided to email my BEST friends about it. I couldn't find the courage to tell them in person, so I emailed them out of cowardice. But they're fine with it too ^__^.
So yay! I just have 2 groups of people to tell now....my family, and then the world  .
So that's it so far..........comments/concerns/advise is all welcome ^__^!
