Well, more of a question than a story, so sorry for the misleading title. I have a website (http://phoenicia-ships-boats.com/gay.html), and I've put basically a note that says about me being gay, what I think of myself like, and what being gay is. It's not fancy or anything, but it's easier, unique, and more descriptive. So, what do you think?

I don't fit the stereotype either.
The best advice I can give you is, when you do come out, don't mind what other people call you. Just brush them off. and if it is irking you, then I'm here for you :))

good on you :D

as above said, when you do decide to come out properly, you have to be ready for the lash back. there will be the odd jibe at you and bad remark, but just brish them off, ignor them. but you will also find a greater peace with yourself and feel more you than you were. and never stereotype yourself, you are you but if you want to stereotype then that is ok, i guess i kinda am a stereotype lol loves pink, skinny jeans etc lol

if you ever need to talk, im here :)

I understand that coming out will be hard but greatly satisfying to me. I'm just curious if it's worth it. Should I wait until I have a boyfriend? I know it's when I want it, but I still want some help. How do I know if others are gay? (My GayDar doesn't work) I tried telling my friend and it didn't go so well. He's okay with me being gay, but now he's acting way to nonchalant. I need someone to comfort me. I can't just hold this in! Will others do that? Or are others more comforting? Did I just get the worst friend ever? Too many questions..

i can tell you now, its worth it :) wait until you are ready, iv been out for 3 years, but that was when i realy realised i was gay and it didnt bother me so i was ready.
knowing if others are gay? well, that is a little more difficult, e.g a boy in my school, who is one of the most straightest guys ever turned out BI yesterday. you have to look for signs, boys staring at you, being nice etc it wont always work, but it helps a little (my gaydar is pretty good lol)

your friend is probably in shock still or he just doesnt want to believe it. If you have siblings, tell them or another best friend (girls work great)

you dont have the worst friend ever, its hard to understand when you are told your best friend is gay :)

i came out to my twin brother, but he had sort of guessed lol he is really great about it and helps me when i, down :)

if you need any more help, just ask :)
