Probably to all the straight guys that I fell in love with

You don't Stick to your friends. Just fuck all the rest.

It's so long since I came out - over thirty years - that it's hard to remember life before.  I live the same way I always did, but I'm not expending energy on checking what I say, in case I let something out about my sexuality. For me, life out of the closet is way better than life in it. That's not to say I haven't had my fair share of hard times because of people's reactions, but I learned quickly the best way to deal with them and for me, the positives far outweigh the negatives.

punch them ahahahh

You may want to post this in the "Coming Out" section https://community.gaytor.rent/index.php?board=67.0 under the "GBLT issues". You may get answers faster there and plus there are many others with similar questions you may want to check out.

Thanks for the advice dude! The step-by-step approach seems to be working and I'll continue by telling the sister's friend, who'll be able to guide me best. Thanks again. I can't wait to finally live a more open and less secretive life.

morrigan123 is correct.  bumcum is relaying Jesus' biggest ideal, "and the first of these is Love".  Also see the Beatitudes and think on the reverse and the converse of them.

What kind of bullshit is this? I grew up in Toronto and was bullied for being seemingly gay

As his Brother, can you gauge what his reaction will be based on what you know of him.  I was unlucky and lucky when It came to my Dad, Unlucky because he died young before I came out, but lucky as I know he would have thrown me out of the house and never spoken to me again, he was that sort of a guy when it came to being gay.  As it happened my Mother found it hard and I left home within 6 months and went 5 years without speaking to her, now we have the best relationship ever and my stepdad who is actually my dad's brother is fine and has no issues, so for me it turned out fine in the end. What about the rest of the family, Mum, grandparents, siblings, etc.  Could he come out to them first to get them on his side, and what exactly is the issue, fear of rejection, disappointment.  At the end of the day your Nephew has a life that only he can live and sometimes we have to make big sacrifices in order to live that life, even if that means we have to walk away from friends, family and loved ones to live that life and be true to ourselves.

Time heals a broken relationship, but it can never remove the scars! If that's how they felt, then there is nothing u can do about it! all u have to do is be yourself and achieve your goals in life and make them proud.

Bisexuals are HOT! just sayin'

Move on and never look back in the past, except for hot guys! then u should deffinitly look back! just kidding! I am happy for u

If you are not prepared to get hurt and get rejected. Then you are not yet ready for a relationship! coz mostly no relationship is easy and all of us goes into many struggle in life but some of us choose to face those struggles and learn from it. It's your choice. I;m gonna leave you with this saying from the TV cartoon "Billy and Mandy" "that is why it is called crushes, coz ur gonna get crushed in the end" by: Mandy GOOD LUCK DUDE :))

No? but if your already obvious…. then.... You might not know it but they might know already and their just waiting for u to tell them straight yourself.

gave me the laughs! but in my own opinion, there are many possible outcome to that situation but I'm just going to stick to my own perspective; everybody will just thought of it as a joke at first but after some time, the other party will think about it and get conscious of his own actions.  first is that he might take it seriously and leave u, second is that he might take it seriously and maybe he will fall eventually?? ahaha third is that he will take it seriously and will say to remain friends. BUT BEING FRIENDS AFTER A CONFESSION IS REALLY HARD! it's either accept it or forget we're even friends. thats my opinion… BUT I SALUTE YOUR BRAVERY not many people can do that ! GOOD LUCK ON UR LOVE LIFE MISTER

I came out when I was 12 years old. Being raised in a Latin country that's a BIG NO, NO there. Specially Puerto Rico. So I had to make that decision. Most may not agree, but it has been the best decision I have ever made.

dont know

Ohhh this is me too! my family and close friends know, but co-workers and some friends don't. I always hear remarks when they talk like "ohh I think he's gay", not about me someone else who I know actually is gay as one it's obvious and two I've seen some evidence, then they make a weird face or some other remark…while I'm there, it's awkward at times haha. Another time I was on holiday with a sort of friend and they said to me "Ewww look at those two gays". Of course I had already seen them as it was on a beach, these two guys with muscled tanned bodies wearing only white speedos were under the outdoor shower and kissing  at that time I just said "eewww....yeah..." (but was secretly wanting to join HAHA) Shame I didn't have the courage to say something like "do you have something against gay people?" at times i still don't have that courage hence why I'm still half in the closet like you OP Hopefully it will get easier for us  :hug:
