Coming out
-
Simple. Two thoughts:
-
he fought them off, so he must have started it.
-
he fought better, so he must be violent. so let's suspend the violent guy.
I love school administrators' blinding logic and intellect.

That's pretty much it in a nutshell… The kids that pick on other kids, especially bullying and trying to beat them up, can do so all they want, that's no problem according to the way the schools used to work until me... On the other hand, if the kid that they're trying to beat up fights back to defend themselves, they get suspended or otherwise penalized for acts of violence, when the ones who have been doing it for a loooooong time (who have been complained about multiple times) just get brushed off the administrator's shoulders like nothing is wrong.

someone should bend them over and… spank them! hehehe

Funny how I have started this topic hoping one day I would be able to come out to everyone and up to this point, I have only come out to a very secluded group of people which includes some gay people like me. One of them told me I was "one of the straightest gay" she has ever seen, i.e. I have done exceptionally well to cover my sexuality. Even though I have never gone out with a girl, no one has a slightest suspicion that I'm gay and question it. It has been like my second nature where I can sway any question on my sexuality to another topic smoothly and instantly. In exchange, I keep my secret safe and do not break any foolish girls' hearts. However, thanks to that, I have also excluded myself from also anything relating to the gay community where I live. That group of friends I mentioned is not even very close to me so I don't usually go out with them either.
How could I ever meet a gay guy and go out with him if I never visit a gay club? Or even talking about how handsome someone is to anybody else? Thanks to my cover, no one would ever think to introduce to any gay friend of theirs. At the moment, I'm excluded from the gay community and live in lies in the straight community. I'm stuck and very upset sometimes. I determine not to go out to any girls to pretend I'm straight since it's just too cruel for her, but it's very, very lonely at times. Sghhh…. -
you're here in GayTorrents, so I assume you have a profile on some other gay networking sites? If so, you can easily find a group of like-minded gays to hang out with from time to time.
You'd be surprised how welcoming a lot of us are. -
… I had my first feeling towards guys when I was 13 or 14 but didn't find it that disturbing at that time.
Thought it might be a phase I'm going through but wasn't to worried if it wouldn't.With 15 I left home and spent most of the time at the boarding school. At 16 I had my first gay sex expierience.
At 17 I joined a local gay rights group. The same year I planned to come out to my parents, but then my brother died
in an accident and I postponed it.Finally at 18 i came out to my parents. First to my mom who was actually relieved when I told her.
She thought I was in trouble cause I looked so stern. She told me she's not really happy because every parent wishes it's child the easieest an happiest life possible, to look after myself and have a happy life.
It took her another two years to be totally relaxed about my homosexuality.My father was next and this was far more easier then I expected.
He was absolutley relaxed about me being gay. He cherrished the new openness between us.
We sat down at the kitchen table and talked and drank all night.
One of the best nights of my life.I reallly love my parents for their education and their openness that made it so easy for me to find out who I am.

sounds like a good story. now if only our culture (philippines) didn't have so many stories about beating the gay out of someone (literally) i wouldn't be so paranoid about it.

hi guys!!!
i'm a new member of this community and i like it very much!!
i realized of being gay a little later than you, i was about 21 when i first noticed i was interested in boys. I had just ended a relationship with a girl that had lasted for three years, and when I started again to look around I realized that the boys made me a certain effect. i started dating with some guys, nut it was just sex, and I had not talked to any of my sexual tastes, until about a year ago, when I started an affair with one stuard (uniforms fascinate me a lot!) and I decided to talk about that with my best friends. for me it was hard to talk about but they reacted very well! in the months after I came out of the closet with other friends and now almost all of my friends know. all of them reacted very well and I am very happy to be able to talk to them openly without having to pretend.
the problem for me is to talk to my parents and my family. Now I'm 26 and I'm proud of who I am, I'm tired of having to lie and pretend and I am more and more determined to talk with them. the only thing that keeps me from doing it is the doubt of their reaction. they never made homophobic speeches or anything, in fact they have always shown respect towards homosexuals, but I fear that this behavior can be just a facade. probably I think these things just because I'm afraid of their reaction and in reality, things will be much easier than i think!
can you give me some advice on how to approach the subject with them? -
I think the hardest thing any Gay Man has to do is Come Out to his parents. Hard to imagine the results and judge reactions and none of us want to disappoint our parents.
I came out in 1973 in an age where no one would think of doing such a thing as openly admit to being Gay. My Mother really struggled with this fact of my life. There was trouble early on but within the year she and I were back to our selves and in fact better than before I came out. I was finally able to be the real Michael.
Have courage and faith that all will be well even if it takes some time. However, be prepared for other possibilities. :hug:

I spent until I was 18 afraid to come out, when I told my parent in tears. they laughed and told me it was about time I came out to them.. whew
wish others had it easy. ??? :cry2: :love: :blink: :cheers:
