  • It does get better. But mysterymakeable is right, too. It should be better right now. Even thought some people might not take kindly to your being gay, it should feel like a huge wieght has been lifted off of your shoulders.

  • yeah well i think not alot have noticed but it shouldn't have to get better, it should be better already

  • A few days ago, I had Confessions. I go to a very prestigious bullshit Catholic school. I came out last year and I have been embraced and ignored. But that's cool. And I sat with the priest. I asked, "Is being Gay a sin.. will God hate me?" the Priest stopped me. He said, "No! God loves you. He has such magnificent plans for you and for all gay people. No where in the bible does it say being gay is a sin. Embrace who you are." I started crying with relief. From then on I started embracing myself

  • Like all these people say. I wish it was just a natural thing. I never really thought anything, then realized when I was maybe a freshman...oh, so I'm gay. That's what it is. It should just be something no one cares about.

    And now I'm staying with my best friend because I didn't even want to listen to my parents.

  • "We would learn about all the different ways that I was going to go to Hell, because I'm gay.."

    LOOOOL!! To think of it, even if one is not gay, they still find ways to put you in Hell.

  • Even worse, my little sister is mean to me because i am engaged to another girl. I've taken so much of this abuse from my sister, and i finally snapped a few weeks ago. I punched her in the face and nearly broke her nose, and instantly felt horrible. I ran upstairs, panicking and sobbing. She still, to this day, is mean to me about my choice of partner. I really hope it gets better, because the only person keeping me from slitting my throat is my fiance. It has not started to get better yet.

  • @CaelXEngel, I wish you wouldn't think of suicide I don't personally know you but it makes me sad to hear annother human would take their own life instead of saying fuck it I grew up with a homophobic brother and everything is gay this gay that he has even called me a faggot because he knew I was gay and he knew how much it hurt me there where times where I couldn't stop balling because of him. so do me a favor love yourself for who your are cuz thats all you ever will be <3

  • <se i can't deal with long distance relationships. (She had moved to live with her father.) Almost a year ago, i was looking up some stuff online and found something about Gender Identity Disorder. I read through it, and realized what my wanting to be a male my whole life was. I came out to her as transgender, and she, again, thinks it's a phase. She get angry any time i talk about it, and always makes fun of my trying to look like a male (binding my breasts, wearing men's clothing, etc.).

  • I'm sixteen, and i came out to my mother as bisexual at the beginning of seventh grade. She passed it off as a phase, and i stopped talking about it. I told her again, when i got my first girlfriend at the end of seventh grade, and she still told me i was going through a phase. I lost my girlfriend because it got so bad with our families that she and i planned to run away. My mom found out and called her mother. I've only seen her once since this happened, a week after i broke up with her becau>

  • DaveyWavey for president such touching advice :)

    

  • I DONT HATE GAY PEOPLE I JUST HATE WHAT YOU DOO!

  • "It would suck not being gay."--that sums it up nicely. Thanks for contributing!

  • @All you haters. You better believe there F.A.G;Which,stands for:

    Fucking

    Awesome

    Gays

    So every time time you call them that,you're giving them a compliment. ;) So thank you... You Gay lovers you...

  • I wish 'coming out' weren't even a thing.. I think being gay is just natural, bring someone home of the same sex and it's normal as anything, no big deal. Maybe one day (:

  • I love and miss Toronto!!!

  • Faggot

    What? Not gonna "accept" me?

  • YOUR WEARING A SHIRT!

  • I'm not gay.... BUT IT DOESN"T MEAN THAT PEOPLE LIKE ME CAN'T SUPPORT YOU GUYS! I HAVE GAY FRIENDS AND THEY ARE SOME OF THE MOST CREATIVE PEOPLE I KNOW. YOU GUYS ARE DOIN A GOOD THING.

  • Thank you so much for posting this video. I don't know you but I love you both because for the first time ever, i feel like I'm not alone.

  • @DesmondYH There are so many people on the planet that understand you. More than you know, the It Gets Better project has only been so successful because it is completely true. Be confident and put yourself out there. Keep in mind that it is not just going to get better for you, but as time goes on it will get better for everyone. Keep your chin up and fight through the hardships now. Everything difficult that you will go through at this point in your life will come back around in SO MANY WAYS!

  • Davey, Thanks for continuing to create life-affirming messages. I have recommended the vids. to many people & the most common response is a "thrill to realize that there are happy gay men and women on this planet." Many of the people who write to me were subject to a "bible thumping" educations & the horrors that are waiting for anyone who is GLBT.

    I think you have probably affected more people in a positive way than you will ever realize. In short; you do make a difference. Thanks

  • I came out to my friends when I was 13 and i was builed and all that crap but it does get better just wait

  • i live in a small redneck town in ohio i hate it i came out on my 15th birthday im 16 now im severely happy i came out GAY PRIDE!!!

  • I just want to die, ive been out being bi for 1 month and it was the worst descicion of my life i want to kill myself

  • @stevenpaine2010 Watch more of the It Gets Better videos! Some straight people are cheering you on rather loudly. ♥

  • why would anybody dislike this?

  • all that name calling and being picked up made me strong

    scars are always thicker than the skin

    i am proud of being gay because had I been a straight man i would have been a nobody

  • (random note: I have those same speakers I think. Logitech Z2300... I like them) :-)

  • It took this project to make Davey put on clothes... ^^

  • I am 16, I came out to my mom and dad the day after my 15th birth day.. They both flipped out and they kicked me out.. :(

    We had just moved to a new city and I didn't know anybody, I wasn't even in school yet.. I ended living in a park.. I had to beg for food and money,it was so bad.. I finely got all of what I had witch was just close and hitched hiked from Los vagas to kanas to my home town.. It took me about a month and a half to get there... But I'm here now and living with a friend and I'

  • @097TheBoy097 really ... how brave you are !

  • @097TheBoy097 oh, just don't give up, it will be ok, maybe not now, but soon, just give it a time.

  • @097TheBoy097 O.O wow you should really get a movie made of that :) it would be awesome

  • @097TheBoy097 They're cruel for doing that, hope you can find happiness in your life. NO HATE PEOPLE< EQUALITY!!!! I cannot say I know how it feels because I know my parents will understand ( I hope) when I tell them, but I don't feel ready. You should have waited until you were independent, that's what I'll do. Good luck dude ;**

  • @097TheBoy097 shit,such stories always riping my heart in peaces. Hope, that rest of your life will be as filed with love and happynes as every of us deserve it.

  • @097TheBoy097

    wow thats sucks and must of been hard, its good that your okay now thou :)

  • @097TheBoy097

    TROLOLOLOLOL

  • @097TheBoy097 your parents are bitches.

  • @097TheBoy097 Thats horrible I wish It never had to be so bad for us coming out

  • @097TheBoy097 You should had gone to the police, i'm pretty sure it's a crime to abandon a kid or a teenager, i think you still can go to the police and make your parents pay you some money.

  • I was BULLIED BEFORE, AND I BULLIED BACK :)

  • Love the background music, so soothing.

  • I am 43 and still single.

  • ok honestly when you talked about how u felt when u were in the closet and death crossed your mind and you felt alone thats how i feel right now even tho im proud to be gay its had im actually crying

  • well it has not got batter for i have been hate for a long time so how did u get thou it

  • HOLD THE PHONE! Davey has a SHIRT (well sort of) on?!

  • i feeling the same way and i feel trapped like im in a shipping container left and forgotten about it feel bad and i want to escape but the only way is to go the route to be straight and thats not be i just got to find a way out the lets me be who i am

  • Im 16 and Im just coming out & the hardest part is trying to come out to ur parents when ur dad is homophobic. I am who I am & im proud to b gay. btw as of this comment my parents do not know yet

  • @GeoNerd94

    Wishing you the best of luck. Believe me: it WILL be all right and you WILL find love.

  • i am fourteen and came out to people in the last week. i'm not sure how my mum is taking it, but she seems ok and my brother doesn't know. sadly i didn't get a chance to tell my friends at my own pace because my blaaber mouth friend told every 1 after i told her. i too am waiting for things to get better

  • @laughalot223 oh it does! I promise you. I remember thinking life is so hard it never will be normal or fun. And guess what?! I have a video telling you it will get better. Hang in there. The fun stuff is just around the corner.

  • @laughalot223 you are very brave, I came out in college, which is alot easier than being around less mature teenagers etc.

    It will get better, everything changes when you graduate and go to college.

  • im 15 &nd im bi-sexual. i came out to my mom on christmas eve . she didnt really respond , buht my older sister said i was stupid , that people are either gay or straight. buht i know what i am , im waiting for things to get better <3

  • I'm 15 and proud of being gay already, I have had a bad schoolife because of my sexuality but because I knew that there were others in my situation I drew strength from it and I became more resilient

  • haha im gay, and i do think that i wouldnt want to be straight. i LOVE being gay, but its not the gay, its about the happiness due to being myself

  • @TheVentusVanitas omg I just realized that I replied to you and you have two comments on here, I just wanted to tell you that I my first reply to you was to the comment that you are much happier after coming out. :)

  • I have shared this with a friend of mine and find it appropriate to share it here as well with love and light.

    Through my years in this life, I have learned the following through experience:

    1. We all are ONE and we r all GOD. Religion is man made and keeps people in fear and it's very deceiving and many will realize who they are soon.

    2. We choose the life/styles we experience lifetime to lifetime before coming into the physical body. So our sexuality isn't wrong and has it's purpose.

  • It does get better! Much better in fact! Once you start loving yourself, others will too!

  • Can you please make a video about how to get over your first Loves? I think I would greatley and so many other guy will greatley appreciate it. Please and let me know

  • Good message! A much needed sentiment in America right now!

  • DAVEY WAVEY WITH A SHIRT! WTF! HAHAHA XD jk jk

    seriously though i blushed when u looked straight into the camera @ 1:58 hahahah!

  • Davey, thank you so much for your powerful, positive and inspirational clips here on Youtube. I don't understand how some guys leave negative comments about you on here. You're doing such an incredibly great thing here for gay men everywhere. Whenever I need a "pick me up", I turn to one of your clips on here, and everything seems to change for the better. Many thanks and God bless.

  • someone in your family could be gay, this could be your: brother, sister mother, father, aunt, uncle, grandfather, grandmother, great uncle, great aunt, cousin, niece, nephew. Not all gays are girly, some look and act so straight they make some straight people look gay. You never know but your best friend may be gay or has someone in their family who is, your boss might be gay, your neighbor, the man who collects your rubbish,the person serving you at the shop or even your teacher. anyone can be

  • @halflifeproductionz

    only god decides that. since you are judging, i presume you are going to hell.

  • @halflifeproductionz stop talking that way or someone will spank you

  • @halflifeproductionz oh, you silly person! why are you watching these vids if you hate gays.......

  • @halflifeproductionz no it's the religious bigots and the intolerant that goes to hell - just saying

  • @e17simon but the westboro baptist church says gays go to hell. i'm confused.

  • @halflifeproductionz the westboro baptist church also says that having sex in general is a sin but yet they all seem to end up having more than 5 kids. At the end of the day they're only doing this because the bible said it

  • @keyki421 lol you commented on this one too!!

  • maybe that is the straight you got for christmas- to be straight with yourself :3 ^.^

  • i love this video. i started two cry

  • love is evil

  • 1:54 that is EXACTLY how i feel. Maybe it'll change later?

  • @keyki421 it dosen"t AND WE ARE ALL GO TO HEAVEN

  • @keyki421 so....let me get this straight....your amazing religion teaches you to pray for bad things to happen to people...well thats lovely....which religion do you belong to then that teaches you to pray for such things...

  • @Royalbrettania  ur a faggot supporter

  • @keyki421 We LGBT will pray for you and hope you get better. Much love, a closeted gay teen.

  • @mak3myda3 i dont want faggots prayin for me, Gods doesnt even like yall so i know he aint listening to your prayers. Prayin for me is the worst thing yall could ever do to me.

  • @keyki421 you completely missed my point didnt you....makes me think that you are exceptionally stupid......not only am i a faggot supporter ..i am also a faggot.....and I hate stupid straight people hate the way you guys dress hate the way you guys smell....straights are revolting.....and you with all your hateful ways are going to hell ...because above ALL the bible preaches is love...Treat another person they you would be treated....the devil wants hate...so ergo you belong to the devil...

  • @Royalbrettania so im going to hell because i hate gays? so i guess everyone is suppose to like yall then. even if being around yall makes me uncomfortable

  • @keyki421 you dont HAVE to LIKE anyone...it is wrong to HATE ..you are SUPPOSED to let people get on with their lives...so long as they are not hurting anyone all ANYONE wants is to be LOVED and be ALLOWED to LOVE whomsoever they choose ....why waste your time on hate ? why dont you get on with your own life and find some love ...sharesome love with who ever you want ? how is that for an idea ....or am I going over your head ?

  • @Royalbrettania everyone should be able to love the opposite sex, men with women and women with men, not men with men or women with women that shit is gross and should be illegal to do all together, in africa, your are thrown in jail if you are gay, thats what american needs to do, throw some of yall faggots in jail

  • @keyki421 you think its gross then dont do it......and you are incorrect not all of africa is like that.... in south africa it has been completely legal since 1994 ...it is illegal in south africa to discriminate on grounds of sexual orientation.....and you obviously have not got a clue what the rest of africa is like ...do you

  • @keyki421

    Then move to Africa if that's how you feel!!

  • @keyki421 I hope you realize that the actual meaning of your "insult" "faggot" is a bundle of sticks.

  • @keyki421 If I were an LGBT person, would much rather live my life with the people who respect me than spend it believing this so called "God" you believe in. I was raised a Lutheran, and my god would never encourage that kind of talk about people. You are just one of those people who hide behind the real Christians and spread hate about people. 

  • hey there everyone this vid reminds me of how I used to feel and its true it dose get better I'm gay but havent told hardly anyone but those numbers are growing everytime I talk to someone and say I'm gay it makes me feel better because I'm being true to myself and being who I truely am and I ask everyone that sees this to please do not forget it gets better I lost 2 of my best friends and my boy friend because they could not beleave it gets better and thank you daveywavey for helping me

  • The view from your place! Wow!

  • Davey Wavey, Truthfully i have to say that i have had times when i was in high school that i have actually thought i was better off dead. I still feel that way but watching this video really is helping me and i would like to thank you and Dan for putting this video up you have helped me so much. THANKS DAVEY WAVEY!!!!!!

  • Okay....why do gay guys sound and act like chicks...do any gay men act like men lol...JW

  • @Tabibykat89 Hey I know alot of gay guys that are very masculin (misspelled IDK IDC)

  • Thanks guys...!

  • You guys are too cute. Thanks for reaching out to our LGBT kids.

  • Haha, Davey, you've been phasing shirts into several of your recent videos. :)  I see what you're doing! You're getting us used to it so that 40 years from now when you don't look *quite* as hot without your shirt on we won't notice the transition. . .

  • Davey, thanks for caring and making a difference to a lot a people. It's a big world out there, but not for some. It can be a small cold place. You give us light, warmth, and hope.

  • @montsyblackmadonna except everyone is not christian, thats your problem

  • @montsyblackmadonna just a question doesn't god state that every creature on earth is god's child THEN Y DO U FEEL THAT WAY HUHHH GAY PEOPLE R STILL GODS CHILDREN AND IM NOT EVEN CHRISTION PEOPLE LIKE U R HORRIBLE AND RUDE AND UNKIND AND NOT TRUE TO CHRISTIANITY PS: SOCIETY CHANGES U FAKE CHRISTIAN AND Y DO U WATCH THESE VIDS HUHH IDIOT

  • @montsyblackmadonna It's sad that people like you make a bad name for Christians. I'm a Christian. I don't support the gay community, but I don't condemn them. They are people too and deserve the same respect, anyone else deserves. What is a "real American" anyway?

  • @newfish09 We have been successful at our endevour to Reclaim the house of representives for Jesus Christ !

  • @montsyblackmadonna dude.... everyone knows youre a troll

  • @montsyblackmadonna and you need to read your history alittle bit more

  • @newfish09 What you need to do is Hush Up and Obey the Lord Thy God !

  • @newfish09 Those who are not christians,are not real americans,and should have their citizenship taken away from them.

  • @montsyblackmadonna people who areant real americans are against america, not want....... never mind

  • @montsyblackmadonna lol Really? I would go if it wasn't so ridiculous. I'm not a Christian, but Christ loves everyone, and don't forget that when God makes people he doesn't make mistakes. Because God doesn't make mistakes.

  • @CoffeeNinja89. Do forgive me, but have you ever considered the notion that you may not be wholly sane.

  • @shangrigreige I have considered it before, but then realized that I'm not. I just have very different opinions on everything compared to most people. :)

  • I think its a bizar concept to be proud of ur sexual oriention but I defnetly think you should be happy with who u are an love your self. I dont think its right to bost or brag what u are like rub it in there face thats wrong. but be you an be happy. Im proud of who I am but I am more then my sexuality. Im still who I am around everyone I just dont tell them my sexuality, people dont need to know who u are sexualy attracted to unless there sexual attracted to you or vise versa. be proud of u

  • Dan is cute and sweet... does he have a YT channel?

  • I agree. It does get better. I'm 17 and it's already better.

  • @CoffeeNinja89 i'm 17 too and it sucks!

  • @MrHottyHotHot That's very unfortunate that you feel that way. However my personal experience is that it does in fact get better and I really hope that it does for you too.

  • @CoffeeNinja89 so am i. came out recently. much happier =]

  • @TheVentusVanitas That's awesome! That's so wonderful to hear!! :D :D :D

  • Comment removed

  • Thank you for making this. y'all are great

  • OMFG!!! davey you look even better with a tight T shirt on!!!!!!!!!

  • people need to take note that, You and your person and your intention is also a very valuable part of not only being a good human,, but ALSO part of being a gay person as well..This aspect of our nature is too often grossly overlooked and exists greatly amongst the masses not only in gay individuals but people on the whole.. Here we can find equality if we choose to see the beauty in all people, We need to expose this side of our human nature as equally as any other.

    Best of Luck .

  • Hey Davey, just hooked into your channels today.. You seem to be a great guy, I like that you use this platform not only as entertainment. You seem to have a generally good soul and to be a very caring person. I think you "It Gets Better" idea is such a noteworthy and respectful vehicle where a person can use their own life experience to support and benefit others who might be in a state of needing understanding support and kindness..kudos to you ..a very genuine guy.

    thanks for your efforts

  • omg you have a shirt on

  • Davey you are describing my life, i am in high school still and i seriously don't know what to do :( but hearing your words of wisdom have been inspiring!

  • thanks for doing this video. I hope ours has the same impact. thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you for doing this :)

  • who are you dating davey ?

  • dan is dorky-cute. i could wake up to that boy every morning. davey, i'm not sure i could handle you. nah, i'm jus playin' cute vid, men. you guys are adorable.

  • it does get better. it gets SO much better. thanks davey and dan, for this vid.

  • Great video !! 

  • Dan is super cute!!! Give him my number! I can even overlook his being Canadian. >.<

  • Thank you Davey for posting this. It means a lot to me!

  • I absolutely love being a 'mo, and i'm only 19 :)

  • if thats ur apartment Davey, I WANT IT!!

  • This is exactly how I feel!! You guys are so sweet, I love this whole "It Gets Better" campaign. It's so encouraging to see so much support for our community!

    xX

  • What a world we live in that we can allow our children to feel so bad about themselves they would take their own life...God and religion is at the very core of this. They have so much to answer for....they have caused so much misery and death. As a race of people we need to put this childish fantasy behind us and move into a world of love and understanding were we're free to be who we want to be, as long as no one gets harmed.

  • wow that is sad, lucky i am...

  • It totally does!!! But I was lucky and I was fine by high school.

  • It does. Faith and Love in one's self does wonders. You only live your life. And you can only be the person you are meant to be.

  • Was that his boyfrienddd?

  • didn't you already do one?

  • SHOZ BOT!!!!!

  • AHA! i figured out how to fix my phone's audio issue so im gonna trry to upload a video 4 u guys explaining :-)

  • @jukaufman Goooood job!<3 Be proud that you could do this

  • wow guys. first of all i truly appreciate your support! i really do. i feel the love and i dont even know you guys :-) i really wish i had a camera so i could make a video telling you guys how the whole thing went but i dont :-( lol but it went well. we went to the park and talked about it for almost 2 hours but by the end of it she said "it's your life and im sure you understand how your body functions more than i do just kno that your my son and im always goin 2 luv u". she took it really well

  • Great video Davey and Dan! I'm a lil older than you (35) and grew up thinking the same thing, that I'd have to live a lie or be all alone. Being gay just wasn't a possibility I ever dreamed of. I grew up in Catholic schools too and even became a monk. After college though (and after I left the monastery) I learned how ridiculous it is to let others dictate who or what I should be. I'm now partnered for 9 years and we bought a house last year here on Long Island. Life is good. It gets better! =)

  • WOW!!! You are wearing a shirt!!! Lol!!

  • Hey Davey. Your friend is really cute and he has such a great smile. Thanks for the good work you do.Mwah

  • it indeed does get better speaking of a geek that has been bullied out of about 10 schools now im about to start up my own business and guess what the bullies now work for me muhaha it does indeed get better :)

  • IT GETS BETTER!! -3

  • it take time for everything...........you cant hide in the closet forever....people that are close to you will accept you on who you are... they know that your different theyre just scared to open it up to you sometimes...just keep it real....^___^ im shemale and accepted by my parents, siblings and relatives and friends...but not all are open..there are still people that doesnt understand....

  • it take time for everything...........you cant hide in the closet forever....people that are close to you will accept you on who you are... they know that your different theyre just scared to open it up to you sometimes...just keep it real....^___^ im shemale and accepted by my parents, siblings and relatives

  • I love how you say "talky blog" it's so cute. And your friend is so adorable! :)

  • I felt my parents would be disappointed if they knew I was gay, and people were a lot meaner to gay people when I was in HS and College some 30+ years ago. There were times I wished it would just end. The funny thing is, I think everyone else knew I was gay before I even did. Anyways, I'm glad I'm still here. There are a lot of ups and downs in life. Like when you trip and fall in a crowd, there is nothing to do but pick yourself up and keep moving on & tell yourself -- & this to shall pass

  • ...youre wearing a shirt. :o

  • I wish I had a person like you to look up to when I was in high school. I too thought I was alone and told myself liking other guys was just a phase. You are an inspiration to many young men.

  • Wow you wore a shirt! And this video was great Davey :)

  • OMG CAN I COME VISIT YOU!
