  • watching your videos give me the strength to become myself ... im 16 and have no gay friends and the friends i hang with sre judgemental which makes me afraid to express how i should truely want to act. and same with my parents they always assume that i have a girlfriend but they dont know that i like guys ... its hard and i hope your parents accept you for who you r and ur truely inspirational and brave . wish i had the courage like you

  • @nyXiNsane yeah theres no doubt in my mind tat some people are against bisexuality bc they think you can only be one or the other which makes me mad because who arethey to tell me who i can and can not like but thatnks for the comment :)

  • Hey Kevin =)

    Im 20 years old and Im bisexual as well. It is amazing once you realize you shouldn't be scared. And if people think there is something wrong with bisexuality, just remember that you're having twice as much fun. Like you said, both ways man.

    On the other hand, your sexual orientation shouldn't define this phase of your life. You are young and you will remember this shaping stage forever. I know there are people who would love to get to know you. It's always fun on this side =)

  • Good for you, I.m sure they will all support you.

  • How old are you. are you out to anyone.

  • @AjSlutboi 16 and to one person and im about to tell one of my good friends

  • @Kevin0248 Good for you Kevin. We support you, and don't be afraid to share with us the experience. You are doing a good thing here. I hope it goes well.

  • I use to say "I'm too young to have a girlfriend, I wanna enjoy life"

  • @glimonez He'll get it when he grows up and sees how religious people treat him afterwards. :-(

  • @glimonez but God does....He will love me for me no matter what bc i am made in his image and likeness...so if anyone wants to tell me that i cant be religious and be bisexual then fuck them bc obviously i can

  • Hey Kevin, don't b totally freaked out by an old guy commenting on ur video. I'm 49, and live in FT. Lauderdale. I so wish Youtube existed when I was 16, I probably wouldn't have stayed in the closet until 40. I wound up marrying a woman & having a child all because I was too afraid to come out.. When I was ur age my dad was a cop, so u can imagine what he thought about gay people. Probably the reason I didn't come out. I so commend u for doing ur videos. U r going to inspire so many kids.

  • @out4good2001 Damn....wait are you still married to her?! And that is my main goal is to inspire poeple but when/if i come out to my family that's when i wnt to really inspire people

  • @Kevin0248 ......No I'm not still married. I came out to her and my son in 2001. At the time we lived in amish country PA. Ugh!! Now I'm partnered to a wonderful man and we live in beautiful Ft. Lauderdale, FL. I'm living proof that "It gets better". My advice to u is, don't let anyone force you to come out. Come out to family and friends, when you feel in your heart that it's time. U'll know. U r a strong young man, and I'm very proud of u for what u r doing. Keep strong, Kevin.

  • @out4good2001 ok sorry it's pretty late and im being reall retarded right now but anyone that has come out to their family/friends/children are inspirations to me :)

  • ugh i feel the same but im 25! its scary!

  • You are the knight of whom I speak.

    Your story is clear, I’ve heard it true

    So please be not so very blue.

    but here I’m done and leave you now

    I’ve said my peace, I’ll take my bow

    But know this here, before I go

    You must fight on, though feel you low

    For you do champion those in need

    Who have not courage to succeed.

  • @Trefsre i like this it sounds like something i would write :-)

  • @Kevin0248 I'm glad you liked it.

  • Who hides himself ‘hind closet door? No, surely there must be some more. Though he would shroud himself in shade We see his light on hill displayed And while he pray on bended knees, All that we see? Our Hercules! With shining mail he plans to fight His sword raised high, It’s hilt held tight; For he now knows he’s in the right. He will toss and turn and tumble, Yet he shall cause such a rumble all those thoughts which lie and bumble Will surely be caused to stumble.
  • Kevin, nicely said. I hope you take substantial comfort in the many people who love and celebrate you for who you are. Many on YouTube, but even more in the physical world.

  • kevin,

    It does get better, and if your friends are truly your friends they will love and respect you no matter what. The same goes for your family. From experience it may or may not be difficult for them at first but they will come around. My mom and I didnt speak for about 2 months when I came out. . Eventually she came around and now she lives with me and i am taking care of her. Kevin be strong check out the trevor project they can help also.IT DOES GET BETTER. BE STRONG!

  • I love the way you talk, keep it up! you will make a difference on peoples minds and life!

  • thanks @depfox for showing me this..

  • 386 Views you are on your way to being a super star :O) cant waite for the next video....

  • @depfox hahahaha that's not what I'm here for but thanks :-)

  • awesome video. you say you don't feel very strong but you show so much strength just making your videos. i believe that wherever you are, you're just where you need to be. don't feel pressured to come out- it's completely up to you. keep on keepin on! :)

  • thanks for sharing. : )

  • I am so glad you made this! Keep your head held high, you will get through this rough patch, it will all get better trust me. I am still closeted to my school and most of my family, but coming out to my mom has given me less stress. GOOD LUCK with everything, it takes a lot of patients tho, I am in the same situation with my family as in they ask all of these questions and make gay references, but you are DISAPPOINTING NO ONE thanks for sharing your story, you know I am always here for you man!

  • @josewilldestroy dude jose i know all of that that you said in the first part lol but thanks :)

  • @Kevin0248 yeah but I wanted to just emphasis the relief of coming out haha I know that you know like my entire life story, and well you know my religious standpoint but I am glad that God is giving you the strength. but just remember you aren't forced by anyone to come out, it's all when you feel it is the right time. :)

  • Dude you have got allota strength to be that genuine infront of strangers and seriously there are so many of us have been through it and the process is different fro everyone. All you can do is stay true to who you are and your aspirations (man that sounds like something out a fortune cookie) but dude stick in there and everything you're doing here.... is progress

    Congrats!

  • @rosscols thanks i'm glad you liked it i wasn't going to do these videos at first but thanks to people like you i'm continuing to do them.....but it does sound like something from a fortune cookie lol but i like it :)

  • Thanks for sharing your story. There is no time limit on coming out. Come out when your ready. You've already told 1 person and that is 1 more than I had told at your age.When you do come out you don't have to come out to everyone either. Coming out is if for YOU and its to make YOU feel better. Hang in there, in a couple of years you'll go off to college or work and your life is going to be great .

  • Your journey is one millions have walked, you are not alone, you deserve life, liberty and the pursuit of happinness as do us all. It gets better. Stay strong.

  • Kevin, I am sure you hear this alot, based on comments, but you are one of the most interesting, inspirational, and kindest souls to put out vids on YouTube. With depfox, myself, and so many others that have taken a liking to you and your vids, please, know one thing...you obviously have so much support behind you, man. Talk anytime.

  • Thank you so much for sharing your story :)

    I know what you are going through there and it takes lots of courage to tell it to your closest friends and family. I know you will take the big leap eventually and so far just hang in there!!

    It is so relieving when you have there someone with whom you can be yourself. For example I told first to my sister and then to my closest friend. They both are super supportive and I can finally talk about everything with them ^^

    You are not alone there!!

  • So I pretty much adore you; so inspirational. Keep it up :)

  • Hey Kevin, just wanted to thank you for being so honest and sharing your story. I can't wait to keep in touch and watch you grow here on YouTube. It will be nice to hear the progress you make.

  • i just knew when i was reatty to come out when i was fucking tyred of lieing

    ............you can call me if you want i am out and i have help other people like you give let me know

  • i just knew when i was reatty to come out when i was fucking tyred of lieing

  • Great video Kevin! I know its really tough being a gay teenager but hang in there. I'm glad you had the couarge to tell a friend and its even better that she supports you. Having one person that knows will deffinetly make coming out to your parents easier. But yeah, like others have said I would wait until you are ready and don't feel like you have a deadline. Also if you ever need to talk to someone you're welcome to pm me.

  • You know little man, what you are feeling has been felt by so many for so long. There will come a day when there is no need to come out to anyone, it will be accepted just as normal. I went through what you are feeling right now as well. The way I handled it was I kept saying to myself, just graduate and I will be OUTTA HERE!!! LOL! I balled up my toes and grit my teeth and as soon as I graduated I bolted. And it is a lot better out of school... I promise! Love to ya!!

  • You don't need to worry about disappointing others. Just be yourself. You don't have to come out if you don't feel you are not ready. Concentrate on your school work, and be a well-rounded person. Your poetry is really good, so keep going with that. Learn more about video editing, and whatever other interests, like sports or whatever. You are more than just being gay. It is only a big thing now but you are really bigger than your orientation.

  • Dude i know that this is redundant but it will get better!!! You gotta hang in there. life will not always be this tough and you are getting strength to make it big in this world.

    hang in there!!!!!!!

  • oh man kevin best wishes..yes it is a difficult period. hang in there.

  • dude my mom always makes gay references and they were pretty derogatory...coming out is not for everyone. You gotta gage your situation...Definitely wait

  • I'm a man, I like guys... you are nice kevin, I would date you but I live in Rome..

  • evening

    great video

  • Really open and honest video Kevin. I'm glad you have your sources of strength. You are correct that god doesn't judge you for being gay. He made you that way. I bet there are a lot of people on here, gay and straight that would want to talk and get to know you. I would just say come out to people when you feel comfortable and safe. There is no rush do whats best for you. Good video

  • @DaCrazyOne well im half way through my junior year...and idk when im going to tell my parents just when i feel it's the right time idk when that'll be

  • Well done Kevin , you are a very strong man, I was afraid to admit the truth to myself at your age and played out a straight life until I married my best friend at 24, almost lost her 3 month's later when I came out, not by my choice but it did happen.. She is still my best friend as of today over 16 years later , Thank God !

    My worst fear's were for nothing cause when I did come out everybody accepted me. I was lucky ! Good Luck !

  • Yours is the story of thousands of people who feel the exact same as you do right now. You are going to be fine, just stay strong . Cyber hugs!!

  • This is the only reason i love youtube its somewhere for where young people go to. I didnt have youtube when I was young, I have no idea what got me through it, the bullying the snide comments. BUt I am so glad you found God and everything you needed to gain strength. Im 21 and I still lack the strength to tell my family but i have moved up a level now, I have the strength to be true to who God has destined me to be and I dont lie anymore. So basically ALL of my friends know, family..not so much

  • You are such a cutie

  • Hi Kevin. I was blown away by this video. I could hear myself in your words when I was your age. I first have to tell you that because you're still in the closet doesn't mean youre not strong. It actually shows strength that you make it through each day with this struggle inside of u. You'll know when it's time to tell people you're gay. You'll know in your heart so don't rush it. You're a brave guy and I promise u that life will only get beter and better for u if u follow your heart. Good luck.

  • It is hard being in the closet with anybody. Two of my sisters still don't know and I feel awkward especially when they ask me when I am going to find a girl to date/marry. It is very weird not telling them I'm gay but it's just not the right time yet.

  • oohhh buddy, I feel your pain. I was there (still kinda I'm lol) but pretty much what you hear is true. it takes time for things to fall into place. i do have a bit of advice for you. Be careful with those hatred comments about gay people that come from your family (since you mentioned your mom). My mom would do the same and i would lash out on her defending gay people even though she doesn't know I'm gay. it can produce a very hostel situation, so when you see that happening, just walk AWAY

  • It is never easy, but often there is a great deal of relief when you do tell. Please don't assume i am telling you to tell someone, i think it best to chose your own time when you feel it is right. Thanks for sharing. Becarefull too as you might have friend allready watching. Anyways hang in there. Oh and there are Gay Catholics.

  • I very know what it was like when I was younger than you and your age pretending to be into girls more than friends. It is weird and tends to dissociate you. I resent that we should feel like this. Though when i was young SHIT there wasn't even a term for GAY. no internet. it was taboo. so that was fukin weird. it is great you have this contact here. Be strong. you are out to us :)))) feels great huh? lol

  • You've got strength! 'Cause you're making something with your concerns and you are not just denying them. That will, in the end, make you a stronger person.

    Take care

  • How long until you finish school ? families are just nosy straight or gay they always want to know personal things. do you think that once you finish school and move out it would be better to tell your parents ? that way you can get away from the comments if they dont approve

  • Great video....I agree with a lot of what people said in the comments below...There is no rush to come out to every one....Take your time and slowly tell those that you 100% trust. Once you do you will find that life is a billion times easier...But there is no rush.

    I bet your mom has a 100% no idea who or what gay people are....You arnt close to your mom because of the wall between you guys. I hope some day she will love you for who you are.

  • You being a young Black gay male puts you in a odd postion to began with.Homophobia and Racism is what screwing up this world among other things.

  • @COOLLIKEDATAZAIN i've told one person and she is really my bestfreind and she accepts me for me and she says she doesnt care if i like guys...but she's the only person i told and i can be so open with her

  • you are a beautiful person inside and outside. take your time coming out - only you can decide when the time is right, but when you do it will feel so liberating. if any of your friends have a problem with your sexuality then you don't need those people in your life and they were never true friends to begin with because it shouldn't determine a friendship. keep positive, life will get better as you get older.

  • take ur time coming out but after u tell just one friend it gets way better i told my ex gf who is now one of my best friends since she understands me now so trust me coming out even to one person feels great and it will help u come out to more people over time

  • Once you tell one person and they except you then more strength will come your way. I can promise you that. You are special and know you have friends here that will help guide you. Take care!

  • I can't wait to see your progress with yourself. My advise to you is take your time coming out. It will come in time and you will find the way to tell everyone you want to tell. Sometimes it is easier to tell your close friends first because you will have someone to support you if your friends take it ok. If you need anything let us know. We will definitely be there to give you the best advise possible. Trust me I am out and I feel free to be me, but all you need to do is take your time...

  • Very honest video, you are very brave and thanks for sharing. You don't have less strenght, your situation is different. Believe in yourself Kev, the day will come and it will get better xx
