I came out to my mom in november 2011 but no one else knows... which is bothering me, because i think i will have no one to talk to after evryone in school finds out :(
i feel like my life is a movie scene and i have to act...
i went to the dream home tour a few years ago in an undisclosed city and a friend of mine of 20 years went with me. We marveled at the house and i went to the master bedroom and got into the closet and closed the door. When I emerged victoriously, she said haven't you spent enough time in there covered her mouth and was horrified at what she said. I thought it was hilarious....ironically a relative of mine won the home lol
Gays need to understand. Many do not hate you for being gay, but for acting gay. I get SOOO Fucking pissed and fags. (A gay person is different than a fag in my book) A fag talks different and is different than a normal human. You sir are gay, and im fine with that. I don't swing that way but don't care if you do.
@LIKEaBOSS717 you are 100% right and I have been saying this to the gay world for years. I came out in 1967 and I have never had a negative reaction from any human being. The sad thing is that 90% of the queens start off as nice ordinary boys, then they hit the gay scene and - boom - another queen is born. It makes no sense, it alienates straight men, and it's sad, basically. :( oh well :)
You said you once turned to the internet in order to cope with the feelings and confusion you were having as you discovered yourself. I hope that its rewarding to think that you and your videos are helping people like me cope with the same issues years after you first went through them.
Knowing that there are people out there just like you, is the most uplifting thing for gay youth
@MrBarney524 So did god's giant hand come out of the clouds and down to earth one day and write the bible? No? Well, it was mortal men who wrote the bible. Not god himself. Just consider that man has a huge capacity to LIE. Especially if it means he can control the rest of humanity and get them to live they way they want them to. However, the bible is a nice little fairy tale.
@MrBarney524 Hey I have plenty of birthdays left. The quote you made about abomination is from Leviticus. Christians use this to justify persecuting gay people. So I pointed out that in the same book of the bible God commands you to stone your children to death for disobedience. So what are you saying: that you agree with God on some things but not on others? Explain yourself clearly, or stop using the bible to justify your persecution of gay people. OK. Nothing childish about that, imho.
@johndv777 Your right it was a stupid quote about stoning children;momma's used to be boy.I am not really commenting,in remembrance of your dad getting the heck out..
@johndv777 I remember what I used to do what ever you are called today,in high school.We didn't tolerate your kind,and your old enough to remember that.Did you tell your mom on valentines,because as you remember dads didn't put up with that weak stuff.Sisters always accept gay's you know.
Also I know these comments are hella annoying but I'm still in the closet and I just made my first YouTube video. Please check it out, it'll mean the world to me.
Its so awesome to see the strength of the gay community on youtube! I posted a video on gay sex being 'gross' on my channel. I'd love to know what you guys think of it.
I came out to my mom, brother, and about 15 friends but the majority of my school doesn't know and I still feel awkward talking about it with my friends/family. Does it eventually get easier/less awkward?
in my case i have never really been in love with guys. and i have been in love twice and both was girls i hasnt come out to more people yet. it did stop at my best friend she and dad mom and my brother knows but since then i havent come out. i never date and guys fall for me but.. guess i never fall for them nada but i feel like i must be more comfortable in my skin to tell the rest of my family and friends
@KindaGayBlog You know what? I am really happy that you saw my comment and replied. I'm closeted and watching your videos make me feel somebody understands me. thank you.
I appreciated your smile when you said your mom asked you if you were "sure". This is one of the most thoughtful & sincere "out" videos I've seen. I came out in 6th grade. Since I've been shunned by my mother as a "product of the devil" & younger brother - he's into the redneck "butch" thing, I still have to say I've NEVER been happier as a 28 yo OUT gay man.
My biggest problem has been with the "religious". Luckily, I'm a lifelong atheist.
By the way, you are VERY hot! Those baby blues! WOOF!
@Ifukguyz I'm sorry you've had to put up with discrimination from your own family, but I'm so happy you've accepted yourself. We have to cut negative people out our lives, even if it's our own flesh and blood.
When I told my mom she told that she wasn't surprised that I was gay bit most of a shock she told me that her friend has a gay son. So she wanted me to have his number she was supportive even she thought I was joking with her when I first told her
@BelungtungXD Just hang in there. I dont know how my mom will handle me being gay, nor do I know how my sisters will react, but I know if my mom's boyfriend or my uncles find out I know that they wont accept me
@BelungtungXD Not necessary to tell everyone. I told my mother and she was fine but later she became a B.A. Christian and then she was not fine with it for the rest of her life. So it would have been better for both of us if I had kept her guessing. Start with someone with a liberal mind whom you can trust. Good luck. :)
I'm from the closet generation of long ago. Both my parents are deceased. I never told them. My stepfather found out when I was 15 and he smashed me in the face. I'm glad he did not have a gun in his hand. My mother was extremely gay phobic. She hated lesbians with a passion. Even my sister is embarrassed about gays. You younger guys have it much easier than us guys from the past when being gay was a felony. At least I survived. Today, if someone does not like me, I say FU.
It wasn't as hard to come out to my school, because everyone just knew that I was gay. It was much harder to come out to my parents. My mom and dad are still trying to get used to it, but my older brother is in denial about it. I'm 17 now, and I was brought up in a fundamentalist Christian home. I'm also black, and being gay isn't really seen in a positive light in the black community. I'm just glad I have so many friends that have by back. I'm not sure what I would do without them.
So excited, I came out to one of my sisters last night. Had a heart to heart, shes supportive and will help me come out to my siblings. I love her. PS only my close friends recently found out about me. So far positive feedback. No drama just yet, and not expecting it.
Hey...thanks for posting this, its really cool that people like you share such personal stories somewhere we can all appreciate and learn from it. Thanks! :)
hi i have 2 gay brotheres and agay sister and a gay aunty and 2 straight brotheres as well i am bi but at the end of the day just be happy in life gay straight we all get one go at life live it
I't's about time I jump out and support your great video work publically! And the opportunity arose this morning, when this great video of yours appeared on my "Suggested" playlist! Grazie Mille Samiel "Molto Fantastico"! Both your affability and authenticity are wonderful, and will in all likelyhood help many others! Bravo!!!
Half a world away and yet I relate to this so much. It's funny really, however much I tried to mentally prepare myself before coming out to someone, I always ended up melting into tears. Thanks for sharing your story, all the best!
Awesome vid. It reminds me a lot of my story thus far. I choked when I trying to tell a friend a year ago at age 21. I couldn't say it. While I was trying to work it out of my mouth, she had to say it. I was depressed for 2 weeks afterwards because I was so scared. I told my best friend 2 months ago and I'm going to tell my brother in person next month when I visit him. Things have gotten so much better. Thanks for sharing your experience.
It happened exactly the same thing to me in quite the same conditions. Came out at the age of 22 to my drunk best friend (last week actually) and then to a bunch of close friends. I'm still at the point where some of my classmates at Uni keep asking me "why don't you have a girlfriend?" but I feel so much better inside that some people actually noticed that something is going on... But they just told me today that they're actually pretty sure I have a girlfriend and that's why I'm happy. lol.
@Appallas I'll tell them the truth pretty soon and it won't be a problem for me anymore to say it. But I'm afraid of the reaction of my parents because I know that at least my mom has never really been a "gay-lover"... I don't know about my father because he never asked me anything about my love life so I'm wondering whether he already knows it or not! ... So that's about it... I wanted to share that on YouTube in a comment box for some reason! You're a good person, Thank YOU! ;D
that is a true friend. some people that i knew, wen i told them they just shut me out of their life. they told one of our mutual friends to tell me to stop bothering him.
i know it shouldnt but it really confuses me when straight guy friends are okay with it. one of my close guy friends found out im bi like last week... hahah im more awkward about it than he is..
My coming out story sucks. I tried to make a vid about it, but it is really depressing, and there's enough things to cry about in the world already. :P I am happy that you're coming out was (relatively) painless, and I hope that you're in a happy place now. :D
@gustjorodedheo So happy now! I'm at a place in my life I would have never imagined a year and a half ago. I'm sure your coming out story could help people too!
It's nice to hear a positive coming out story for once, I'm gay and out to some of my family and few of my friends. I wish I could just be out to everyone but I have to deal with some really annoying legal issues before I get there... but I sure as hell want to, sigh why does life have to be so damn complicated.
Im so happy for you. You finally came out and it seems that everithing was ok. I am gay too and i am very sure of it but i still in the closet :(, i also want to come out but i dont how if you have some advices, that would be helpful o and happy new year :)
@anzr4 I'm sure I'll make a video soon with some general coming out tips. Everyone's situation is different though, so the things I say are based on my own personal experiences. Thank you for the kind comment! :-)
You are an inspiration. And I had the same reaction. While studying for finals in college, I was reading something for my biology final and then it dawn on me. In the library, I just said out loud, "Oh shit, I like boys."

Hi! I've never posted a comment or video on youtube be4 but I decided to do so after watching your story :)
I almost cried at the part when u came out to your mom, it's just so sincere and somehow I felt related to your story. And you're really lucky to have such a supportive family cuz so sad i don't :( Anyway I'm planning to come out to my mom this Christmas and I'm taking all the courage I have to do so. Hopefully everything will be alright. Thanks for the inspiring video.
@KindaGayBlog I didnt have the guts 2 tell her :( I was about 2 come out but something held me back. I guess my situation right now doesn't allow me to that. But I randomly came out 2 a girl who is the daughter of my dad's friend at the party :) It was nice talking 2 her though, she seemed 2 be understanding of my situation.
I'm only 15; but I definitely know I'm gay, and I'm just tired of living a lie. I'm kind of lucky that I'm English; I think people would generally be more okay with my homosexuality here.
Looking at all these YouTube videos is definitely making me feel more at ease, and filled with nervous excitement too.
Thanks for sharing your story, it's really inspiring, I've made up my mind to tell my best friend by Christmas. Here's hoping I stick to it! :L
Hi man, I really appreciated your video and I'll stay tuned for others.
As a lot of other people I'm still inside of the closet because I'm pretty sure my family would not support me and I want to come out when I'll be graduated and able to keep myself.
Nonetheless I want to sincerely thank you because sharing this kind of experience always help others and you are incredibly helpful and friendly.
So thank you again and greetings from Italy (sorry for my poor English),
@Rob45123 Ciao Rob! Come stai?! Grazie per bel commento! :-) My boyfriend is Italian haha! Your English is amazing, seriously. Better than most Americans to be quite honest. I'm sorry you feel your family would not be supportive. Sometimes it is best to come out when you're living more independently. If you have anymore questions or worries, don't hesitate to message me. Stay in touch.
You are such a great story teller. When you were talking about telling your mom my heart was racing so fast. It was like reliving when I was telling my parents.
You have such a nice aura about you, I like that a lot :)
@Valcuric Thank you very much! I was really nervous making this video, mostly because I'm still getting used to talking to myself in front of a camera!
Good cause your working at :] keep it up... you said your willing to help anyone in need, so I'll say the same. If you need any help i'm sure the youtube community is here for you too :] alright best to ya sam!
My mom asked if I was gay when i was nine years old but i didn't really understand what gay was even though I already knew I liked guys.When my sister came out,my mom told me she was fine with having a lesbian daughter but would never accept having a gay son cause it would be so terrible.When I did come out to her nine months later,she cried and told me she was sorry for the mean things she said and she would always love me.I wish everyone the best that decides to come out. :)
@PaperSteps That's kind of funny that she asked you at 9 years old. I barely knew what "pregnant" meant at that age. I'm so happy for you and your sister that your mom has been so accepting. I can't imagine how a parent could reject their own flesh and blood just because of their sexuality, but sadly, some kids have to endure that. Thank you again for subscribing. I'm really looking forward to getting know my fellow YouTubers! :-)
@KindaGayBlog She asked me cause I was playing with her purse, but I was so young and didn't understand that question for years haha. It still bothers her that she she has two gay kids but she has been there for the both of us and that means a lot to me. :)
You definitely have a lot of courage. I wish I had your backbone. And you're right... the longer you hide it from the world, the more it can crush your own being. I wish you all the luck. You're a brave, sweet guy. Keep it up.
@lostviewer It's the hardest thing I've had to do in my life thus far, but the liberation you feel after you do it is well worth it. Thank you for watching - I didn't plan at all for it to be 10 minutes long!
This guy looks like American idol host Ryan Seacrest.I am straight,but I am just saying.

I wanted to share that on YouTube in a comment box for some reason! You're a good person, Thank YOU! ;D

@jTaylor1011 I know, it's a really weird feeling! Like you're expecting them to freak out so it's weird when they don't.

My coming out story sucks. I tried to make a vid about it, but it is really depressing, and there's enough things to cry about in the world already. :P I am happy that you're coming out was (relatively) painless, and I hope that you're in a happy place now. :D

@gustjorodedheo So happy now! I'm at a place in my life I would have never imagined a year and a half ago. I'm sure your coming out story could help people too!

@204330129 It doesn't really sound like you're pursuing happiness. Email me if you want.

It's nice to hear a positive coming out story for once, I'm gay and out to some of my family and few of my friends. I wish I could just be out to everyone but I have to deal with some really annoying legal issues before I get there... but I sure as hell want to, sigh why does life have to be so damn complicated.

@anzr4 I'm sure I'll make a video soon with some general coming out tips. Everyone's situation is different though, so the things I say are based on my own personal experiences. Thank you for the kind comment! :-)

You are an inspiration. And I had the same reaction. While studying for finals in college, I was reading something for my biology final and then it dawn on me. In the library, I just said out loud, "Oh shit, I like boys."
Kudos to you.

@KindaGayBlog lol and the funny thing is that, I was studying with my room mate, and he looked up at me and said "Finally."

Hi! I've never posted a comment or video on youtube be4 but I decided to do so after watching your story :)
I almost cried at the part when u came out to your mom, it's just so sincere and somehow I felt related to your story. And you're really lucky to have such a supportive family cuz so sad i don't :( Anyway I'm planning to come out to my mom this Christmas and I'm taking all the courage I have to do so. Hopefully everything will be alright. Thanks for the inspiring video.

@KindaGayBlog I didnt have the guts 2 tell her :( I was about 2 come out but something held me back. I guess my situation right now doesn't allow me to that. But I randomly came out 2 a girl who is the daughter of my dad's friend at the party :) It was nice talking 2 her though, she seemed 2 be understanding of my situation.

Thank you for sharing your coming out story. :)
I'm only 15; but I definitely know I'm gay, and I'm just tired of living a lie. I'm kind of lucky that I'm English; I think people would generally be more okay with my homosexuality here.
Looking at all these YouTube videos is definitely making me feel more at ease, and filled with nervous excitement too.
Thanks for sharing your story, it's really inspiring, I've made up my mind to tell my best friend by Christmas. Here's hoping I stick to it! :L

Hi man, I really appreciated your video and I'll stay tuned for others.
As a lot of other people I'm still inside of the closet because I'm pretty sure my family would not support me and I want to come out when I'll be graduated and able to keep myself.
Nonetheless I want to sincerely thank you because sharing this kind of experience always help others and you are incredibly helpful and friendly.
So thank you again and greetings from Italy (sorry for my poor English),
Rob

@Rob45123 Ciao Rob! Come stai?! Grazie per bel commento! :-) My boyfriend is Italian haha! Your English is amazing, seriously. Better than most Americans to be quite honest. I'm sorry you feel your family would not be supportive. Sometimes it is best to come out when you're living more independently. If you have anymore questions or worries, don't hesitate to message me. Stay in touch.

It's funny... I've already come out of the closet and I still watch these videos. I just like the raw courage I see in each and every one of them.

You are such a great story teller. When you were talking about telling your mom my heart was racing so fast. It was like reliving when I was telling my parents.
You have such a nice aura about you, I like that a lot :)

My mom asked if I was gay when i was nine years old but i didn't really understand what gay was even though I already knew I liked guys.When my sister came out,my mom told me she was fine with having a lesbian daughter but would never accept having a gay son cause it would be so terrible.When I did come out to her nine months later,she cried and told me she was sorry for the mean things she said and she would always love me.I wish everyone the best that decides to come out. :)

@PaperSteps That's kind of funny that she asked you at 9 years old. I barely knew what "pregnant" meant at that age. I'm so happy for you and your sister that your mom has been so accepting. I can't imagine how a parent could reject their own flesh and blood just because of their sexuality, but sadly, some kids have to endure that. Thank you again for subscribing. I'm really looking forward to getting know my fellow YouTubers! :-)

@KindaGayBlog She asked me cause I was playing with her purse, but I was so young and didn't understand that question for years haha. It still bothers her that she she has two gay kids but she has been there for the both of us and that means a lot to me. :)

You definitely have a lot of courage. I wish I had your backbone. And you're right... the longer you hide it from the world, the more it can crush your own being. I wish you all the luck. You're a brave, sweet guy. Keep it up.

@lostviewer It's the hardest thing I've had to do in my life thus far, but the liberation you feel after you do it is well worth it. Thank you for watching - I didn't plan at all for it to be 10 minutes long!
