Coming Out Archive- Rick's Story

My coming out story by Rick Adams.

I was 20 when I came out (forgot to mention in the video!)

Sorry for the heavy editing, I had to get it to less than 10 minutes to upload!

Feel free to leave a comment and tell me what you think.

just stumbled upon this, you're so cute.

Nice video :) Thanks for sharing. I'm glad that you didn't experience any negativity.

Really nice video Rick. Can't believe I haven't watched this until now. It made me laugh when you were talking about the 'geeky' circle at school and it was really touching to hear you talking about your experiences and life in general over the last 10 years or so. It really like to meet up after all these years to catch up and do Beverly Crusher impressions for old times sake.

Hey, thanks for sharing your story...been looking at a few videos today and it's really nice to see people from the Uk telling their story.

I'm glad everything's worked out for you :o) ...and just to randomly add that I really like your t-shirt :op lol

That took a lot of courage, you did a lovely job. I'm sure it will mean a lot to people battling with the same decision. Thanks for sharing. Best of luck and take care.

My first thought was that anyone who can sit like you did for 10min is obvisouly a person worth learning about. I'm65,never came out in words but I lived with a boyfriend for ten years so everyone knew in my family.He went to family functions and well treated.But your way is much better. Enjoy life,its to much work to be miserable. Michael (sorry cant resist perky sayings at end)

Im guessing u saw my coming out vids... during the 70's it was much harder to come out, there are many bad coming out stories of older guys who like me got no support...bright side is that ur generation is benefiting from years of media exposure etc... and are more so than ever standing up to be counted. glad u had the courage to... stay strong!
