Being gay myself i can totally understand where your coming from, it was one of the hardest things i ever had to do, when i told my bestfriend..i tried telling her in code atfirst and it didnt work, so i just told her, all she said was 'Is that it?' If these people really care about you, they should be able to look past it, i have friends that totally disagree with it, but they are able to look past it, because being gay doesnt become me, its just one small part of me. Just be strong about it, dont feel you have to rush it, why does anyone need to know right now ? When your ready just let it be, If you ever wanna talk, just let me know...im on msn tooo...^_^ Good Luck. x
