There was a group of friend I didn’t come out to yet. On lunch time they started talking about boys and I thought I should come out now but I kind of panicked and said nothing. My friends noticed I was stressed and they asked me what was wrong. I said I was made of Gallium and Yttrium because it spells GaY on the periodic table and I was too stressed to said it in a normal way. They took time to understand because I’m the only one who can speak with chemical element. It went very well. They just said I shouldn’t be that afraid. We didn’t really talked of it after. Anyway, I’m glad it happened.
I'm so glad that your friends were perceptive regarding your mood, and on top of it, supportive and understanding. I also really like the unorthodox way you came out; it's clever, and it sounds to me like you have good friends, what with them taking the time to work it out. It can be incredibly liberating to come out after all that fear, only to realize you didn't have to be afraid--even if that fear is completely understandable, since it deals with the unknown. I hope the rest of your journey goes equally as well, if not better.
Congratulations on putting it out there, even if it’s in code they understand. Bless you. Wish I was ready to do the same. You every courageous! Wishing you the best!
