    So yesterday I came out to my best friend. I told him that I'm bi. He asked how long have I known and I said since 8th grade. He was kinda shocked at first but he said he's cool with it. It's funny, I was stressed out for years over telling him or not. I was honestly scared that it would ruin are friendship. Moral of the story is, never expect the worst. It'll just stress you out more.

    Haha, good for you! Folks always end up worrying about what other people will think, especially the ones closest to you. I'm just glad it turned out so well, congrats.

    It will cascade from here. You will want to tell the next person and then the next person. Next thing you know......it just wont matter and you will be completely comfortable with yourself. Congratulations!
