    Recently I’ve been more comfortable if admitting to myself I’m gay. I’ve slowly been telling a select few people. Recently I’ve had the urge to just let everyone know. Just feel like a giant secret I want to tell people. Has anyone felt the same experience. Now that I’m ok with it, I feel energetic about telling people but still haven’t quite had the courage.

    Hello
    Accepting your gay yourself I think was the biggest hurdle to get over and you have achieved this.
    You seem ready for stage two and your already out to a selective few. It might be best to carry on this path.
    Eventually most people will know.
    I ended up putting a bisexual flag on my Facebook once i had told the important people. Don't rush and take your time, well done you....

    I have told a number of people....and nobody really cares that much. They just want me to be happy.

    The issue is that I haven’t quite accepted it myself. Still working on that.

    Thanks for all the replies. I think the additional question is what impact will it have on my current relationship as I’m married.

    I’ve come out to one gay friend and a few friends that are bi. It’s getting easier as time goes on. This site has definitely helped.’

    If your currently married to the opposite sex, coming out to them isn't easy . People react differently. You will know when it's time . I feel free now.
