This has turned from me welcoming you to you comforting me. Thanks again, Asghar. I'll find some time, don't worry about me. 3nodding
As for the green it should go away after a few days. Try changing your clothing, eventually it goes away.

tahariel pinnipedbuddy I have come out to some of my friends, but not my family. When I was fifteen (I'm sixteen now) I had my First Gay Experience. I was with my friend Abbe, who I knew had a crush on me. We ended up kissing at our church. (Hooray for UU churches!) Then I felt like I needed to come out to somebody, so I screwed up my courage and told two of my friends at school that I was bisexual. My friend Sade was quietly supportive, as she always is, and my friend Tiara said she didn't expect me to say that, but she hugged me when I cried. I also came out to my friend Erica, who said she wasn't really surprised and some other people who I don't know as well. I don't know when I'll ever be able to come out to my family. My family always has crap happening to them, there's never a "good time" to tell them. For example, in the last month my grandfather died, my grandmother was diagnosed with leukemia, and my mother quit her job. gonk *hugs* i understand how things like that can build up. but i promise they'll get better and you'll find a time to tell them. it may not seem like the best time, but there is no best time. *hugs more and feeds you cookies* heart my grandmother died...

Pinnipedbuddy, I know where you're coming from. Three years ago the only grandmother I knew died from cancer. I didn't even get to see her in her last days since she lived in Hong Kong. She died the day after my birthday.
*hug* It will be okay, things can only get better with time.

The original thread of coming out -- thought I might revive it.

Yeah it makes sense that such a thread would exist here.

And apparently it''s old enough to be infected with the post doubling glitch. I''ll report this when I have a chance, until then, don''t try to delete the apparent double-posts!

I didn't come out -- even to myself, really -- until I was seventeen.

I officially came out as trans when I was 17. There was never a need to come out as gay.

Everyone knew before I did. It was kind of irritating.

So, I've got this problem. I think I'll post it here, because it's sorta related to coming out.
I don't think I like guys. I'm 23 and I just left my husband because, apparently, I don't swing his way.
How did I not realize this before? Stupid, isn't it?

That's not stupid at all. Probably just subconcious denial. It took my whole life to finally come out to myself. Sometimes we'd just prefer to think we're straight average people, no matter how apparent it is that we aren't.
