Those 3 were the big ones. Unfortunately I think it is prudent to be careful and more aware of surroundings today for one’s safety….more so than just a few years ago.

I was married to a woman with kids when I finally came out I can't even begin to tell you how badly I was shaking when I had that conversation with her and my kids

@Ray Valentino Kenny: I never really came out I felt like my siblings didn’t have to sit my parents down and tell them they were straight. Why do I have to do it? So I just started saying I met a guy and we’re going out tonight if they care they asked if not, I didn’t care

I came out later in life, after I had been married to a woman and had kids. Fear: 1. Coming out in the first place. 2. Fears of family rejection.

My only fear was losing my mom and dad. I was married to a woman and after I found myself, I found my husband. I found my real truth. coming out turned out AMAZING!

As a teenager I always thought maybe I'd be lucky and die before I had to come out🫣 I came out at 20 because I never intended to live a lie

Knowing I would lose the majority of my family! Their loss, not mine.

1. I was married to a wonderful woman so deeply hurting someone I care about was awful.

Coming out for me is not an option. It is not an option for personal safety reasons. For those who did come out congratulations and Good luck.

I was married to a woman, so it was really tough for me and my family. It took time for all of us, but my ex wife was my biggest supporter and best friend. Forever grateful to her for that.

Pat Simon :
I came out to everyone besides my parents because I knew my mom would react badly. Brother, sister in law, cousins, etc. and long story short, she reacted exactly how I anticipated, and it was ugly for a while. I was an embarrassment to her. She still has no interest in my love life. It affects me so much sometimes I have trouble holding hands and showing affection in public because I sometimes feel like it’s been instilled in me that loving another man is shameful. I have some stuff to work through lol 🫠

I had to get to a point where I loved myself enough to be willing to loose everyone else. Hard to accept that people may not like the real you, but 100% worth it. I only wish I had done it sooner.

15 years later, I still feel like I’m coming out, constantly. Once you get over all of the things you’ve mentioned with your family, you have to go through it with different people that come into your life at different stages

The three hardest parts about coming out for me: 1) Losing emotional support from family even though they said they ‘accepted’ me. 2) Feeling like I had to start life completely on my own no backup, just survival. 3) The deep loneliness that hit after like even when I was out, I still didn’t feel fully seen or safe. Coming out isn’t just a moment, it’s a whole journey

The most interesting thing was how most of what I feared was in my head. Not like that for everyone. But my relationships became authentic. I finally let ppl know me
