I’m proud of you <3 You rock! Everyone who comes out is paving the way for future generations.

Congrats on having the courage to do it, glad it went well.

I’'m glad it went well, it must be a relief to be able to get on and live your life. Well done.

That takes a lot of courage to do and it’s something to be proud of.

I hope that in the future it becomes easier for anyone else who is in the same situation. In some places it is, but in others it’s still very close minded.

I’m happy you found the courage to openly be yourself. I have two boys and it would kill me to know they couldn’t tell me who they really were. I just hope if it came down to it that they could tell me knowing that no matter what sexuality they are I would always love and support them.

I am certain it wasn’t easy, but nothing worth it ever is. Congratulations, and here’s to being you.

Hoping, much like yourself, that the stigma and pain behind coming out vanishes sooner rather than later.

I’m glad it went well! It takes a lot of guts to do, especially if you’re not sure how it will be received. I decided to come out a long time ago and cut out the people who didn’t accept me - life is too short to spend it hiding yourself from people. My mental health rebounded a lot after coming out, and I’m generally a much happier person now.

Be unapologetically queer! You’ll be a beacon for those who are still in the closet!

I’m happy for you :)

I’m sorry that you had to endure so many years of pain and secrecy, but congratulations on taking that step and opening up a new chapter for yourself. Sometimes we all need to be reminded that it’s never too late to start being yourself and living your best life.
