I'm sure they will get over it after some time. And if they dont well, maybe they arent decent friends if they cant accept you for who you are. Plus as long as your happy it doesnt matter what anyone else thinks about it.

It doesn't matter what others think or if they accept you. I think it's important what you feel inside after coming out of the closet and ask yourself the reason why you've decided to come out of the closet. I'm sure seeking others' approval isn't one of the reasons. So why bother with what others think? Some of us are slower to accept alternative lifestyles or choices in life, but that doesn't mean they aren't your friends. Give them time and space to figure out their own response towards you. But don't have to fret yourself with their responses, whether favourable or otherwise.

I have never understood why anyone (other than maybe the parents who have to readjust their thinking about grand kids etc... ) really cares unless they are trying to sleep with that person.What does sexual orientation,who someone loves/has sex with matter?
I am very live and let live about most things that are really not my business.

"Why can't people live and let live?"
When I first saw that question, and the topic it was in, the first thing that came to my mind was God.
