I've just outed myself to two trusted colleagues tonight. I've crossed my Rubicon. I'm finally admitting that I have a right to be who and what I am.

You know, I really like that phrase ... outed myself but it doesn't seem real and I can't believe I actually did it. Not telling my family though .... never.

You know, I'll tell you all this... I'm crying with the support you're showing me.
One of you have echoed what I said to the first person I told, I was hesitant to tell her because once the genie was out of the bottle it was out. It was actually a very moving and memorable moment.
So is this. Thank you all.

And how old are you?
I hope this doesn't mean that you've just spent the last x number years with no partner because you're embarrassed about being Gay.
That would be sad.
That's why you're ringing up hetro phone sex lines and talking to the women!!!!

Congratulations. I hope your two trusted colleagues continue to accept you now that you have outed yourself. They should feel privileged that you chose them to be the first to know. Hopefully you will continue to receive positive reactions from those you choose to tell but remember there are those that may turn so be prepared for those moments. I hope there will not be too many of those for you. Many parents suspect but wait to be told. I'm sure you will tell them when you are ready. Good luck and congratulations!

Well done, you've taken the first steps to being yourself when and where you want to be. I wish you all the luck in the future, and don't let anyone put you down. If they do, cut them out, they're not worth it. Congratulations x

Perhaps, it would be nice to say it out than writing because your expression may be different than what were written by you. I always love a woman like you. It is not boring because there is love . hate, intelligence, mischief, cunning , forward , drawback, and so on simply because you are humanbeing.

Your family may already suspect. But good for you. You have the right to be the person you are. And be very proud of yourself.

Is that why my charm didn't work on you? Drats, well I can still be proud of you. Maybe you and I can go on a double date some night.
