Did you lose any friends when you came out?

Honestly this is my biggest fear. I hate loosing friend and I really do like the friends I have im just worried about being alone I mean the worst scenario I could get is I find someone who may be male on top of being fat and most of my friends get turned off by this and if it doesnt work out with that person then im completely alone.


If your friends would let your sexual preference color their opinion of you then they're not true friends are they?

You just have to ask yourself two questions to know whether something like this will bother your friends.

1) How long have I known my friends/How well do I know my friends?
If the answer to this is "A very long time/I know them very well" then I think you'll be fine.

2) Are my friends open minded?
If your friends are the sort of people who don't like to see others mistreated then I doubt that your coming out will matter too much to them.

recently I began talks with one of my good friends about sharing an appartment this all sounded dandy except for to things 1.expenses which is something we have to work out and 2. If I get into a relationship or start dating well hes definitely going to find out question is can he live with it?


I would suggest you talk to him about it first, it would be better to know sort of how he'd react than to have him see you walk in with your new date and possibly wig out. Though if he is, as you said, your good friend he shouldn't have a problem with it.
