Coming out to a friend

[weeklyrentalbb]

Sorry if it's long but I'm recovering from drinking last night and I feel I have be thorough. I'm too hungover to check for errors, and there's too much emotion behind it for me to re-read it at the moment. Here goes....

A group from my Co-ed fraternity including me and my best friend and I decided to hit Vegas for the weekend. The only girl that came along with us already knew that I was into guys so she was always with me, as was my best friend. He's always the ladies man and he's the person I am the most. We left the rest of the guys to go partying at Tao, where I knew I wanted to get wasted.

Whenever I drank it was always with him and I'd never get too buzzed to ensure that I didn't spill the beans. Well on Saturday I was looking to get trashed and I knew there would be no way I could let him find out about me while I was drunk or through my wasted girl friend. I wanted to make sure I told him face to face. Once we got out of the cab as we walked toward the club I broke it to him. He stood still for a second and seemed in deep thought but he picked up his walking speed again and said it was fine with him, and he didn't care. I was so relieved I could finally be myself around him. He seemed cool and all but at times in line he wouldn't make eye contact with me and would chat with our girl friend.

After we got inside, we got drinks and started partying like never before. After a few rounds the three of us ended up in the corner just dancing and under heavy influence. He came closer to me and said something I couldn't hear. Our girl friend yelled in my ear asking me if I heard him but I didn't so I went to him and leaned in so he could speak in my ear.

"You know what you said earlier?" he asked. "yeah?" I screamed back. "I'm same as you"

I was surprised, I got a chill down my spine. He took out his camera and showed me a picture of the guy he was seeing. I was so happy at that moment, I could feel it through the deep haze of alcohol.

I turns out he had been wanting to tell me for the longest time but never knew how. He figured me for a straight guy who was just quiet. When I told him, he was trapped thinking about how to tell me. I'm so happy he did. Before him I felt so alone, aside from two other friends who knew.

It's unbelievable how fast life can turn around. During the rest of our time there we talked about hot guys we both have seen in the classes we shared. Apparently I have competition now, since he likes them as well, lol.

I went to Vegas just to unwind, however, I'm returning happier then ever with someone who knows what I am going through, someone who I can share everything with, and someone whose going to help me find Mr. Right. I'm not alone anymore, no words can describe how happy I am.

That's kinda how i came out (being bisexual) to my first person. I was at a party at a good girl friend of mine's house and everyone else had gone to bed. we ended up in the basement (just be and her so we could smoke) and some how we go on the topic of being different and having secrets and i told her i was bi (i had only been absolutely sure of this for about a year or so) and she told me she was too! We've always been good friends and she was already pretty sure that i was, even though everyone else was really dense on the subject.

Wow, what a wonderful story. I am so happy for you also. Just to let you know that the closer you are to a person, the easier it is to drift away. Competition is a bad thing and will kill off any friendship. Its all about giving in and be happy you've given up. I am not trying to pop your bubble, just giving you an awesome advice the next time you feel like you're both competing for someone.

Strange how sometimes we're scared of nothing but shadows. Congratulations, and welcome to the other side.

Thanks for all the support guys. My best friend and I are around each other a lot more and we even scope out guys. He likes asian guys while I fancy everyone else so I don't see us clashing on guys much. If anyone did interest both of us though, I would let him go for it rather than myself, as long as I get to watch, LOL. I jest, i jest. Life got a whole lot more fun.

Great story, makes me wonder if my friends may do that to me one day. I wouldof jumped on him if i had heard him say that.

That is my dream.

When I went to Vegas, all my friends got way too drunk and ended up leaving me alone at the club PURE in Caesars Palace. I was free and in sin city, I could have done whatever I wanted and nobody would have known!!! But instead, my paranoia kicked in and I ended up making out with a 30 year old milf from england *sigh* Of course, like any typical dude, I made sure to take pics of the chick and other random chicks i had met throughout the night so I could go back to the hotel and tell all my buddies how many girls I met and how fun i had without them....
