My parents were shocked, yes. My mom was supportive enough. My dad, not so much at first, but he's slowly gotten used to the idea, although I think he's still ashamed of it. My community doesn't really care about that sort of thing so nobody bothered me about it or acted shocked.
And I of course have many supportive friends in my community.
Girl, just come out to your friends first, they'll help you. I'm still not out to my parents but that's because I don't care for them, and I don't think you should really have to come out, I'll come out when I come home with a boyfriend.
No to shocked and yes supportive. They really don't care at all. I also have never been bullied because a lot of people know me in my city and I have so many friends that would stick up for me.
Most of my friends have been surprised but supportive. One of them actually still doesnt believe that I'm gay but the other night a few friends and I were out drinking on the streets (we are too poor to get into clubs ) and they both remarked that now they know I'm gay they realize just how excessively camp I can get when tipsy xD

This! I don't think I'm really comin out. If they ask if I'm gay I will say yes. Until then they don't need to know.
I'm not out yet but I still can't believe none of my friends haven't suspected a single thing yet. They're so oblivious It's like the only way for them to even think I'm gay they would physically have to see me sucking a dick
