Like I say; ask 1,000 gay people you get 1,001 different responses. There is no one way to be out. Though leaving your kids ... I don't approve of that and don't know any who would

Knott's an incredible Mom and makes co parenting work with her ex-DH. She's amazing.

Anyway it's not one event. I "came out" in '74. It's not like the Ellen Puppy Episode, grab a microphone in an airport and announce and that's it It's lots of decisions each day. I can imagine being in a situation it might be advisable to be closeted like right now on TE or say I was traveling in a different culture "You're wearing your QAF t'shirt in Iran? "

Imagine having to think about everything from the picture on your desk or when asked what you did over the weekend what to you say? Can you use pronouns or not? Is your boss cool or not.

From non verbal stuff like a ring to just casual stuff in a break room about weekend plans who's ok with it or not, how do I edit my life?

Try it sometime for a day or two and see how you'd fare For example in many states here one can still be fired.

LPH, your friend will be fine with a friend like you.
