Not when did you come out, that's a whole different story, but when did you know you were a gay bro?

I've always been excited by other guys, I remember being very young (like 7/8) and getting a bit too into the wrestling. My parents turned it off ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

I was around 13 when someone said something about 'gay' and I learned it was a whole thing. It was like a light bulb moment and a bunch of things instantly made sense. And that was it, came out to some friends not long after and that was it.

How about you guys?

I've known since I was about 9 or 10 but conditioned and learned to repress it since then after being caught in bed with my best friend (crush). Hope that part of me changes one day.

Hey, that sounds not so fun. I hope you're able to find peace one day too.

Thanks. Sucks that even in my early 20s im still afraid to come out to even just coworkers. Everyone likes to say theres no big deal about it anymore but it definitely changes how people see you.

I mean it can do I suppose, it sounds like it's changed how you see yourself a bit perhaps?

I like that saying 'the people who matter don't mind, and the people who mind don't matter' in those situations.

I'm sure you'll find a way to be unafraid one day, maybe see if there are any LGBTQ+ orgs near you that can give you some support or a place to talk?

Hope that part of me changes one day.

The repression? Whoever caught you, how did they react?

It was his mom and she was not really mad just disappointed in him which feels worse. Theres other details but really I just remember the negativity I recieved. Since then I never really got over it.
