So telling people has been hard. I have alot of friends who are just hateful, they always have been. It never really bothered me because I was in the closet, but now that im out and want my relationship to be a public part of my life its very hard. These are good friends to for like 10+ years. Thing is though alot of them "deny" it. And I dont really blame them. Most of the time when we hang out im crawling out from under one of my cars or trucks, covered in oil, with a million parts everywhere, talking about my latest and greatest change. Or ill be headbanging to the latest deathmetal album, and have to mute it when its time to order pizza. Its driving me nuts. Should i just let them live in denial, or be more open about it. (they all have a clue now but I have yet to confirm or deny)
Some people are still quite uncomfortable talking about an issue like this. Just don't force it on them - that's what makes people uncomfortable around gays.
