I was with you until the second part. I grew up in a fairly liberal area, with an open and accepting family, and I still was terrified to come out to anyone for a long time, because you can hope for and think the best and there will still always be the chance of rejection (and much worse). Some people react differently when it's someone close to them--and not for the better. You do what you have to do to feel safe, even if it means protecting yourself from people that you know, rationally, aren't going to hurt you.

Yeah, MTE. If someone I'd been friends with for years revealed that they'd been terrified to come out to me, I'd feel nothing but empathy for them. The last thing I would do is make their painful insecurity and fear about me.

When it comes to people's prejudices you just never know for sure. Also, our insecurities often aren't rational. That goes for most deeply-felt insecurities, IMO; they're just not rational.

AYRT exactly. It doesn't have to make sense--not to mention that coming out and existing openly and admitting crushes should be a personal choice anyway, and one of those choices is "I don't want to do it"

I'm also thinking OP is probably on the younger side, since millenials and older can more clearly remember when thr best you could reasonably assume was that someone was "okay" with gay people, not even a full ally.
