liveoddly: (You were saying?)

I know this might not be the best thing to say (or the best person to hear it from), and I don't know your situation or the people around you, but honestly, my friends and family have mostly been amazing. Admittedly I didn't so much come out of the closet as slowly come to the realisation that the closet was a lie (read: I was never exactly closeted, I just didn't develop much of a sexuality until my late teens and my thoughts when I first kissed a girl were "Huh. Okay.") but... just a reminder that, while the world sucks in a lot of ways, there are people who will be supportive and good to you.

Again, I don't know your experience or your family/friends, but given how much emphasis is (rightly) put on the dangers of coming out, it felt like I should offer the other side of it. The only family member of mine who really treated me differently was my granny, who was batshit insane anyway, and now that I'm out of school read, have no social life, I come into contact with way more supportive, friendly people than I do homophobes, biphobes, and bullies.

This was probably entirely unwarranted and unwanted. I'll be in the corner.

I don't think this was unwarranted at all. It's always helpful to share experiences.
