I know there have been people that have come out to friends and have had great reactions and been happier for it, and I know that there have been people who have come out to friends and had bad reactions to it.
Has anyone come out to a friend, got a positive reaction, and later still regretted telling people? A cat's out of the bag sort of thing.
The reason I ask is because lately I feel like I'm trying to balance on a teeter totter when it comes to telling more people. Of course this is all moot at the current state, considering my girlfriend would rather people didn't know and I wouldn't want to break her trust by telling people without her being on board. Especially considering she knows both the people I would want to tell.
Ho hum.
Edit: Since I don't think I conveyed this in the original post. The issue isn't whether or not to do it, regardless of my girlfriend's position on it. The issue I'm having is that I keep going back and forth on whether or not I want to. Just feel a bit unstable.
