I just want to say today is the first day I've had the realization of, "Wow, I'm gay."
Coming out to others is one thing, but to yourself is a whole other story.
It's scary and confusing and I think it will be a life long journey of learning new things about myself every day.

I agree,, i thought that a few months ago when i told a few friends that i am into men now, that i kind of accepted it myself,, but now i worry about what some friends and family would say if i ever got honest. i wonder now if maybe i should try to do what is expected and not what i feel. a shame we all can not just live our lives without fear.
I think coming out to yourself is the biggest step of all. I've been there just a few months ago and it was an absolutely mindblowing experience. In retrospect, a lot of things made sense and I had a feeling of exhilaration at finally realizing that I'm gay. Yes, you will learn new things about yourself every day and I wish you the best of luck on your journey.
