Hey P!
I just found your site and I think that you've done a fantastic
job with
it! You have a characteristic that I would love to have. You
actually
sit down and write on a regular basis. I love to write and have
the
imagination and a way with words that I love to share and have
gotten
great feedback on when I actually show it to others. Unfortunately,
I
can never seem to find the will/discipline to sit down and write
the way
I should. You sound like you have a good head on your shoulders
and
your feet firmly planted on the ground with a good future ahead
of you.
I hope your parents get through the next stage of thier separation
in a
manner that doesn't cause you any more distress than is necessary.
Take
it easy and I hope you do well on your finals!

wait to
read the rest of your life story..Isn't it amazing that most

Ok for a start i think this is a really origional idea and it
is so
cool!
I think this could help alot of people with their coming out
and/or
dealing with themselves, i myself had an easy coming out but
i know of
alot of people who had a very hard time, i can't empathise with
them
but i feel for them, as i feel for you...as i said it's a great
page
and i will tell people about it, finally a page worth reading,
keep it
up u r a great person for doing this!

Don't know how or where I found a link to your homepage but,

You and your story touched deep in my heart.
By what I have read here you must be a very special person.

Wonderful! 22 years ago I dealt with exactly the same thing.
. .and it
didn't work out quite the same but things have healed over the
the
years. I would never trade all of the experiences that I went
through
for anything. . .there was a lot of pain and a lot of happiness.
Thanks for putting this out here. |

Teens the world over have feeling wheather Gay/
Bisexuial or streight and should be repected be
cause due to folks reactions most remain in the
closets leading dobble lives at best. relogious
coummity is the worst in codemming and pointing
fingers at other when they have problems themselfs.
The bible never says anything about Homosexuilty
only people's attuide's as well as being grace-
full toward other of different taste's.
take the cause of the proutute and Jesus in the
bible.Is it any wonder youth's kill themselves in
record numbers every year? Lets stop pointing the
finger all the time. Judge not because you shall
be Judged when the time come's Enough said.

Even though I am not sure which language to use [either French
or
English]for this message, I'd like to telle you how I thought
your
story was great.
Your story is probably the story of millions of us all around
the
world.
Sharing it like you did is doing a great job.
It is a potential help for those too many people fighting the
world in
their closet of misery, imposed upon them by three thousand
years of
Judeo-Christian culture.
Si seulement les chose politico-sociales pouvaient changer plus
rapidement!!!!!
Je suis, a cet instant precis, une vraie victime de l'ignorance
des
americains qui ne veulent pas de moi dans le pays ou mon partenaire
paie ses impots comme n'importe quel autre citoyen.
Si plus d'un pouvaient avoir acces a votre histoire, qui sait
si ca ne
m'aiderait pas?????
Once more, thanks for your great job. Keep it going.

Wow! The stuff you've been through, even before going to uni!
I didn't
tell any one I was gay until I came to uni, and even now most
people
still don't. Reading you're diary has given me more confidence
to tell
more people, maybe even my family. Good luck with everything.

I can't actually remember how I found this place. alt.teens.gay,
maybe.
anyway, you seem like a really cool person, so I bookmarked
your site.
Like you said, if I read your life story, I could at least put
something
in here.
Moving on, I would really like it if you e-mailed me sometime.
You seem
like the type who wouldn't talk for a while, then act like you
have
forgotten about someone. Besides, I do have to even up the score,
and my
webpage doesn't have autobiographical info on it, so an e-mail
conversation seems the best way to go ;-)
Well, you didn't think I'd do it here, did you?
P.S. That poll has some pretty interesting stats to it. I'll
be sure to
bring it up again sometime.
Nice to meet you

I have read your story about coming out and found it very courageous
of
you to do that. I am still trying to figure out who I am and
would like
to find out more. I live in the United States and live in a
society that
is very homophibic. I am Native American and it is one of the
things
that is not permitted so I did not come out at all. I had several
different boyfriends in high school, and onto college. Also
I was also
dating a girl at the same time in highschool. We had never kissed
or
practually touched each other romatically. I didn't find her
attractive
at all. I joined a lot of sports that made it hard for people
to notice
that I was gay, but there were still the teasing a hatred toward
me.
This didn't put me down. I stood strong. When I left for College
I met
this girl I really liked but also I met this guy who I also
liked. I
stayed with both for awhile and finally broke it off with the
guy.
I was not sure what sexuality I was until recently. Now it is

Just read your coming out story, and I couldnt help but cry.
I'm 19 years old and am in the process of comeing out to my
family and
friends. I've been quite luky so far as my Mum is being very
supportive
(my dad dosnt know yet) as are the majority of my friends. Though
I
know I've got a long way to go yet.
Thanks for sharing your story, it realy does help knowing that
other
people have survived what I'm going through at the moment.

Dear "P": Just read your coming-out story, and I felt
I had to
congratulate on an excellent piece of writing, excellent both
because
you express yourself very well and because your recounting of
the
coming-out experience is so thoughtful and sincere. I read it
straight
through to the end (something which I rarely do with other people's
life stories).
Keep writing. |

Hey P! First of all, i wish youd PLEASE give me your email,
i have so
many questions for you. Im a nice lookin 21 yr old college guy
from the
US. your history of coming out story brought stinging tears
to my eyes.
mostly cause i felt through your beautiful writing how scary
it all was.
I think id feel exactly the things you did if I came out. I'm
not out to
anyone. Your story makes me wonder if i can live this lie the
rest of my
life. Like you, I know my family will love me, but i also know
i will be
viewed as a disappointment and a disgrace to my religion. Well,
I hope
your heart finds me and these words one day so we can chat.
Thanks

to put
his glorious pics on the web. However, after reading your coming
out
story, which you have so thoughtfully included on your site,
all I can
say is that I am in awe of how truly extraordinary you are!
I wish you
peace, health and love all your life my friend...and I must
say that
"meeting" you in this way is one truly
great honour!

I don't yet know what your real name is but I am happy to have
read
your story. I live in the States (that rogue territory). I am
27 and
went to a private Catholic school. I did not come out, though
I wish I
had. Strangly I came out in the Army (1990-1993) to my friends.
Just
this last year did I come out to my brother and then to my mother,
I
won't tell my father for many reasons, but I want to. I admire
you very
much for for having the fortitude to do so while you were still
growing
up, I think that I would be in a better place if I had.

it is

Your story is the most absorbing account of growing up gay that
I have
read in a long time. There are so many ways in which it parallels
my
own fantasies of what a gay life might have been, had my father
not put
restrictions on my activites at the age of 11, before I entered
secondary school. I was at university (and 23) before I was
'picked up'
at a cinema by Robin, who started my gay life.
I am now 73 and can, with many thanks to Robin, look back to
a life
filled with love and happiness.
Thank you for the best web page that I have found in my surfing

What a great story, keep up the writing,you could publish a
short story
regarding your life. I think many young gay men would find it
interesting and amusing.Perhaps it would help others deal with
their
own lives,and the pitfals of being openly gay at school or work.

Dear London boy,
It's a very hard situation in a
gay life to coming out. I think
you are very brave and strong
enough to tell a truth. I'm now
almost 30 and knowing myself
about my sexual orientation.
When I was in school ,I had a
same problem like you and
try to reject them. Now I'm
more open to some friends
but never talk to my mom.
I'm afraid that I will hurt her
feeling and just let her keep
guessing why I don't get
married. I know she will still
love for what I'm and I hope
one day she will accept it.
God bless you,
Norman

Excellent page, and needless to say I'm so sorry to hear of
your breakup
but the best thing is to look back, look at yourself in the
present, and
keep moving forward because inertia can really kill you inside
if you
stall after a breakup... Love and best wishes, Pete |

no proof
to substantiate the claim.
Keep up the good work.

Ok this message may seem weird BUT
a)Amazing site well written cool and moving (see above messages)
b) don't you get sick of all the ass-kissing that blatently
in a
majority of the cases is just a way of "buttering you up"
(excuse the
phrase) and hoping that you will fancy them
However it is a great site and the story is moving
BUT GUYS DON'T FORGET! THIS AND MUCH MUCH WORSE IS HAPPENING

Hi
I have just read your story and I find it difficult to comprehend
how
difficult it must have been in school.
This is the FIRST time in my life am actully putting thoughts
on paper,
which have have locked in my heart for 23years. I have not only
the
fear of telling my friends but being a muslim it would mean
a total
isolation from every one.
Maybe it's easy to write this becasue I don't know you. Coming
from
quite a strict back ground I have no idea who to approach or
where to
go.
I am a pharmacy student at bradford universty.
Thank you taking time out to write your story, it's comforting
to know
that your not the only one.
I would be gratful for any advice you may have for me beacasue
I simply
don't knwo how to meet some one and I can never go to a place
full of
people who I didn't know. I would love some contact, just to
talk on
one 2 one.
Best Wishs
Qamar. |

Hi there,
Wow, where should I start?? I read your whole history page,
and I would
like to tell you how amazed I am at your courage!! While I was
reading,
it was so emotional!!! At times I laughed, at times I cried....
There is a few things that I will have to come to terms with
and you
definately gave me more courage to do so!!
Thanks so much!! And did I add that you are kind fo cute!? :o)
Your the best!! |

Thanks for your beautiful web site. I salute your courage in
high
school (or 6th form as you call it). I have to admit I was too
frightened back in the 60's to be open about my gayness to the
kids in
school. And I'm sure even today, many young people decide not
to
expose themselves to the problems that would come from it. I
wish
there were a lot more people like your friend Andy. Anyway,
you
touched my heart very much, I had a few tears at the recognition
of so
many of my own feelings and fears as a young gay guy. I believe
the
Internet is becoming a great help to anyone trying to deal with
these
kinds of issues. I hope that your story is widely read and helps
to
keep fostering the change in understanding and acceptance of
people who
may be different from others. |

Hey P.
My God, you are such an inspiration to me. This is the first
time I ever read someone's diary page till the very last bit.
I am a straight woman, none the less I find you and your life
amazing. Your strength and the realization of your sexuality.
I had never met (I haven't met you, I know, it just sounds better...sheesh)
anyone as interesting and so full of life. You are a pretty
cool guy.
Ok buddy, enough butt kissing. I was serious though.
Take care. |

Very nicely written. As the cliche goes...I feel your pain.
And likewise, I feel your bravery and courage in the face of
rejection. I believe that labels are dangerous and often cruel.
So for me, you're not gay or anything other than human. We have
a lot in common...I'm human, too. Female, straight, but mostly
just human. Again, well done and thank you for the experience
of living your experience. Humans are so very complex and interesting,
aren't we? Luck to you. |

It took me two days to read your life's story from when you
were in
high school till the time you started the university. It took
me quiet a
while before I came out of the closet. Like some people I got
married,
and had children, but after my mother past away, I came out
to alot of
people, to the point of my oldest daughter telling me never
to come back
into the household. To tell you the truth I'm glad I am very
gay. I love
the male body alot better than the female body.
Anyway, keep up the good work that you are doing. Chow for now.
The
whole article was a bloody good piece of work ole chap. By for
now. |

I am so touch by your history. I strongly admire/agree that
you have
done a great job in coming out to your parents and to your friends.
Another surprising thing that I learned from your history is
that
European society is as conservative as the Asians! All this
while I was
of the opinion that gays in Europe is so lucky because you have
a more
open society, a more receptive and adaptive culture towards
gays/lesbians than Asians. But I am completely wrong after reading
your
stories!!!
I am sad and feel sorry for myslef because I did not / do not
/ will
not have the courage to come out in front of anybody who are
not gays.
Non of my relatives, from my parents to my brothers/sisters
uncles and
aunties knows that I am gay. I draw a VERY CLEAR DIVIDING LINE
between
my personal life with that of my working life and my social
life. I
have a group of straight colleagues and friends that I go out
with,
that I play sports with. And I have a group of intimate gay
friends
that share all my |

READ YOUR STORY. THIS HAS TO BE A GREAT COMFORT TO MANY, CONFUSED

THIS MOMENT. YOUR DETAILED STORY WAS GENTLE AND POINTFUL. NICE
JOB.
DO WISH YOU WELL. THERE IS NO DOUBT, AFTER READING YOUR STORY,
WITH
YOUR STRONG CONVICTIONS, AND YOUR DESIRE OF HAVING A DIRECTION
SUCCESS IS IN THE MAKING FOR YOURSELF.
CONTINUE TO BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF, AND YOUR DEAREST FRIENDS.
GOOD LUCK

I have
ever had to do . Thank you for sharing your story with the World.

I read the coming out narrative and was very moved by your honest
and
courage, coupled with your ability to express yourself in such
a warm
and lucid style.
I'm a Duke grad in Caroline du Nord and was also interested
in the
cultural background you documented.
Oh, and you are seriously and dangerously good looking (just
in case you
had any lingering doubts . . .) |

Hi P, nice entries again this week. I have found another counter
that
you may be interested in. It may be a little large for the space
you
have got though - I haven't seen all of the options - and it
doesn't
provide stats for you. However, you can get it to display as
many
digits as you want just by adding another 15 to the width for
each
number you want in the html code. The site is
http://counter.bloke.com. Give it a go. Anyhow - have a nice
weekend.

What an incredible story! I often wonder what my life would
have been
like had I come out while still in school. Instead, I went through
high school and college hiding a very large part of my life
from
everyone, even my closest friends, some of whom may have also
been
closeted. In retrospect, I could have helped many people understand
homosexuality just as you did. Right now I am considering the
possiblity of coming out at work, as I am quite respected there
and
just might be able to convert a lot of homophobes in the process
-- or
lose a lot of credibility...
Your history, however, has renewed my confidence that people
*can*
understand and accept me for who I really am. Thanks for all
you've
done! |
