    This is seriously the best. I love how you are not afraid to be yourself and come out and that's a strong characteristic many people wish for! you should be proud and happy of who you are and not let anybody ruin your life or mood. You are who you are. and people will love you for the true you!

    I liked how you started out with "boundaries don't exist", It surprised me to hear that you- someone acts and appears so strong- have been having an inner battle with yourself since the SIXTH GRADE! The Hannah Montana reference was amazing, your smiles you get when you started talking about finally getting in a relationship made me smile along with you, that rollercoaster you had with your parents sounds truly saddening, but I'm glad you're strong enough to go through it! Never stop smiling! :)

    Hey, I used to watch you're videos all the time, but then I disappeared from youtube for a year and now that I'm back, I started watching them again. I really enjoy you're videos and I'm happy that you are comfortable with who you are after all that struggling. Stay strong dude :)

    This is one of the best coming out videos I have ever seen. You're smart, thoughtful, and eloquent and you're describing your inner thoughts so detailed and precisely. For these reasons this video is definitely going to help many young people who are in a similar situation. I watched this video several times because I like it so much ... and your personality.

  • @Davidoutt
    @Davidoutt 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    You should be so proud of yourself Matt. It takes a lot to come out, but in the end it's one of the best things you can do to no longer censor yourself in any way.
    But I'm so glad that I can call myself your friend, and I'm so happy that I could be a part of your coming out in any way. :)

    Oh when you started talking I was like, god the same exact thing happened to me, I was the same about not accepting it and not even acknowledging it. I think I am gonna make a video about my coming out story some day. You are so cute, I am glad things ended up fine with you! xx

    I'm glad you're getting the encouragement from your friends. Hopefully, your parents will wake up eventually. It just sounds like they're having a tough time coming to grips with your news. :)

    You know I'm proud of you and all that good ish. The video was super intriguing and I feel like your story in middle and high school will be able to correlate with other people and the world and everyone's just going to love this and I'm so proud of you, again. I just think you're awesauce and I know you know xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox

    @AJBlue94 11 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I agree 100% with the labels stuff at the beginning. Part of my whole acceptance struggle was trying to find a label that fit what I was feeling. Turns out, the labels are for OTHER ppl to classify you. They aren't for you to classify yourself. I like guys and girls, both to different degrees, but I wouldn't call myself bisexual. Others will call me that, I'm just being me.

    @dave83201 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you for your story. I grew up in a small town in Idaho, and by the time I realized what I was, I literally thought I was the only gay in the state. It took every ounce of mental ability I had to watch myself to make sure I didn't act or talk gay. The burden of being on constant guard against my own nature was crushing. Please make an up-date, and finally re-post that live coming out video

    What a great story Matt! I've watched it before but thought I'd check it out again. I don't want to sound stalkerish, but this video makes me love you so much! You are amazing and for some reason everytime I watch your videos it makes me really happy! You are so smart and your thoughts are so well organized I get something from you everytime I watch your videos. Thanks for posting these they always have something that helps me in my everyday life. Your the best!

And I've met you once actually lol. But this video is amazing. I don't even know what else to say besides that. Just wow c:

    @mattbee1005 11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think its brave of you to post such an honest video. I can relate to a lot of the stuff you spoke about through your school years. I don't know how much it means coming from a stranger on the internet, but the coming out process is by no means an easy one and you should be proud of yourself.

  • @hchatha25
    @hchatha25 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    omg, so relieved your parents were ok with it!! I was scared for u lol! so happy youve come out - I hate that society is the reason you had to go through that inner struggle for so long.. not fair, glad u r happy now!

  • @timc9298
    @timc9298 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I found your video very moving and your experience of coming out to yourself very much resonated with my own many years ago - in particular the discovery of just how many layers of selves there are to come out to. Those layers are designed I think to be protective but, like a kind of emotional scar tissue, can prevent us from being fully sensitive to the truth of what we feel. You have bravely begun to dare to feel.

    I feel that you have gone through so much turmoil learning to cope with your sexuality that it cost you a precious part of your youth. But on the other hand that struggle build something strong inside you. Far too many gentle souls did not survive the struggle. I hope you have a wonderful life filled with love and happiness. You have earned it.

    When you first posted this video, I never would have dreamed that I would have a coming out story...but now here I am...I just started the process 2 days ago. I've told 4 friends so far...my parents? I'll figure that one out later...it's been tough. This is, by far, the hardest experience of my life. I'm emotionally wrecked to the point where I'm not eating and losing sleep...I just want it to be over.

    It seems like this go's full circle. I admire you for the same things you admire other gays for and suddenly find myself feeling better about myself being gay because I see how inspiring different gays can be. It's like a brotherhood that supports each other and we all understand the pain and trials we all go through, and that makes us stronger, prouder and happier. Your so lucky to have Grant, he has the most gentle spirit and open heart of anyone I've me here on youtube. He is special!

  • @mike35273527
    @mike35273527 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    you are so strong and intelligent and super great person. You're parents are so concerned about what others think instead of their son's feelings. Hopefully they've come around. If not, they need time to accept it for themselves but it's not their place to put their thoughts on you. They're values aren't any better than yours. You're a fantastic human being.

    very courageous!! your message of "unboxing" is important because we are not better/worse than others, it's like you said just for others to have a term for us. you are right about that no one is different & that we all should have the same value and treatement as anyone. looking forward to hear about your success in coming out. I think that you are doing a really great job with making all these funny and great videos! keep this positive attitute and never stop working on your future! regards :)

    Wow, your story is so much like mine! I remember looking at myself in the mirror when I was a senior and said "your gay". That's the first time I really accepted it. I remember the anxiety attacks and all. Life is so much better now. Your so lucky to know Grant, he is such a sweetheart! I have admired and respected him for a long time. He has the kindest and most gentle soul. I liked your story and have subbed to your channel. You seem like a very cool person!

  • @ASLGraham
    @ASLGraham 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank for sharing your story. i Agree that need to attach a label to everything( more so someones sexual orientation, race, etc) is stupid and not needed. I am in a very identical place of not accepting it in my head first, so i can start the whole "coming out" process and letting others know or being more okay if someone know even if i dont really care about the LABEL .... if you have any advice on becoming more okay with it in my head or more so the label , to move forward in my life journey i would really appretiate it.

  • @bipolarbananas
    @bipolarbananas  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    They will accept you in time. 90% of the people freaking out now will forget about it in time. Just keep your head up and know that you're strong and beautiful. I know you are. And make sure to find some REAL friends that will love and accept you for who you are. they will stick with you through the tough times. I'm always here if you want to send me a message. Just stay positive and keep breathing

    I'm a senior in high school, never really publicly "came out" but I've told some ppl. I've even told my parents (which I regret) but at this point I do not care who knows. I'd prefer for ppl not to know, but all the friends that I've told really didn't care which surprised me. If anything, they didn't want me to be flamboyant, which was fine since I am "straight-acting" anyways.
