this guy is so gorgeous to look at . I cant take my eyes off of him. WOW. so beautiful , damn . I in love , and he has a twin . theres 2 of them . mk i love u. mike
I'm sorry about your twin doing what he did. I completely understand. My friend (female) at the time told my very best guy friend that I was gay. It devastated my world, I thought I was gonna "be straight" until high school and then tell my secret to the universe, that I would never tell any of my guy friends. In the end it was good that she told him because eventually I came to tell him myself. But that breach of trust hurts...A LOT...thanks for the vid!
When the strong crushes that you have are almost all for guys, and you're guy, that's a pretty strong sign. Coming out as bisexual first before finally coming out as gay does seem to fit a pattern. 'Tis great that your best friends were all so supportive of you. As for your twin brother, I hope that you were able to work things out in time. He is still your brother. All of your advice here is good for other young people who are thinking of coming out, and I hope that those who watch this will take it to heart. Your video is going on my "Coming Out As Gay" TH-cam Playlist.
These coming out videos have helped me so much while going through a hard time in my life right now and it gives me hope to hear ur stories. Thank u for sharing :)
Hi! Your video was one of the many videos I looked at 4-5 years ago when I was trying to summon the courage to come out. Thank you for posting this. I hope you are doing well!
Thank you for telling my story :) Still struggling to find myself and come to terms with my sexuality, also waiting on my parents' approval. I'll get there one day...
I hope you’re okay alive and healthy friend! Your coming out video was a pleasure to watch I’m glad you had an awesome support by everyone and i hope your brother realized his wrongdoings and apologized! I truly wish you the best from the bottom of my heart ❤️
I concur with what many of your subs have already mentioned. The clarity of your story will resonate with many other LGBT youth who are struggling with coming out. Keep spreading your wings as you embark on many new life adventures as an out and proud gay man. Peace, love and happiness to you!
This meant so much to me. I thank you for making this video. Please make another and bring us up to date. You've touched many lives and you are good in the way you express yourself, people can relate with you very easily.
Wow, you know I really think youtube is one good tool to help people with that fear of rejection. I have heard more positive stories then the negative ones. I'm older and I wish that, when I was your age, I could have known there was so many people going thru the same thing. When Internet started we had IRC that's where I started to find friends that understood me. Internet is truly a great thing cause people like you, who I will never meet, inspire me and helps me be good with my own self and help me accept and be proud of who I am. I think I will make a video to soon, you really inspire me. Thanks kid I wish I could shake your hand!
Hey Bro, What your doing to help others is great man. Everyone in your life should be proud of the person you are because you seem to be a caring and generous dude. I hope you and your brother can work things out because family is everything. I will not bash him for his mistakes but I would like to say that even though your twins, he may be asthetically georgeous (if you are identical),but, he will never be as beautiful as you are because that comes from within. Much respect bro.
I would like to thank you for uploading this. It gave some really good advice, as well as some great anecdotes.This has helped me see that I am not alone in the coming-out process. thanks again, cutie.
A lot of times, if one twin is gay, so is the other ... maybe the reason your bro spread the news ... to create a smoke screen for himself, or just to see people's reactions to you, before he decides to come out too. God bless you for your bravery, and altruism.
I'm just so relieved for the people who found the courage to come out because I'm a seventeen-year- old guy and I really don't have the guts to do so. So yeah, I'm just so happy for you ;) Being in that state of mind must absolutely be amazing.
Awesome vid man! Thank u so much for posting! Cannot get my head around the fact that your twin brother betrayed you - he could learn so much from you - you're absolutely amazing!!! (Don't blame you for not talking to him for a year!!) Please post an update - we'd love to know how you're doing! All the best always!
I'm supporting you... To get through this stage of life may be really hard but after you admit it and be who you really are, it's gonna feel a lot more better... GOOD VIDEO :D
When he told his close friends he's gay, they hugged him and some even cried. When his twin brother found out, he went through the school telling everyone. I really can't imagine how I would ever reveal something so personal about my own brother. So where is Boarderboy 165 now? This was a very good coming out video.
Congratulations on coming-out to yourself and some of your friends! You seem like a smart, articulate, sensitive person, and by achieving self-acceptance at such a young age, you will have many happy years ahead of you! Since TH-cam is such a popular website now, I recommend sitting down to talk with your parents ASAP. They might be hurt to know you were willing to share such personal things with strangers before you were comfortable talking to them. Good luck!
You sir are extremely attractive. One thing to remember is never listen to the stupid comments people make. It just makes them look small and it also says that they are not comfortable with their sexuality. You are a beautiful work of art and do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
I knew since I was 6 that I like boys...but for me it was awful because I am older! The times were very different and Christianity was prevailing. I mean the Christian hatred!
I am sure that by now you have began your journey of self-discovery. Try not to lose yourself in the search. You are truly a precious soul and a remarkable young man. Your sexuality will always remain your own artwork, and you will find that the canvas will change with time. Don't limit yourself to preconceptions. Enjoy life and touch everyone. Let others learn to love and admire you first. Love will return from every avenue, and true love usually appears from the most unexpected sources.
You said many truth things in this video that I admire to hear. I myself am gay and I experienced similar things, and I am glad to see that you made a video to help and give great advices. I look forward to your next video!
Aww, you're a beautiful kid. I don't know you, but I'm so proud of you. : ) It's such a head start in life to know who you are and accept it with gratitude and grace. You seem to be well-on-your-way. I hope your life is wonderful. *hug*
well i dont know about you, but my family is really important to me and i think it does give me strengh to know that they accept me as i am. i know there are familys where this is not possible. i dont think there is a right way to do this. its important that you feel secure about yourself and that you are ready for anything. i must tell you that even though my coming out was really difficult for me, all the people surrounding me were so awesome. even those i thought would not accept it.
Don't be afraid to accept yourself for the way you feel.Honesty with yourself is the most important thing you can do.I love and respect you for having the courage to come out and say that. II don't think less of for that.I believe you are a wonderful person. Hope we can talk to each other.
Great video, thanks for your honesty and courage sharing something so personal on TH-cam! I am gay and just know that you can have all the same things as if you were straight, a partner/ husband, children someday if you want them, a successful career, close friends and a happy and fulfilled life as a gay man! Sometimes we face challenges as gay men, but the road to full equality is happening and you're lucky to be young, gay and proud in 2013 with your whole life ahead of you! Rock on! :)
Went through a similar situation with my brother who is a year older. I told him first to get advise. He ruined my high school life. Its been a few years and we're closer than ever. He just won't stop apologizing.
Im bi-sexual. Every now and then i watch these videos to remind my self there's nothing wrong with being gay or bi. I was bullied alot through school lost all my friends, lost my girlfriend that i actually cared about. A year later and these memories still haunt me. This video helps me alot and almost every time i watch it i cry.
I did the same thing before I came out. I told my friends and family that I was Bi before I was gay, I could also feel the awkward when you said what your dad said about college.
I am proud of people like you. Im openly bisexual, and yea, there is a lot of bs that goes around. I am a strong supporter of lgbt and people who are try-sexual. I just admire people who can come out like that. :)
My hats off to you, dude! I guess you are one of the prime examples of the "non-stereotypical" gay dude. I used to have this belief when I was younger that people were more "inclined" to be gay when they have or don't have certain qualities: usually more introverted, his "looks" are only "average to below average", or not into sports. But you don't (seem) to have those qualities - you seem extroverted, you're handsome and you play sports....
I can tell you why you might be reluctant to bring it up to your parents, even if you're fairly sure they know. For me at least, I was reluctant to tell my mom, even though I was sure she'd be accepting, because once it was acknowledged everything would change. Change is scary. I didn't know how things would change but I knew things would. Things changed, but for the better. My mom and I grew much closer and I was more comfortable talking to her about things most teens don't with parents.
that part about your dad saying partner really touched my heart man like after my dad actually found out he still kept pushing the girl's thing on me lol so that is something really special that hes willing to say anything like that
I love your transparency. Thanks for sharing your coming out story. Hope you can make more videos about your personal experiences. You will help millions of people.
You're not boring at all, so any amount of details would be just fine. Anyway your story brought back a lot of memories... I kinda experienced pretty much everything you described :-) You're a good storyteller... It might be partialy because (as pretty much everyone here already said) you're so good looking but you really seem to be a cool guy... You're gonna make someone one hell of happy boy ;-))))
It has been over two years since you posted this video. Hope you are enjoying college and that all is going well for you. You seem like a really good person. Good Luck.
its hard at first but your family will get through it. just be strong and be honest. they may not like the idea but at the end , their love for you wins.
goddamn I'd have had the worst crush ever on you in high school. It's a very big deal to come out and I congratulate you on taking that step. Hope the future finds you happy and safe. And also you are kind of beautiful.
Hey I see you are intellegent with a well thought message - we need to see more of what you are doing in your life at least every 6 months. As you know there are lots of different personalities some more grounded than others - your advice would add a lot and that is why you made the vid so make some more -you are comfortable on camera and make good sense keep it up there are lots of guys that need your input thx
I loved your video. Thank you for making it. Your step-dad needs to get a clue. That was totally inappropriate bring it up in that context. As for your brother, I don't know what motivated him to tell people (sibling rivalry?), but I hope he sees this video and realizes how hurtful his behavior was, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive him. Live long and prosper.
You are amazingly strong. I admire your courage. Remember God dosent make junk. Your honesty and strength are great gifts. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Keep on loving!
I got the same thing from my Mum on the phone! "wife... or partner, or whatever" haha. I was straight until I was 13, then started liking guys too. I came out to my group as bi (9 straight guys) and 3 female friends less than a year ago. Now I have moved away to uni (college) and am yet to come out here. I like for people to get to know me for who I am personality wise not who I am attracted to. I have mainly been attracted to guys lately but I fly around the Kinsley scale.
If you're not ready for everyone to know, don't tell anyone. It's just difficult to tell who is trustworthy these days, glad I didn't have that problem though. Once I came to terms with my sexuality, I just didn't care who found out. I think being outed before you're ready can have extremely negative effects.
Yeah, I'm an identical twin. I went through the same thing. It's not fun. Only I was 12 years old when it happened to me. Fortunately, he became more mature, grew up, and we are best friends to this day.
And that was two months ago. So im still struggling a little but I can understand why that would put a strain on our relationship. Anyway, you have a great story and I have so much love and compassion for every gay in this world. Because I truly feel that a big part of why we push on is because we know that there are people like us. We just have to find them :).
This is straight up like my coming out story, you played the "bisexual" card to test the boundaries. I feel ya. Haha, I'm glad you figured it out as I did. Things are awesome to be gay. I love having girl friends, but guys are so much better. Ps, you're a pretty attractive guy :)
It's always so great and inspirational to see people who truly accept who they are. I always believe it's the time in life that you feel completed. That's how I feel when I did the same thing. Have a great time in college. Best wishes from Hong Kong. Good Luck.
Thank you for trying to help those that aren't out yet. As far as your brother, that seems like something he did because he didn't like the fact you were gay. I think the issue was more on him because he was your twin. I am sure he was scared to death that he might be gay as well. I think that was his way of compensating. And dude, your dad knows. He is a little uncomfortable but cool with it. Open that door of communication.
good for you man, great to hear things are going well for you, not everyone can say the same thing, so consider yourself lucky... and much luck to you down the road as you continue your life :)
"Open for me slightly your heart and I will open the world for you" the Zohar. Nice sharing. Stay honest with yourself and all falsehood around you will fade. Peace.
Wow, you are really cute...and apparently my age. This year is my first year of college and I went through a similar thing. I tried to come out to my parents, but they're hardcore religious conservatives and would have stopped funding my schooling if I hadn't said that I was "confused" (which is bullcrap). However, I'm on a sports team here and I came out to some of my teammates and they have been really supportive. Anyways, thanks for uploading, bro! :)
It takes a lot of courage to come out. Good for you, that you did. I told a few friends of mine as well. It took me a while to finally tell people (I'm 22). And yes, I know what u mean when u say ppl talk. I'm pretty sure they do around me as well. Unfortuantely, we can't shut ppl up. Anyways, I was just wondering what your current situation is? Would love for you to do an updated video. Good luck with everything in your life :)
I liked your story and the way you told it. Thanks for that. I'm quite a bit older than you, and so I came out much later (sign of the times/generations). I subscribed! Write more about your life and how you navigate this issue. Many people need to hear it.
Congrats, this was an excellent 1st video. Keep positive, forgiveness is always a good virtue to have too! I'm glad your family basically is all good too, your dad sounds cool. I look forward to more of your videos. Scott
Thanks a lot for sharing. You have handled your self in sharing and dealing with friends. I am glad you are getting with your twin. If you handle the rest of your life as well as you did your coming out you will be a well respected successful man
Great video! I'm also going into college this coming fall and I haven't told my parents yet. All my siblings know but I don't know about my parents. You're dad will probably be fine with it if he's dropping hints like that. My brother drops hints and I know he knows. Good luck with everything handsome! :)
I was like you about looking on TH-cam for advice and watching your video has inspired me to make a coming out video as well, sort of to give back, to help other people with their coming out.
Hi perfect video this is really helpful (actually I'm directing a documentary about this process). I'm from france and I met a lot of gays and lesbians all around the world, I noticed that wherever we are from, we all have similar stories. Keep being truthful with yourself we can see in your eyes and with your smile that it is the most important thing. Thank you (sorry if I made any mistake in my english)
You're gorgeous and I love the fact that you're trying to help other LBGT youngsters through what is THE HARDEST thing to do, but dude, your parents birthed you, you should tell them, #1: closest friends #2: your parents (unless they're terrible homophobic) and still, a strong home base makes it easier to tell the world...
Heartbreaker. I know you have left many broken hearts in your wake. You are extremely handsome. I'm sure you haven't had any trouble attracting guys. Take care.
Thanks for sharing - good ideas on navigating the coming out process ... who to tell when if at all. Went through similar process starting 45 years ago, and it still continues. Luckily friends and family have been almost totally supportive - usually I didn't tell anyone until they knew me well so they could evaluate me on more than just "gay." :-)

you posted this 2011!! where are you now? are you still alive? are you doing okay? bro you gatta update us :(
He's alive! I think he's doing fine guys,you can check out his social media accounts: Dustin Michael Stollings.
Wow do you have his permission to post his name here?
That’s kinda like outting him to the whole world.
@@richardackley1823 Bro what
Would love to see an update. You are a kind, interesting, smart, handsome young man, and "You're braver than you believe".
"braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think" we love winnie the pooh haha
I'm bi and when I came out to my mom she came out to me too! Honesty is beautiful!
Wow he's so pretty, I would like to know what happened to him, someone know his name or something abt his life now?
this guy is so gorgeous to look at . I cant take my eyes off of him. WOW. so beautiful , damn . I in love , and he has a twin . theres 2 of them . mk i love u. mike
Even 9 years after you posting this, your story still has power. Very happy for you! 😁🎶
I'm sorry about your twin doing what he did. I completely understand. My friend (female) at the time told my very best guy friend that I was gay. It devastated my world, I thought I was gonna "be straight" until high school and then tell my secret to the universe, that I would never tell any of my guy friends.

Hi! Your video was one of the many videos I looked at 4-5 years ago when I was trying to summon the courage to come out. Thank you for posting this. I hope you are doing well!
Thank you for telling my story :)
Still struggling to find myself and come to terms with my sexuality, also waiting on my parents' approval. I'll get there one day...
I hope you’re okay alive and healthy friend! Your coming out video was a pleasure to watch I’m glad you had an awesome support by everyone and i hope your brother realized his wrongdoings and apologized! I truly wish you the best from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Your brother is a real shit head for doing that. Your twin brother of all people.
Nice story by the way.
This meant so much to me. I thank you for making this video. Please make another and bring us up to date. You've touched many lives and you are good in the way you express yourself, people can relate with you very easily.
Would be good to have a life update.
Wow, you know I really think youtube is one good tool to help people with that fear of rejection. I have heard more positive stories then the negative ones.

Thanks for sharing your story.
You are really cute btw. (:
Hey Bro,
What your doing to help others is great man. Everyone in your life should be proud of the person you are because you seem to be a caring and generous dude. I hope you and your brother can work things out because family is everything. I will not bash him for his mistakes but I would like to say that even though your twins, he may be asthetically georgeous (if you are identical),but, he will never be as beautiful as you are because that comes from within.

You are so cool and brave for coming out. And u are super cute and sweet person and seem like a great personality
I'm just so relieved for the people who found the courage to come out because I'm a seventeen-year- old guy and I really don't have the guts to do so. So yeah, I'm just so happy for you ;) Being in that state of mind must absolutely be amazing.
Why don't you post more videos? We're curious! Do you live in a relationship?
Awesome vid man! Thank u so much for posting! Cannot get my head around the fact that your twin brother betrayed you - he could learn so much from you - you're absolutely amazing!!! (Don't blame you for not talking to him for a year!!) Please post an update - we'd love to know how you're doing! All the best always!
and you're such a cutie omfg
cruz loredo omfg stfu!
I'm supporting you... To get through this stage of life may be really hard but after you admit it and be who you really are, it's gonna feel a lot more better... GOOD VIDEO :D
When he told his close friends he's gay, they hugged him and some even cried. When his twin brother found out, he went through the school telling everyone. I really can't imagine how I would ever reveal something so personal about my own brother. So where is Boarderboy 165 now? This was a very good coming out video.
Especially your twin. I would have thought they were super lose. I guess Soap Operas were right.
Congratulations on coming-out to yourself and some of your friends! You seem like a smart, articulate, sensitive person, and by achieving self-acceptance at such a young age, you will have many happy years ahead of you! Since TH-cam is such a popular website now, I recommend sitting down to talk with your parents ASAP. They might be hurt to know you were willing to share such personal things with strangers before you were comfortable talking to them. Good luck!
I'm gay too and I come out in the 1990's it was so challenging back then. You got it I wish you the very best
You sir are extremely attractive. One thing to remember is never listen to the stupid comments people make. It just makes them look small and it also says that they are not comfortable with their sexuality. You are a beautiful work of art and do not let anyone tell you otherwise.
You're adorable. Bet you're even better looking now.
Would really be nice to get an update, and you did not bore me or the thousands of others who’ve watched you.
great vid. more power to the gays.
thx for the +1
Brave, honest, good for you!
Awesome video, you can tell your happy, and that makes me happy! :)
I posted my story as well :) Awesome channel!
How can I watch it man?
I knew since I was 6 that I like boys...but for me it was awful because I am older! The times were very different and Christianity was prevailing. I mean the Christian hatred!
Sadly, there's still a lot of "Christian" hatred.
I am sure that by now you have began your journey of self-discovery. Try not to lose yourself in the search. You are truly a precious soul and a remarkable young man. Your sexuality will always remain your own artwork, and you will find that the canvas will change with time. Don't limit yourself to preconceptions. Enjoy life and touch everyone.

Damn you need to make more videos though :)
I recently came out to my dad. It's so nice to finally not have to hide it anymore. Keeping something like this locked up is so hard.
youre so cute
well i dont know about you, but my family is really important to me and i think it does give me strengh to know that they accept me as i am. i know there are familys where this is not possible. i dont think there is a right way to do this. its important that you feel secure about yourself and that you are ready for anything. i must tell you that even though my coming out was really difficult for me, all the people surrounding me were so awesome. even those i thought would not accept it.
i like your face!
Don't be afraid to accept yourself for the way you feel.Honesty with yourself is the most important thing you can do.I love and respect you for having the courage to come out and say that. II don't think less of for that.I believe you are a wonderful person. Hope we can talk to each other.
lol yes your dad knows

people calm down, this is not a hook-up site. Good for you. It's short to say that the experience was liberating! Enjoy life
I did the same thing before I came out. I told my friends and family that I was Bi before I was gay, I could also feel the awkward when you said what your dad said about college.
I am proud of people like you. Im openly bisexual, and yea, there is a lot of bs that goes around. I am a strong supporter of lgbt and people who are try-sexual. I just admire people who can come out like that. :)

great story. And yes..you do help people with telling it. a 6 yrs later update would be nice to hear. :)
goddamn I'd have had the worst crush ever on you in high school. It's a very big deal to come out and I congratulate you on taking that step. Hope the future finds you happy and safe. And also you are kind of beautiful.
Hey I see you are intellegent with a well thought message - we need to see more of what you are doing in your life at least every 6 months. As you know there are lots of different personalities some more grounded than others - your advice would add a lot and that is why you made the vid so make some more -you are comfortable on camera and make good sense keep it up there are lots of guys that need your input thx
I loved your video. Thank you for making it. Your step-dad needs to get a clue. That was totally inappropriate bring it up in that context. As for your brother, I don't know what motivated him to tell people (sibling rivalry?), but I hope he sees this video and realizes how hurtful his behavior was, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive him. Live long and prosper.
You are amazingly strong. I admire your courage. Remember God dosent make junk. Your honesty and strength are great gifts. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. Keep on loving!
I came out my freshman year.That was in 1976.You should be proud of what you did and who you are
I got the same thing from my Mum on the phone! "wife... or partner, or whatever" haha.
I was straight until I was 13, then started liking guys too. I came out to my group as bi (9 straight guys) and 3 female friends less than a year ago. Now I have moved away to uni (college) and am yet to come out here. I like for people to get to know me for who I am personality wise not who I am attracted to. I have mainly been attracted to guys lately but I fly around the Kinsley scale.
Cute guy, nice voice. Best of luck to you Dustin.
Hope you reconcile with your twin. He shouldn’t have done that to you.
It. Gets. Better. Congrats and I hope you keep your best foot forth no matter what you do or encounter throughout life.
If you're not ready for everyone to know, don't tell anyone. It's just difficult to tell who is trustworthy these days, glad I didn't have that problem though. Once I came to terms with my sexuality, I just didn't care who found out. I think being outed before you're ready can have extremely negative effects.
Yeah, I'm an identical twin. I went through the same thing. It's not fun. Only I was 12 years old when it happened to me. Fortunately, he became more mature, grew up, and we are best friends to this day.
And that was two months ago. So im still struggling a little but I can understand why that would put a strain on our relationship. Anyway, you have a great story and I have so much love and compassion for every gay in this world. Because I truly feel that a big part of why we push on is because we know that there are people like us. We just have to find them :).
This is straight up like my coming out story, you played the "bisexual" card to test the boundaries. I feel ya. Haha, I'm glad you figured it out as I did. Things are awesome to be gay. I love having girl friends, but guys are so much better.
Ps, you're a pretty attractive guy :)
It's always so great and inspirational to see people who truly accept who they are. I always believe it's the time in life that you feel completed. That's how I feel when I did the same thing. Have a great time in college. Best wishes from Hong Kong. Good Luck.
Thank you for trying to help those that aren't out yet. As far as your brother, that seems like something he did because he didn't like the fact you were gay. I think the issue was more on him because he was your twin. I am sure he was scared to death that he might be gay as well. I think that was his way of compensating. And dude, your dad knows. He is a little uncomfortable but cool with it. Open that door of communication.
good for you man, great to hear things are going well for you, not everyone can say the same thing, so consider yourself lucky... and much luck to you down the road as you continue your life :)

Nice sharing. Stay honest with yourself and all falsehood around you will fade.
Peace.
Wow, you are really cute...and apparently my age. This year is my first year of college and I went through a similar thing. I tried to come out to my parents, but they're hardcore religious conservatives and would have stopped funding my schooling if I hadn't said that I was "confused" (which is bullcrap). However, I'm on a sports team here and I came out to some of my teammates and they have been really supportive. Anyways, thanks for uploading, bro! :)
It takes a lot of courage to come out. Good for you, that you did. I told a few friends of mine as well. It took me a while to finally tell people (I'm 22). And yes, I know what u mean when u say ppl talk. I'm pretty sure they do around me as well. Unfortuantely, we can't shut ppl up.
Anyways, I was just wondering what your current situation is? Would love for you to do an updated video. Good luck with everything in your life :)
I liked your story and the way you told it. Thanks for that. I'm quite a bit older than you, and so I came out much later (sign of the times/generations). I subscribed! Write more about your life and how you navigate this issue. Many people need to hear it.
You're so confident and hot! A real inspiration to other gays facing an uncertain future,.
Please give us an update, we really care about you!!!
Thank you for your story, and remember we care about you and consider you an inspiration for all of us. Thank you.
Congrats, this was an excellent 1st video. Keep positive, forgiveness is always a good virtue to have too! I'm glad your family basically is all good too, your dad sounds cool. I look forward to more of your videos.

Thanks a lot for sharing. You have handled your self in sharing and dealing with friends. I am glad you are getting with your twin. If you handle the rest of your life as well as you did your coming out you will be a well respected successful man
Great video! I'm also going into college this coming fall and I haven't told my parents yet. All my siblings know but I don't know about my parents. You're dad will probably be fine with it if he's dropping hints like that. My brother drops hints and I know he knows. Good luck with everything handsome! :)
I was like you about looking on TH-cam for advice and watching your video has inspired me to make a coming out video as well, sort of to give back, to help other people with their coming out.
Hi perfect video this is really helpful (actually I'm directing a documentary about this process). I'm from france and I met a lot of gays and lesbians all around the world, I noticed that wherever we are from, we all have similar stories. Keep being truthful with yourself we can see in your eyes and with your smile that it is the most important thing.
Thank you
(sorry if I made any mistake in my english)
You're gorgeous and I love the fact that you're trying to help other LBGT youngsters through what is THE HARDEST thing to do, but dude, your parents birthed you, you should tell them, #1: closest friends #2: your parents (unless they're terrible homophobic) and still, a strong home base makes it easier to tell the world...
Heartbreaker. I know you have left many broken hearts in your wake. You are extremely handsome. I'm sure you haven't had any trouble attracting guys. Take care.
Thanks for sharing - good ideas on navigating the coming out process ... who to tell when if at all. Went through similar process starting 45 years ago, and it still continues. Luckily friends and family have been almost totally supportive - usually I didn't tell anyone until they knew me well so they could evaluate me on more than just "gay." :-)
