Coming out was hard for me, hailing from a joint family where you've this certain decorum so going there in front of the entire family with all that hoo ha it was tough. I prepared myself for anything, I actually had my bags packed, money in account and basically everything, planned for the worst. One fine morning as the family was having breakfast, I broke the news, it wasn't taken well and my family kinda disowned me, yeah that's how dramatic it was. Fast forward, I'm glad I had things planned way ahead, today I'm leading a happy, carefree life with the love of my life. Did my family contact me? Yeah but were they willing to accept? No. So all you out there it's easy for some and hard for some just be sure to have a plan B just in case.

Well done mate! This is called a proper coming out I would say! You prepared yourself for the worst and when the worst happened you had the plan B - I love this. Yes you are right we all should surely have a plan B ready if we are planning to come out!

Well drama is all that family gives you when you tell them you are gay, some calm down and think straight for what is best for the family, or some just accept it like I had asked for a candy and give no reaction at all! So yes you are absolutely right in any case we should have a plan B ready.

Oh that is just so important like having a plan B - when I came out I had no plan at all I just went straight ahead and told everyone I'm gay and thankfully everyone in the family accepted it as it was, no drama no nothing - if they would have not I would have been a beggar by now being thrown out on the streets! Good work dude!

Hey so sorry to hear that they didn't accept you as you are and disowned you- glad you had a plan B - this is just so sad that it is very easy for the family to disown their kids like that. As if they were waiting for something to come up so they could disown us! This is absurd.

I have always thought of ways I would go and tell my people that I'm Gay but I could never make myself do it because I love my family so much and I know I wouldn't be able to survive knowing they hate me, so I could never just do it and I can't change being gay too but now I think I should work out a plan B and come out because they are thinking I should get married now and I can't ruin someone else's life like that!
