Every single person that I used to consider a friend, has abandoned me ever since I came out of the closest.

Throwaway, since my connections with people are dead, I'll just write this right here before I delete it.<br><br>I was in the closest for most of my life. I had a few hook ups back in high school, but no one knew, besides the guys I hooked up with, and they have all moved away. I was living with my parents for most of college, and I knew that they would flip, so I was closeted there too.<br><br>This past year, I moved into an apartment. I liked having the freedom of doing whatever the hell I wanted to do, without someone breathing down my neck, and judging me for it.<br><br>So I used that freedom to explore my homosexuality more, and I felt amazing. I was finally happy after hiding for so long.<br><br>I decided it was finally time to come out, since I was living on my own. I posted on social media, texted my friends, and I called my parents to let them know.<br><br>I was expecting my parents to be mad, but I didn't expect them to completely abandon me, but that's what they did. They told me they wanted nothing to do with me, and they couldn't look at me. I cried for a week after that.<br><br>As for my friends, some have stuck with me, but a lot have not. A good 70% of them have completely ghosted me, giving me no reason as to why. The friends that did stick with me have been great, and I don't know what I would do without them. I can't wait to get my money up, and move the fuck away from this shithole, and never come back.<br><br>But holy shit, I never expected things to take this bad of a turn. More than half of my friends that I've known for years have abandoned me, with no explanation as to why.<br><br>Fuck you straight people. Fuck you all.
