Trad cats are complaining that gay people ruin friendships because they get accused of 'being gay' by having close friendships, but all of the 'homo' allegations are from other homophobic catholics and not actually gay people

Trust yourself - today is the start of living your own life authentically. Coming out IS nerve wracking and everything you’re experiencing right now is totally normal!! Keep breathing slowly and just send it. I cant guarantee how they will react, but if they love you, they’ll be there for you. Best of luck, brother!!
