That's it.

I'm actually kind of glad. My experience with friends coming out led them to over compensate and act like total asses. I don't think I need to tell you that you shouldn't feel like you need to act a certain way for people to get your sexual preferences. To be honest, sexual preference doesn't mean a thing, people just make out to be big. College is usually a better place in terms of more open minded people, I still feel just as miserable here though.
