I've been debating whether to create this thread for a while, and it eventually just felt like it had to come out of me. As people who know me might know, I've been struggling with coming out for a while, and I still haven't. Everyone's given me some good advice, but there are definitely some of my family and friends that I don't feel brave enough to talk to. Everyone in this community is so brave, it puts me in a state of awe. I honestly don't want to be treated differently because I'm a mer, and I'm just a shy person in general. So now that I'm thinking about this again, I'm getting upset at myself for being too scared to say anything. It's been forever since I brought up this topic, so I was wondering if anyone had any advice, on how I should approach this.
