Will coming out change my frienship with him?

I'm a 16 soon to be 17 year old, going into my junior year of high school. Only two people know that i'm gay my older brother and sister no one else. Well I decided to come out and i'm going to start with my best friend. My best friend and I have been best friends since like the sand box. You know how in Jennifer's body she says sand box love never dies well in are case that is true. I really want to tell him, and I'm pretty sure he will be ok with it. I'm just worried that are friendship will change, we are extremely close. We spend almost all of are time together, we sleep in the same bed when we sleep over which is more than half the week. When we watch movies at home i'll lay on his chest or he'll lay on mine and the other will have their arms wrapped around them. We hold hands when we're out, when we go to the movies he'll usually put his arm around me, he also does it when we're out eating. He also has me wear his lettermen jacket when i'm cold.



How can I come out to him and make sure that are friendship stays the same? I really don't want this to change a thing, will it?



He is like popular football god jock guy, i'm kind of popular by association but i'm very shy and artistic.Will coming out change my frienship with him?
If your friendship is as strong as it sounds, your sexual orientation (or his, for that matter) won't matter. You might want to be prepared to answer his questions, because he may have some. He may also be a little uncomfortable at first, but if you're honest and patient, you should be fine.

It may not be easy, but it will be worth it.

Good luck.
If you guys relationship is the way you say it is, then he shouldn't stop being your friend because of your sexual orientation. He'll accept you if he is truly your friend.

Wow, this also depends on how long you kept it from him. And you should also know how he react to gay men. Good luck

sounds like hes gay too and sounds like he gives you a *****
hi
Your relationship probably will change, but maybe it will change for the better. You have no way of knowing until you tell him. It's important that you be true to yourself, and honest with your closest friend. If you come out and it harms your relationship then your relationship wasn't what you thought it was. On the other hand, it certainly sounds like he's in the same boat.

Best of luck!
this happened to someone i know but these guys were only friends they wouldnt touch hands or anything but would sleep at each others house but not alone their were other friends too. so when he came out none of is friends stopped talking to him they said they knew already but it was all cool... to me it sounds like your friend is also gay by the way you write about him maybe im wrong. You should tel him whats goin on he will be your friend if he is a true friend. because true friends are with you no matter what!
honestly, i think you should ask him how he feels about yu. if you two are holding hands in public and he puts his arm around you and lets you wear his jacket then he might be gay too. if not, then just let him know that you are. if you like him, you should tell him and if you don't then tell him that yea your gay but you don't like him. but in all honesty, it sounds like you two are in the same mind set.
it kind of sounds like he has a crush on you a little.

i would say it would change a little he could either by the sounds of it come out also or he could stop doing sweet things for you for a while thinking he's leading you on. but if you guys are true friends he won't let this mess up your guys friendship. but i think no matter what it will change your relationship with him a little.
