hey, congratulations, my best friend is a hebephile, I'm a pedophile so we basically had to feel each other out and figure out what the other was ok with. I came out first but only after some heavy hinting from him. it's still somewhat awkward for me after years of pretending to be into women but it's nice to be able to talk to someone in person and get literally no negative feedback. we share the same moral beliefs about whats acceptable behavior and what isn't as well so there isn't even the issue of feeling like one of us might cross a line in some way.
I came out to my other really close friends and my mom too, it's really a relief to feel like I'm not as hated as I thought I was. it really sucks feeling like people like you but only because they don't know everything about you.
but still I will say this and with great emphasis. be DAMN careful who you come out to. that feeling of acceptance is not worth the risks involved, if you don't trust a person 100% then don't do it. there are 5 people in my life that know my secret and 1 is an ex girlfriend and I'm damn lucky she's not a vindictive bitch.
