Woot, yay for Steve and Shelly and possible third person! Some of my closest friends in high school were gay, one of them was leaning toward being bisexual, tons of people in music and the liberal arts (who I also know and/or are friends with) are gay, so knowing that a few more of my friends are gay isn't a big deal at all, and it's great that you've decided to come out. In fact, since I am around gay people so much of the time, I've definitely thought about whether I was many times. For now, I think I am straight because I still love the boobies but it is possible that will change later on. And as Shelly knows, there are always exceptions to the rule.
