The closet has opened

I just came out as plural to a friend of mine that I wanted to be closer friends with.

He was awesome about it.

Our hands are shaking so hard now.

Congratulations on being able to open up to a good friend, and have him continue to be a good friend. Sounds like a good day to us :)

I'm glad to hear it went well.

Did they ever meet any of your bodymates (presumably unknowingly)?

[vinik.livejournal.com]

Well, there are about 6 of us who co-front, so he's met a few of us without knowing. As for the rest, they keep in hiding as they usually have in public.

That's lovely. How did you tell him -- what words did you use?

[vinik.livejournal.com]

Well, we had heard that he was a good person to tell because he'd watched a program on tv featuring the subject. When he was asked by a friend of mine what he thought of it, and what he'd think if he knew someone who was multiple, he reacted positively.

So, we started with: "Do you remember a while back when you were watching this tv show about a woman with 'multiple personalities' with ____?" Then I refreshed his memory about he conversation I'd heard and said "Well, you know someone."

'lol'

He saw something on TV and reacted positively? What was the show?

[vinik.livejournal.com]

I don't know. I'll ask my 2 friends who watched it. They both have horrible memories so I'm hoping at least one of them will remember. :p
