This is seriously the best. I love how you are not afraid to be yourself and come out and that's a strong characteristic many people wish for! you should be proud and happy of who you are and not let anybody ruin your life or mood. You are who you are. and people will love you for the true you!
I liked how you started out with "boundaries don't exist", It surprised me to hear that you- someone acts and appears so strong- have been having an inner battle with yourself since the SIXTH GRADE! The Hannah Montana reference was amazing, your smiles you get when you started talking about finally getting in a relationship made me smile along with you, that rollercoaster you had with your parents sounds truly saddening, but I'm glad you're strong enough to go through it! Never stop smiling! :)
This is one of the best coming out videos I have ever seen. You're smart, thoughtful, and eloquent and you're describing your inner thoughts so detailed and precisely. For these reasons this video is definitely going to help many young people who are in a similar situation. I watched this video several times because I like it so much ... and your personality.
This is the whole reason I subscribed to you! This is like my all time favorite and helpful video on UA-cam! Thank you so much for your stories and being so open!
Hey, I used to watch you're videos all the time, but then I disappeared from youtube for a year and now that I'm back, I started watching them again. I really enjoy you're videos and I'm happy that you are comfortable with who you are after all that struggling. Stay strong dude :)
I agree 100% with the labels stuff at the beginning. Part of my whole acceptance struggle was trying to find a label that fit what I was feeling. Turns out, the labels are for OTHER ppl to classify you. They aren't for you to classify yourself. I like guys and girls, both to different degrees, but I wouldn't call myself bisexual. Others will call me that, I'm just being me.
You should be so proud of yourself Matt. It takes a lot to come out, but in the end it's one of the best things you can do to no longer censor yourself in any way.
But I'm so glad that I can call myself your friend, and I'm so happy that I could be a part of your coming out in any way. :)
I stopped this video within the first 2 min just to say wow, your impressive and very articulate!
This is really inspiring, glad to hear you're coming out story!
Oh when you started talking I was like, god the same exact thing happened to me, I was the same about not accepting it and not even acknowledging it. I think I am gonna make a video about my coming out story some day. You are so cute, I am glad things ended up fine with you! xx
Watching this video reminded me of so many steps I had forgotten in my own coming out story. Nicely put... and very thorough! :D
Matt!! 3 so proud of you!
Thank you for your story. I grew up in a small town in Idaho, and by the time I realized what I was, I literally thought I was the only gay in the state. It took every ounce of mental ability I had to watch myself to make sure I didn't act or talk gay. The burden of being on constant guard against my own nature was crushing. Please make an up-date, and finally re-post that live coming out video
You know I'm proud of you and all that good ish. The video was super intriguing and I feel like your story in middle and high school will be able to correlate with other people and the world and everyone's just going to love this and I'm so proud of you, again. I just think you're awesauce and I know you know xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxox
What a great story Matt! I've watched it before but thought I'd check it out again. I don't want to sound stalkerish, but this video makes me love you so much! You are amazing and for some reason everytime I watch your videos it makes me really happy! You are so smart and your thoughts are so well organized I get something from you everytime I watch your videos. Thanks for posting these they always have something that helps me in my everyday life. Your the best!
I'm glad you're getting the encouragement from your friends. Hopefully, your parents will wake up eventually. It just sounds like they're having a tough time coming to grips with your news. :)
Dude your videos are just amazing hope to watch more
I'm so happy + proud of you :) and I'm glad you could relate!
heyy matt. just wanted to say i loved the video. you are like the cutest ever :D. good luck in your studies.
hey there matt ! enjoyed your CO video best of luck for the future x
omg, so relieved your parents were ok with it!! I was scared for u lol! so happy youve come out - I hate that society is the reason you had to go through that inner struggle for so long.. not fair, glad u r happy now!
I love reading your comments,your so sassy it makes my day
Great video Matt! :) Thanks for sharing your story.
Dear, Matt Thank You for sharing your story. May God Bless you in all you do. Peace
Thank you for sharing your coming out story.You're the best!!!
Love you Matt!
Update on how things going?
So inspirational! Wish I had enough courage to do it. Thanks for posting this.
That is a great video! I think it is very inspiring and I think it will help a lot of guys out there. I was very nervous when I made my own coming out video. Anyways, I subscribed and I wish u all the best!
Love you, Matt!
I think its brave of you to post such an honest video. I can relate to a lot of the stuff you spoke about through your school years. I don't know how much it means coming from a stranger on the internet, but the coming out process is by no means an easy one and you should be proud of yourself.
well done dude you explained your coming out perfectly! one of the better stories you know yourself well.
I'm a senior in high school, never really publicly "came out" but I've told some ppl. I've even told my parents (which I regret) but at this point I do not care who knows. I'd prefer for ppl not to know, but all the friends that I've told really didn't care which surprised me. If anything, they didn't want me to be flamboyant, which was fine since I am "straight-acting" anyways.
ajb2306 did you really hate your parents
I feel that you have gone through so much turmoil learning to cope with your sexuality that it cost you a precious part of your youth. But on the other hand that struggle build something strong inside you. Far too many gentle souls did not survive the struggle. I hope you have a wonderful life filled with love and happiness. You have earned it.
Thanks for the great video. What's been going on for the last 3 years?
Thank for sharing your story. i Agree that need to attach a label to everything( more so someones sexual orientation, race, etc) is stupid and not needed. I am in a very identical place of not accepting it in my head first, so i can start the whole "coming out" process and letting others know or being more okay if someone know even if i dont really care about the LABEL .... if you have any advice on becoming more okay with it in my head or more so the label , to move forward in my life journey i would really appretiate it.
I just found your UA-cam and I've already fallen in love with you. You are amazing and truly inspirational.
aww i got mentioned! Great video Matt, proud of you!
awe! I'm so happy to hear that! thank you for being brave :)
this video is amazing im literalyy crying because its so heartfelt and i just love it i wish u could come to my school
you are kewl. you will be alright. love yourself. you are worth of love. love you !
THANK YOU for telling your story. you have help me
I'm so proud of you! Glad we are friends! I'm here for you whenever you need me! :)
loved watching this, learned so much about ya :)
You go glen coco! Seriously tho, this is inspiring I think. I hope people will look up to you for this. You're an amazing person. I've been watching your UA-cam videos for so long now. And I've met you once actually lol. But this video is amazing. I don't even know what else to say besides that. Just wow c:
Amazing story Matt. Respect. You will be an inspiration to many, both straight and LGBT.
I'm so so so proud of you :)
great video... thanks for sharing! i hope you put your parent video back up, i missed it.
I've always loved you and your videos and stuff and this video has only made me respect you more. I just want to say I'm so proud if you and don't ever believe you don't deserve love and support. :)
Words cannot describe how awesome you are..I love you Matt, you're like a mystical creature just spreading joy
When you first posted this video, I never would have dreamed that I would have a coming out story...but now here I am...I just started the process 2 days ago. I've told 4 friends so far...my parents? I'll figure that one out later...it's been tough. This is, by far, the hardest experience of my life. I'm emotionally wrecked to the point where I'm not eating and losing sleep...I just want it to be over.
you are awesome
this is amazing...I came out last march and i watched this video and i was inspired to tell my parents, they didn't know and now they don't care. just wanted to say thank you x
I have to say you're very well spoken a pleasure to listen to coming out for me was different sometime a little older but I never really had any issues with it! I can listen to you speak forever :)
You are an absolute delight to listen to. Your wisdom and intelligence is outstanding for such a young guy. You are so very and interesting... you kept me captivated. I'm 59 btw... and I've listened to a lot of people in my life but none as articulate as you. I wish you nothing but success in your journey in life.
You have a very happy nature.
I am glad for you!
Be always happy!
I found your video very moving and your experience of coming out to yourself very much resonated with my own many years ago - in particular the discovery of just how many layers of selves there are to come out to. Those layers are designed I think to be protective but, like a kind of emotional scar tissue, can prevent us from being fully sensitive to the truth of what we feel. You have bravely begun to dare to feel.
I was inspired to create my own coming out story on my channel after watching this video, thank you so much for this! xo
Matt, I'll love you forever and always, baby. Never change. :3
ur so great! society sucks but with more people like you in the world, it rly could become a better place. thanks for sharing your story with us! its meant alot. THANK Y0U!
Fantastic coming out video. I can soooooo relate to the early part of ur video.
It seems like this go's full circle. I admire you for the same things you admire other gays for and suddenly find myself feeling better about myself being gay because I see how inspiring different gays can be. It's like a brotherhood that supports each other and we all understand the pain and trials we all go through, and that makes us stronger, prouder and happier. Your so lucky to have Grant, he has the most gentle spirit and open heart of anyone I've me here on youtube. He is special!
They will accept you in time. 90% of the people freaking out now will forget about it in time. Just keep your head up and know that you're strong and beautiful. I know you are. And make sure to find some REAL friends that will love and accept you for who you are. they will stick with you through the tough times. I'm always here if you want to send me a message. Just stay positive and keep breathing
Glad you posted this video! Feel proud to be gay and feel happy that you posted your video! Tell straight to your parents that you feel gay and there is no reason to hate you because you posted this without telling them!
Wish you all the very best in your life being in a relationship with someone that deserve you as the best because you are an awesome person!
Awesome story! And thank you for sharing it!! :)
I stand corrected! thank you for the link - very informative, i enjoyed reading that!
You have something to be proud of :) Great job Matt. You truly are so brave and inspirational!
Dude, you are so cool...thanks for your share.
Proud of you, Matt!
Sweet man love and hugs.You will help people
Matt, I am proud of U, be what you are...
Hi there! Thanks for the comment. I'd just like to know where you learned that word and why you think it's ok to spread it, and say it. I'm really curious.
Hi Matt, I’m 64 years old. I have degrees from 3 different university’s and at this point I was surprised about how little I learned about life. If you feel you need to label yourself, then use the term Pansexual . When you love someone, you love their soul. When you love their bodies, that’s just lust. Education will never replace life experience. Love who you love. That’s the only thing that’s important. I myself fell in love with a so called straight man and we stayed together for 26 years until he passed away. It’s time parents start raising their kids right.
Matt
your story is so similar to my own, thanks for sharing
~thumbs up~ Welcome to the family! thank you for sharing your coming out story and the struggles to accept yourself, also you are very cute!
that was really selfish of your parents that they made your coming out experience about themselves. thank you for being vulnerable with us ❤
Matt I love you so much, and I look up to you so much. I am so incredibly proud of you and I JUST WANNA HUG YOUUU
You should do an update.
you are so strong and intelligent and super great person. You're parents are so concerned about what others think instead of their son's feelings. Hopefully they've come around. If not, they need time to accept it for themselves but it's not their place to put their thoughts on you. They're values aren't any better than yours. You're a fantastic human being.
I respect you so much for this video
I agree with Luc.
You are such a sweetheart!!
Great story bud . We all have to face it sometime, but just remember; It is great to dream and look ahead than to look back and regret.
You're amazing and I freaking love you!3
Thank you, for this inspirational video.
CONGRATS! That's an amazing and surprisingly entertaining story haha :)
This is a really good expression .... we appreciate it thank you
thank you
Hello Matt my name is Albert Dodson writing you about how to come out to my friends and family please help me come out
I'm 15 and i came out to both my parents just two weeks ago and it was really easy to relate to almost everything you said :)
Thanks, heart felt and real!
Don't know if I'm just seeing things... but is that eyeliner?
you're amazing :) so bravee!
OOPS.......I said Grant and Matt's vlog of the party. while I ment to say Grant and Brad's vlogs of the party.
very courageous!! your message of "unboxing" is important because we are not better/worse than others, it's like you said just for others to have a term for us. you are right about that no one is different & that we all should have the same value and treatement as anyone. looking forward to hear about your success in coming out. I think that you are doing a really great job with making all these funny and great videos! keep this positive attitute and never stop working on your future! regards :)
Good luck would great if u did an update . all the best wishers in life :)
Thank you for your comment. It's not something I worry about TBH (my parents). Being gay wasn't my choice but I am blessed in a way as it lets you see the world from all points of view. We know what it's like being the underdog and I kinda always feel for the underdog in any situation in life and I can look at something from all sides. It's one of the few plus's on being gay. Given the choice at birth I would have picked straight but I just get on with it in my own quiet way.
By the way what's your url? I wanna follow you(:
awe :( i'm so sorry. i really hope they can accept you someday!
Thank you for accepting my apology. Again, I had no right.
your a beautiful individual . your very brave. and honestly watching your video makes me feel better about being who i am. your going to change peoples lives ! fuck these haters.
