      (open to reconsideration) I think Mickey's coming out was more because of the pressure put by Ian, and even though he knew the way Terry was he still put an ultimatum with Mick. Still, I think it's a powerful scene and maybe, just maybe, it was the only way for Mickey to get the courage to do so.

    I asked my best friend if I was gay what she would think. She said we would no longer be friends. After that I didn’t want to come out. After 3 years In my freshman year of college I came out to my parents and they were more understanding. I felt so blessed to be loved by my family. It’s like finding a diamond in a dark mine.

    Love Simon is my all time favorite movie ever. It hit a lot of good points and hit all the parts of coming out and dealing with hiding your sexuality amazingly.

    Having my eyesight for 19 years, I stayed closeted. I lost most of my eyesight 2 years ago and, I decided to come out. I couldn't see their facial reaction. But, the atmosphere feels different. I saw Andi Mac and Love, Simon only. I love those so much. I would like to hear a film do a coming out story with a blind or visually impared main character. My attraction toward guys got stronger after losing my eyesight. Its a overfillment of love and bliss. But, more difficult to find a date and to trust someone. I love this video

And I wish we could all have that, not needing to come out and just be able to bring anyone home without ppl still finding it different.

    + I also like men, but for some reason i don't really feel like dating them...? Even though i can find men attractive?? Don't really know how to explain the men part but basically im happy if a man is attracted to me and i may be attracted back but im not comitted to a relationship??
    I THINK that my parents are NOT supportive of the lgbtq+ community because they look kinda disapproved when they see a gay couple so i don't know how to tell them that i can be attracted to females.

    I regard _Love, Simon_ as the very best of really bad gay movies. Not once was I convinced that 'Simon' was gay. And the story was like a tornado of trying to be clever about who 'Blue' was --- bad in every direction.
    It was obvious that the production was only trying to get a good looking young man to be "gay" just for the box office receipts. The best part of this movie? *The **_Love, Victor_** TV spinoff.*
    Luckily, _Love, Victor_ was a pretty good "spinoff" of the movie. *'Victor' was 100% more believable as gay than 'Simon' could have ever been.*
    And that's really sad, too. Because Nick told us his younger brother came out as gay while he was making _Love, Simon._ One would think a loving brother would do his *younger, gay brother proud.*

    Love Simon coming out scene was the worst coming out scene in a movie , in my opinion. He blurted out, she didn’t say anything. Nothing. No reassurance words, nothing. No hug. When he asked her a couple of clumsy questions her answers are monosyllabic. She was very cold.

    I'm gay myself so believe me when I say that apart from the Shameless scene, the " coming out " of the rest was pretty uneventful as it was so obvious they were gay

    So many great ones, but I feel like perhaps u forgot the final coming out scene in "Love Simon" on the ferris wheel. also not directly to friend though friend were present Or the the coming out in love Victor when he comes out to his family in the end of the first season.
