- Kory is so inspirational to me. He came out in a situation where everything and everyone told him he shouldn't. Coming out isn't always easy... but there IS a light at the end of the tunnel and there WILL be people who will love and support you

“There are people to this day who will not talk to me who called me their brother.” That broke my heart.
omg i know, sobbing
Tara Daviie ikr I’m not even out only to my bffs not even my PARENTS but they are kinda catching on 💖💜💙
Tara Daviie Ikr
@kim burley how is it tragic? it's just biology it's hardwired in their brains it can't be tragic if they can't do anything about it.
@kim burley why? its a normal thing it's not like it's bad
I kinda feel like Colleen saved kory from going down a dark path
100%
SAME like suicide could have happened w out colleen
I wonder if Colleen would have got with Kory if he asked her out in that way and didn't come out to her.
Ikr
Cory is his own person
Who else rlly just wanted to just give him a big hug when he started crying
Mee
Meeeeeeeeeeee all the way.
I just want to say that I completely understand why it was so hard for Joey to be a i Eric come out to his family and friends. I to am gay and found it really hard to come out because I didn’t know if all of my guy friends would be worried out or if they thought that I was going to like every boy in my year group but that wasn’t the case. I just didn’t look at girls on that was but that doesn’t mean that I look at every boy and say oooo he’s fit or I like him because it wasn’t like that. I just looked at boys that I fancied in that way if you know what I mean. I first came out to my family then friends and then it got spread around my whole school so I didn’t need to worry about telling anyone else. What I am trying to say is that it isn’t always that easy to come out to people because for about 6-7 months I would come home crying my eyes out because I was so upset about all the bullying. It was just really hard and know how hard it was for kory to be open about it which I respect him for so much. Sorry for the million word essay. I just really wanted to explain how hard it can be for some people to come out especially when you don’t think that you can trust anyone. Love you kory and love Colleen for being so supportive of him. Your amazing, fabulous and will always be my inspiration. By for now. ❤️
Me!!
Kore is like soo nice and I would give him a hug
I feel like Kory and Colleen saved each other. I want a best friend like them.

Fun fact she groomed people underaged fan join the justiceforadam he was 1 of the molested fans
I started crying when Kory said friends who called him brother wouldn’t talk to him anymore. No one should ever be treated like that! We’re all human! My heart is broken! God loves us no matter what! God Bless You!
YourLadyKatie me tooo
YourLadyKatie I felt the same way like no one should have to go through that all he was doing was being himself
Last sentence I disagree but I would replace I hope you have a great life or something

Christianity is supposed to make us better people. I'm a christian and by the time I was 13, two of my best friends had come out to me. All I wanted to do, is give them hugs and cuddles, and tell them I accepted them. The fact that I needed to say that... to say that I don't think of them any less... I'm sorry you had to go through that too.
Exactly! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This is why I look up to Colleen
She doesn’t judge
She’s not mean
And she loves people for who they are
Love u Colleen ❤️ your awesome
Edit: omg TYSM I’ve never had so many likes ty soo soo soo much everyone 💖🥺
Lucas Stoodley ABSOLUTELY!!!! Inclustivity is something I inspire to have every single day!!!!🖤💖💜✌🏻
@@dee-oy6fz uh... i support them?
And she gets emotional easily.*
@@dee-oy6fz This film is about Colleen and Kory. Nobody has said she is the only one who supports LGBT+ etc. This is the story of her and her best friend Kory. What exactly are you trying to shade?
D a n n y
Ffs, no one implied that she’s the only person who supports LGBTQ+ , your comment is pointless.
this shows how attached colleen and kory are, because when he started crying, she started crying. it’s so sad
Bailey Bennett it’s not exactly sad, it’s beautiful❤️
•So Basically• i agree 💕
More beautiful than anything. That's true love right there.😗😗
“There are people that were my brothers that wouldn’t speak to me”🥺💔
“There are people to this day who will not talk to me who called me their brother" that made me immediate burst into tears, i still watch this video to this day bc its so inspirational
When my brother came out to me I thought he was trying to steal my hot pocket because he made me leave the kitchen while I was waiting for my hot pocket to come out and he started crying and told me he liked boys and I body slammed him and said doesn't mean you get the last hot pocket and that I already knew and I love you I don't care who you love I'll always support you
Moral of the story hands of my hot pocket
Being gay= support. Taking the last hot pocket= not ok
You were waiting for your hot pocket to come out, but instead...
What we learned - GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY HOT POCKETS!!
Moral of the story: being gay: perfectly fine. Touching my hot pocket: I’ll hurt you 😂
"You can't control who your attracted to." Amen!
Fun fact hinduism is OK with homosexuality. No seriously
Check out @mind_splash.co on Instagram they have a post on it
When he started crying I kinda died a little.
I had to skip past it ooooooommmgggg 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
5.9k homophobes disliked this video. Hopefully none of us ever have to speak to any of them
I had to speak to a homophobic person and they made remarks about how I sounded like a girl when I sang and I asked why it mattered and then they said you have to be masculine and tough. I no joke punched him in the face and told him I’m pan! And then I left
Edit: it sounds rude yes but he also said gay people disgust him and a ton of other things.
@@aidenandwigglesart fair enough go you
@@justarandomperson8281 aww. I'm bi too. Yeah the world can be a scary place. I get bullied a lot in school but nothing ever gets done about it. Just remember that while you're making something of yourself, they're the ones slaving away in factories doing hard labour and getting underpaid. They have nothing better to do. Tbh all homophobia is is wanting to control what people do in the bedroom and tbh that sounds pretty gay to me if they are trying to control where a guy puts his junk
Or they dislike the video because they dislike what he went through. Bit of an assumption to make.
@@parentingwithmentalhealthissue I mean if they don't like what he went through why would they dislike the video? Surely they would appreciate him opening up about it
If it weren’t for Colleen.....
I don’t want to think what would happen.
when i read the last bit i jumped
Watch this: ua-cam.com/video/sqIF50lSNVo/v-deo.html
Emily Danielle what is it, it won’t load
Emily Danielle thanks for making me stay up until 3:00 am sobbing for an hour and a half. what a greeeeeat way to start the new year :/. just kidding, it was actually really good, and i’m glad i watched it :).
Judit Hendricks oh no! I’m gonna cry!
When Kory started shaking I literally cried my eyes out
At 7:00 I was gone
Same omg I died crying
Same when you could see Colleen about to lose it and trying to hold it together for him
Oh my gosh frigin same
Me too
The fact this has 6k dislikes is horrible and disgusting this was so hard for him and people have the audacity to dislike the video is horrible
IKR , it's just so sad that there is still so much hatred and Homophobia in our world and on youtube smh.
This is is just disgusting that this still happens today
Colleen will always be here for you kory 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
When he started shaking, I cried so much, and I'm so glad that kory has a amazing friend like colleen, and yes it is so hard coming out, but you will have friends that love you, and support you very much
When he started crying thats when I just broke down and started cying too.
Same x
SAMEEE,
Same
same i cant watch the rest of the video
*broke
I'm FULL ON CHRISTIAN, and I honestly thought God says to love EVERYONE. Like why do people take Christianity to be against them.
Personally I think you shouldn’t have to “come out” i think it should be normal to date and love anyone you want. And the fact that people are scared to come out is horrible. If we all just accept that people are different nothing like Kory’s story would of ever happened. Sorry I’m just sad and kind of pissed. Have a good day!.
#Truth
You couldn’t tell it better! #loveislove
Yess this is the exact reason I refrained from coming out for so long because i didn’t want it to be a ‘thing’ lol I just wanted everyone to know without having to tell them especially my parents and some of my closest friends I still haven’t told most people because I don’t want to have to have that conversation. When I told the couple people that know it was the most stressful thing ever not knowing if they would still love me the way they did before and I’m so lucky they both support me but ik there will come people that won’t and that is so scary that one day I will have to tell them. Sorry that was my little rant lol :)
I'm wishing for a day when coming out won't even be a thing.
Divio18 I completely agree. It shouldn't matter who you love. People should accept everyone no matter what
Me. too.
Divio18 bless you
Divio18 honestly, I think coming out will still be a thing but it won't be a big deal. You're still going to have to tell people your gay or bi or whatever just to clear up any confusion but it shouldn't be a big deal
Divio18 Totally agree. It should not matter who you love. Love is love❤️💛💚💙💜
at first I thought Colleen was coming out
PinkPenguin333 same
PinkPenguin333 me too
ikr
she's married though lmao
Honestly same tho
Kory stands for
K - kind
O - outstanding
R - remains BRAVE
Y - yet he is always caring
So true!!
I wish everyone knew that gay people are literally born this way. It’s not a choice. The pain they go through with society and even family is so sad. With so much communication in our world now, we all know there are many gay people and thankfully many come out on tv or video. The relief one must feel after keeping their secret for so many years must feel like a ton of bricks off their back when they open up to friends.
Actually, there is some evidence that its not 100% genetic and there can be some environmental things in early life (mind you genetics is not simple either, so many effects from epigenetics and hormone levels around and so on). Being a choice or not shouldn't mean its ok to discriminate, either way. There's no evidence attraction to any particular person is a choice, although you can deny and ignore it to yourself and just feel awkward, and have the option not to do anything about it, which is harmful in the long term if you always try to do that. But there's not enough evidence to say its all from genes and that level of biology. I think all the laws in place where LGBT+ people are protected don't rely on not-a-choice that as the reasoning (heard that it is irrelevant for at least some).
Not what the bible says
free rein free boys well the bible is wrong
Well I don't care man say what you want I'm done so leave me alone
@@thomasconnolly6742 don't care so leave me alone
this broke my heart. I've been a Christian my entire life and I'm very strong in my faith. the main thing that I've been been taught throughout my life is that Christianity is about loving people. please don't think that all Christians are like the ones at your school who did that to you. I'm so sorry this happened to you, Kory, but I'm so glad you had someone like Colleen with you.
this is exactly how i feel
Stacia L
A pastor at one of the churches that my church partners with has a gay son and everyone accepts him.
Not every Christian is homophobic.
I personally don't agree with it but I am not going to stop being your friend or say anything bad, people who do that suck.
beckah brooks ya me too. I dont even think about them as a different person. I do not think being gay is right thats just my opinion but ya I will still love them
As a Christian, you don't have to support LGBT because it's considered a sin. But you can still love the person, and care for him. Many people don't understand the difference. It is not required to support LGBT in today's world, because God doesn't support it. If God doesn't support it, you don't have to. But God still loves the person. So, Christians should do the same. You should love everybody, without supporting their sin.
thank you for specifing one of my friends is LGBT and i didnt know how to handle it.
Despite what other Christians say, I am Christian and in my heart I know that god loves everyone. I am a Christian LGBTQ ally which is very rare. I don’t care what anyone else says. God teaches us to love and to never condemn anyone, no matter who they are. I love and accept everyone for who they are ❤️ my heart goes out to Kory.
Me too
i agree! we all have a purpose here and we're all created with intention, we would never be created purely to go to hell or to be hated. no sins are more powerful than others, the same way people can believe confessing to and apologizing for your sins excuses you they can believe the lgbt community isn't so bad. we are all loved, and we should all be treated as such regardless who we love, what we look like, or what we believe in.
Same goes here. For ALL have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Without Jesus's love, grace and mercy, none of us would have the chance to go to heaven. It's not what you do in your life, good or bad that gets you to heaven or hell, its trusting in the Lord and believing in him. It's letting him lead your life and strive to be more like our creator. My love and support goes out to you two. Jesus LOVES you.
Personally, I'm an atheist, but i have gone to like bible school and stuff like that. I know how they talk about people who sin, and i know a lot of (usually old-fashioned people) think of gay people as a part of that. I love meeting religious people that believe in something that's had something against the LGBTQ community and are still allies or even part of the community because i think that's the real reason for religion. I don't think it's to make you feel loved or important or the stuff other atheists say it's for, I truly believe religion is a beautiful thing when used to bring people together, and boy is it a breath of fresh air.
@ Kylie Im so glad you think that way about my views!
I’m catholic and the one thing I hated about the catholic community is that they didn’t accept the LGTBQ+ but as soon as I saw they accepted the LGBTQ+ I was literally so happy and full of joy.
I’m Catholic too! People who judge others aren’t really Christian.
i wanna give him the biggest hug he should love himself no matter what.
Found out my mama has cancer today. So glad Colleen uploaded, I don't care if its serious! You're face makes me smile. Thanks Colleen! Love you so much
Unicorn Puff I'm so sorry
Unicorn Puff I'm so sorry. Stay strong you're in my prayers 🙏
Unicorn Puff prayers
Unicorn Puff this is so sad I'm praying for u 💕💕
Unicorn Puff my mom might have cancer too so i know how you might feel but it's ok💗
The people who disliked, don't understand what coming out means
True that
Yep
Amelia Davies yeah
Amelia Davies they had too many tears in their eyes and tried to hit the like button
Amelia Davies i was ignorant and closeted (i still am, but not to myself or my best friend) when i saw this so i disliked back in 2017 but i literally just saw this in my recommended and immediately upon clicking the video took it back. i ended up watching the video and crying because what this man went through is what i’m afraid of and i relate so much :(
i know this was posted long time ago but i feel like it needs to be said, i'm also out to everyone in my school but not my parents since when i came out as bi they told me i'm confused, they didn't raise me like this, they think it's a phase they said i know i don't like girls that way.... i came out at December 2019 as gay then, this January i fell in love with this girl who happened to be my last years crush, she still isn't out and hearing this story broke my heart, being with a closet gf is hard at times but it's never ever OK to tell everyone that she or even he is not straight, i would never ever do that to anyone and especially my gf.. yes there will be struggles at times but telling everyone without their acknowledgement is just horrible, just like how we all were in closet, it's scary, so plz respect them
Cory started crying and all I could think is "Oh honey I wanna just hug you and make you feel better, I'm so sorry you had that experience" I cried too
The second he started crying I started bawling why would people treat him like that why would you do that because he likes the same sex like why?
Just saying what the f of a name is Maggie?
Haruka Bazaar my mom choose it
Haruka Bazaar her name is a nice name and why are you putting her down because of it? Her parents chose a wonderful name and it’s not right for you to say something like that.
Meg Luu thank you
I did too😭
When Colleen starts to cry because Cory is, ahhh they’re both so pure
Millie Birkenshaw Well no expects It to be spelled Kory either Corey or Cory
Pacific Zoo kory**
Pacific Zoo ha it’s kory tho
Julia & Lola omfg I know, people have already told me lmao
Pacific Zoo jokes
You could tell that his thought process has been manipulated by all the lies that school has put him through a all the rejection his friends put him though, as you can see in his eyes he’s definitely thinking back to that time and see his fear returning to him as he starts to talk about coming out to Colleen. When he starts crying you can see his hand shaking out of the pure terror he felt of losing everyone he loved and I am EXTREMELY sorry that he had to go through that
I want to give cory a hug when he started crying😓😢
Same
I wanna jump into the screen and hug him
Raph padaze WTF WHY?
Raph padaze for what reason

I'm a Christian and i'm crying. I just want to give Kory a hug! I don't think anyone was created just to be hated.
Anna Laitinen Me too. Agree.
This made me cry too.
I AGREE!!!!!😭😭😭😭😭
*SAMEEEE😭😭😭😭*

As a Christian it breaks my heart how "good" Christian people will go from preaching about loving one another to shunning someone. I always make sure to tell my friends that are part of the LGBTQ+ community that I love and support them no matter what. I'm so sorry that Korey had to go through this, but I'm glad there are people like Colleen that will be there for him and anyone else who is struggling.
Excuse me while I go cry for days. As a lesbian, who came out when I was 5 & was disowned by my own family-this is everything!! 🏳️🌈🤍 so much love to you both
You came out when you were 5? :/
@@antheiheiant so what? I knew I was bi when I was 7. It can happen.

Nayeli Corona yes!
Nayeli Corona This is such a beautiful comment 😢😭
Nayeli Corona me too I started crying
Nayeli Corona preach!
My heart goes out to Kory. He is a sweet kind person entitled to love and acceptance in this world. He is as GOD made him to be. GOD is about love and acceptance It is MAN that does all the hating.
My brother is gay and he used to get made fun of for "talking like a girl" or "looking like a girl" and he used to cry all the time. My mom already knew he was gay but she would cry cause she would feel so bad for him. And there is nothing wrong with being gay. It's better to live your life loving who your with then hating your life because u can't be with someone you love.I know that coming out is hard but it does get better. if your friends don't like you for being gay then they aren't your real friends. All I have to say is love who you love and don't care what anyone thinks, people should love you for you.
Ryry F really well said!!!

I feel so bad for Korey it must’ve been a horrible experience to have to go through that to find a place where he’s accepted. I’m so happy that Colleen was there to help!
I was taught that being LGBTQ was a bad thing growing up. So being the little good girl who followed all the things she was taught I believed it was bad. But in middle school I met people who were like my family came out to me they were either gay, pans, etc. and I didn’t say that they were bad people, instead I supported them. Nowadays, I don’t mind when someone is LGBTQ cause I have four friends who are lesbian, pans, and non binary, and I wouldn’t have them any other way ❤️
I'm a mom of two adult children, whose 22-year-old son came out to me and told me that he's bisexual. I couldn't be more proud of him, and blessed to know that he knew he could come to me for anything, and I'd love him no matter what. (As if I could ever NOT love him.) But you are so right. I AM an open-minded mom who loves her children... period. So my children know they could tell me anything. But as I watch your story, my heart is so broken for you, and I just want to give you a hug and tell you that, even though you aren't MY son, as I sit here and watch this, I am very proud of YOU! I am so sorry that your coming out was so difficult, and that all of those close-minded people turned on you like that. But honey, they don't deserve you. You are a beautiful soul who deserves so much MORE! And your beautiful friend who has stood by you... honey, everyone needs a friend like her in their lives. I'm not only proud of YOU, but her, as well! I am so overcome with emotion right now! But please know that there really ARE people out here who love you. Like I do! I would welcome you, openly and proudly, if you ever need a mom! And I mean that! (I'd take both of you! LOL!) Love and hugs, sweetheart! I wish you BOTH a beautiful life!

I am so sorry all of this happened to you Kory, it's horrible, but it's always important to be yourself, and when you are true to who you are it will reveal the people that truly love you, if someone doesn't love and support the real you they don't deserve you, your time or your love, always be yourself and never let anyone tell you you're not worth it, because you are. So proud of you👏👏👏

LittleMissCrista agreed!
this really just shows how great of a person colleen is, not only is she so supportive of lgbt+ but when her friend started crying you can tell it shattered her heart to see
I’m sobbing again. I’m going to share this again. I’m so sorry Kory. I know this video has opened people’s eyes and I’m sure it will save lives.
is anybody else crying while watching this video in 2019?
Sienna Baldwin yes
Ay
Nope :/
Yurp

Kory is so handsome and so strong, Colleen is such a good friend, I love their friendship and they're both positive role models
Nicole Fitzpatrick ddgdh
I went to a Christian school and it really upsets me that kory was made to feel like a disgusting person for loving someone! It is mind blowing! If your ever lucky enough to find love then grab it with both hands! And I hope that anyone who comes out will have a best friend like Colleen because everyone needs one! Your amazing Kory 💕
I see kory as a freaking EPIC DUDE who is so funny and loveable, who just wants to be happy. Bless you both
Very emotional to watch. I am a conservative Christian father of a precious gay teenage son. No one should be treated this way nor shunned. I would tell any Christian parent that if they have a gay child your love does not stop for them. Love them. Listen to them and learn from them. Shunning is not acceptable.
Maxwell Smart very true. You're a good dad
Maxwell Smart I literally have never been so proud of a stranger before. People like you make the world go round
Book Worm Thank you for your kind words. I am still learning as a father. But I know that my children are valuable and precious. They all one day will have a family and we hope we have been authentic examples to them. Again, thank you.
Justin Thank you for your kind words. All dads should strive to be the best they can with their kids.
Thank you for being an ally.
Kory, you are not alone

Me too I felt heartbroken cause his story is like my story except I'm not gay but my best friend that we was friends for 10 years.
That happened to me yesterday when I got a terrible part in a play and it was embarrassing and I told my friend who was also in the play, then the next day there was a girl who wasn’t in the play asking what part I got but I didn’t want her to know so I told my friend not to tell her she said she wouldn’t then a minute later she told her and she was making fun of me then the person who I said not to say anything to, told 3 more people and I saw them making fun of me
Same😩😭
Bruh. I've never seen this guy before, but I love him already. When he broke into tears I did too. This was eye opening.. to someone like me who isn't homophobic WHATSOEVER. I didn't realize how much it can actually hurt.
I hoped this people helped a lot of people coming out..
Abby Paige no... it didn't help me too much.. if anything the reactions Kory mentioned kind of drove me further back into the closet... I just can't.. for me coming out means... destroying my life... just to be myself
you need to try and live your life for yourself, it might be hard when family and friends could potentially turn away from you but you just have to live your life! come out when you are ready! good luck to you, you can do it!
Abby Paige I just came out to my best friend and parents. My parents are fine with it and now I have a girlfriend
I'm gonna do it when I can already live on my own, and have an escape mechanism. Cause if any chance they decide to not be accepting, I can just drive away and never see them again. But currently as it is now... many of them aren't gonna like me, and there's nowhere I can go to. They are homophobic
It’s crazy how when you come out, there are people who completely forget the things they loved about. They forget about your accomplishments. And all of a sudden your identity is the fact your gay, and only that. It’s disgusting to not accept people for who they are. Even if you don’t agree, we can still give love to one another.
Colleen has quite literally done most of her healing in the public eye, and she’s truly leading by example. What a pure soul! I love her!!!! ❤️
I came out to my mom a month ago, and she was so supportive. I'm so glad to have her.
JamJam Tutorials when I came out to my mom as transgender she said to me “your not transgender, you just want to be a boy. You will always be a girl.” Rough times

Sorry to hear that. I know how it feels to have people not accept you (my father is really homophobic) and yea. Wishing you the best xx
@@oldtrashcan7535
I'm so sorry in my school people don't even think about hurting people's hearts as bad as they do
JamJam Tutorials how did u do it i need to to my parents to soon plz give me some tips
@@morganstanson-marsh8655
I personally just messaged my mom, but if you have to do it in person, I recommend you just sit them down and tell them. Yes, it is 100% okay if you cry, because that's exactly what I did. Although, *IF YOU KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THEY ARE NOT ACCEPTING OF THE COMMUNITY, DON'T COME OUT TO THEM.* once my friend came out to his homophobic family and now he's been living with me for a couple months because they kicked him out.
Your safety is more important than coming out, and if you are still really scared, tell a close friend about your sexuality if they dont already know, and invite them over to tell your parents, just in case things go wrong.
Also, if it _does_ go badly, a friend will probably be more than willing to let you stay with them until your parents finally apologize or accept you.
I recommend you watch this video by this epic gay youtuber, MacDoesIt. It's called "Dear homophobic parents" it's funny for the first few minutes, but towards the end he does give some great advice.
Hope all goes well xx
i really relate to kory. as an lgbtq kid, i grew up in a homophobic atmosphere, and it was incredibly mentally damaging for me. i felt trapped and i was pretty much unable to come out of the closet at all because of all the hatred for the lgbtq community that i saw around me. because of that past, i'm still too scared to come out of the closet, even when i am now surrounded by a much more accepting atmosphere. in my university, i see people walking around proudly with gay pride pins on their bags. i see proud, openly trans students everywhere. but i'm still too afraid to come out.
i feel his pain. you are so strong kory.
vomit I feel you I just feel like people that I am close friends with will drift apart and forget my existence, or my close friends will not support the fact that I like the same sex
You can do it! Just like I did for being bisexual
It's hard but if someone doesn't except you, then just continue being yourself, they'll learn to cope with it and you won't have to worry anymore
vomit l support you and the rest of the lgbtq community
When is was 10 I was starting to realize that I was gay and then when I turned 12 I knew I want ted to be a girl and now I’m a girl and some o& my friends still don’t talk to me 😔I feel you pain
as a christian, these kinds of stories make me feel so ashamed. kory, you are so so loved. i am so sorry this happened to you.
When he started crying my eyes started watering. You could tell the pain for him is still there and very real.
I know this video is old so I hope he's in a more comfortable and loving space.
Thank god that Kory had Colleen. Honestly, imagine how much worse the hole situation would have been for him. In my opinion, they are both huge inspirations
Keira Rose God bless Colleen.
God (the real god) send to you the people you need in your life and when you need them. Remember. always.
This is so heartfelt, and touching. I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing that.
Every time I watch this video I want to give kory the biggest hug. Love you man. Some people are just vile.
I came out to my parents today. So many tears but I’m so grateful for their support. Especially since they are very religious
so proud of you!!
@@giaelise6500 ty! I cant believe its almost been a year
Instead of replying to the horrible comments - just report them - don't feed it.
Geena Morgan thank you!
Geena Morgan You shouldn't report comments because they hurt your feelings.
Yes agree! They just want attention, don't give it to them.
Benjamin Nicol But they should report bigotry.
Geena Morgan YEESSS, those kind of ppl want attention, just ignore them
When he started crying I STARTED SOBBING OMG HELP I'M SOBBING THIS POOR BBY PROTECT HIM AT ALL COSTS
Rose The Unicorn SAME IM DYING OVER HERE IM STRUGGLING TO BREATHE BC IM CRYING SO MUCH :'(
UNICORNS AND RAINBOWS...HOW TYPICAL
Count Koopa Rainbows and unicorns are great
Rose The Unicorn ME TOO I CRYED FOR LIKE HALF 15 MINUTES AFTER THE VIDEO ON MY BED
Same! My eyes are really puffy!
I felt so bad when cory started crying😭💛
I've been watching Collen for like 3 years now and this video popped up in my main page, I clicked bc I'm struggling to come out to my christian parents, I've decided not to do so and just keep them out of my life bc of comments they've made, but still hearing Kory made me cry and of course his story inspired me so much, tysm for this video.
I don't even know you and I love you so much for doing this. The way you express your emotion and tell your story is so sad, but it's so inspirational to me. I'm a Christian, but I believe that loving others for WHO THEY ARE is what the Bible tells us to do, and that's that. I don't care if you're Christian or not, that's what you do. Love people for who they are. You are so strong, beautiful, and brave. Go you dude. You're going to do great things
Lydia Gibert yes!!
Lydia Gibert IDont know what bible do you read Lydia. Or where do you find the none sense you are talking about.
JUAN Q I wish you the best and I'll be praying for god to place a want in your heart for you to treat everyone with love no matter where they come from. you'll find more happiness in your own life, as I have, once you leave other people's personal decisions between that person and god. focus on loving, accepting, and spreading the word and god will take care of the rest.
Lydia Gibert now read it and instead of my name put yours and hear how it sounds please😀
JUAN Q last comment I'll be responding to you :) I don't want to engage in a conversation with someone on UA-cam about some else's decision that he decided to share. I personally believe he is very strong, amazing, and beautiful. I personally believe he will accomplish so many wonderful things in this world. Your opinion doesn't matter because he's already made his decision and he's happy with it. That's that. Have a blessed day hunny!
Cory: *starts crying*
Me: *a tear runs down my face followed by multiple others:
Love y’all and being gay is awesome 🏳️🌈 ❤️
I want to hug anyone who has went through this, please know you are loved and you are enough! When my brother came out, I was so happy that he was finally able to be his true self and I absolutely love my brother in law
When he started to cry, and said "there's people who are not talking to me right now that called me their brother" made me bust down crying
