I'm ticked off. Do things change after you come out?

I am nineteen too. After coming out to a few people, just recently this summer, I got the courage to go to a gay youth center. so my interaction with the gay community increased a hundredfold. I would totally tell your friend and ask her is she wants to go to some gay youth group or something to meet new people. when you share that bond/commonality with something, i think your friendship depends somewhat.
