Hi! I have a new article for Pillow Talk, a series I am doing with Xdress!
I could very likely be wrong, but I think two reasons many of us want to come out is because we hate lying to others AND we love this side of ourselves and it makes us so so so happy and we are inclined to share things about us that make us happy.
I never felt like I was lying to certain people in my life, but every once in a while I will think how odd it is that someone very important to me has zero idea about who I really am.
But I suppose that more or less comes with the territory for many of us. I think you can still live authentically even if there are parts of yourself that you keep to yourself.
Love, Hannah
