My coming out story

This is how people reacted to me coming out as gay, I know how it feels to come out and this video might help you if your going through the same thing.

You have taken the path to hell my dear . You will only find true love in the service of God. Please change your mind I am sending you my pure love.

very impressive young man

@@kiranroopsharma3684 Your comment didn't sound like "Pure Love" to me.

[@jimtorr3532]

I'm an 80 year old gay man living in California, USA. Sooo impressed with this young man!!!

[@intochill]

I'm inspired by your bravery and perseverance in such difficult situation at such a young age. You showed great maturity. Bravo Liam!

Liam, what a lad. 👍 At 15 you have many years ahead of you learning about yourself. Being gay is totally fine. You are what you are. Any friends that have befriended you, who needs them. You will have no problem finding new mates who want to know you as you. Stay safe, be happy and take care m8. 👍❤️

[@DougSlmon]

If you’re 24 years old now, I would love to go down and find you in UK and show me around where my grandpa was born there in reading England. You might know where that’s at. Love your story bro.❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@challismusic]

You're literally the cutest person ever!🙊 So glad you have now got amazing friends who are accepting of who you are, and are there for you! You're so brave and hearing about your story is truly inspiring to many, many people I'm sure. Well done for being you, and not being afraid to show who you are! Lots of love❤

[@Daysurfer10]

Rebeca must have been a good friend to press you for being honest about who you are. It really opened the door for you. I admire you for being honest, and even though you lost friends, you stood strong for who you are. You are a great role model.

[@LiamBurton567]

Aw! Thank you

[@marquavianritter8965]

[@redhood8141]

@@LiamBurton567 Its amazing to have good friends, I'm glad you have some. I truly hope that you are doing well

[@Codex7777]

Actually, that kind of pressure can be terrifying at that age. I'm certain she meant well but she could have gone about it better. I'm glad it worked out ok though. :)

[@tylerdarnell3222]

YOUR ACCENT IS SOOOOOOO ADORKABLY ADORABLE

[@mcmanpa]

You're braver, Liam, than those erstwhile straight male friends who won't speak to you. They're afraid. Straight boys who are confident of who they are and treat others with respect are not afraid to speak to or be friends with a gay boy or girl.

[@KJ-mf3lz]

The mystery of KZbin has just thrown this my way even though it may be a bit out of date BUT..... Well done, Liam, for being and becoming your true self. You now have two great gifts: first the freedom you describe to be yourself - your full and whole self - and secondly, a maturity beyond your years which gives you the power and courage to deal with anything life sends your way. How about an update. I do hope life is gong as you had hoped. Stay safe and always hopeful.

[@namemymiddel1524]

Don't u just want to hug him he's so cute 😍😍😍

[@redhood8141]

Yes, anyone who's an actual decent person gets a hug from me, hes super amazing, so he gets all the hugs!

[@hithere1590]

Name My Middel Troll!

[@Codex7777]

@Kelly Gibson - What on Earth is your problem? People posting supportive, affectionate comments and then you come along full of bitterness and hate. You do realise you're just coming across as a nasty, close-minded bigot? You are doing yourself absolutely no favours.

[@seamusogradius6263]

I bet hed like it if it was from a good looking fit guy that did it.

[@lewiswaite4735]

Name my middel your right he is cute as I’m gay but I hated coming out to my dad but my mum I told over text so she couldn’t shout at me

[@FORCEGOD]

I also came out at 15, I was broken but afterwords I’ve never felt as free. I would never trade my inner spirit, my inner freedom for anything. I love my self now and I’m happy. We all have lows and highs but I really wish you happiness and piece. I know how hard this is, been there, done that. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼Stay safe❤️

[@rachelwexler3417]

You speak well beyond your years...it's really incredible to see such a young person with the insight you have. I'm sure you already know how lucky you are to have realized who you are so early in life. It's really such a blessing and I'm proud of you, Liam, who I don't even know! All the best to you.

[@riverwhitsett4729]

Really enjoyed listening to you speak, Liam. You come across as intelligent, thoughtful, and kind. Doubtless, you've a brilliant future ahead of you. I hope you find all the happiness you deserve.

[@barry19901]

Well done mate. Totally brilliant

[@LiamBurton567]

Thank you

[@tinygingervitus]

5 years later and your story still has impact for others. I'm glad one of your parents responded well. My parents responded well and it's certainly something to not take forgranted.

[@pjmmccann]

Beautiful video, Liam: you did not lose any friends at all. If they were only "friends" with you because of who They mistakenly thought you to be then they're not worth grieving over. I have no doubt that armfuls of true friends are ready to ensure that your future is both beautiful and rewarding!

[@tashaleighton5198]

So proud of you Liam! This is truly inspirational, love you pal💞

[@themaushpit9791]

Liam, what a great way to tell your story! Congratulations on coming out and this video will help others!

What a delightful young man. An essential watch for anyone in a similar situation.

[@serendumall6706]

You're a very very nice boy and you should be so proud of yourself. I congratulate you for being a successful teenager and I think you're a great role model for other LGBT children ! I support you 100% !

Good on you Liam. I would never have been as brave as you coming out at your age. I was 19 when I told my mum who was fine with it.

Greetings from L.A. Finding this vid June 2020, so old news now. But THANK YOU for posting. I know it helped someone...maybe MANY someones. You did a good (and brave) thing. Hope you're doing well. Stephen

[@JeffAdamNetwork]

Congrats Liam! It must have really been tough going through middle and high school. School is hard enough. You reminded me of a scene in the movie "Baby Sitter" with Jonah Hill. It's a pretty funny movie. But I've heard such horror stories of coming out to parents that just don't get it. Good job on the video, I hope you inspired some kid out there that is miserable thinking it's so overwhelming that he doesn't make it. It's all about finding love for someone that shares the same love for you both to be happy together for life. I wish you happiness and someday finding the love of your life!

[@marilynm.monroe6710]

I know I don't really know you? But I absolutely support you (obviously, me being a homosexual male myself) and I'm glad that you were brave and came out to your family, even though some people might not support anything besides heterosexuality. Stay strong! c:

[@mike35273527]

you're fantastic!! In so many ways, that you'll discover as life goes on.

[@enriquelopez9124]

I admire you for being determined and come out, if they love you for the person you are they will accept you as you are, the person you are, I wonder how many supposed friends who heard of you coming back accepted you for who you are, those are true friends.

[@paulec2634]

I’d like to know how you are doing now? I only just found this video nine years after you posted it, and it’s great. Are things better with your Dad these days? Hope you are doing well.

[@garyhaines8296]

Just a few words. Brilliant. Brave. Inspirational and yes, you're cute. In all seriousness your insight at this age is almost unheard of. I was actually 30 before anyone knew. Having no friends made that part easier and my family were okay aside from one brother whom I haven't seen for over a decade. He visits when he knows I'm out. I live at home as a carer for my mother and she was great when she found out. My father passed away before he knew but he was a typical mans man kind of guys and don't think he would taken it so well Thanks

[@robertstruder4434]

You are a bright, thoughtful, charming boy, Liam. I wish you all possible happiness in your future.

[@donaldsimons2429]

You are eye candy, Liam. But respectfully, you are an inspiration. More power to you. You have a bright future.

[@musang22693]

Wow, it's amazing that you already going through coming out moment at early age. I'm not out yet, still struggling with my parent though. I'm wishing you the best of luck in your life. May happiness be with you always. Looking forward for more video from you. *Keep in touch, maybe. :3* Yeah, from this fella from SEA. Peace... ^_^

Thanks means a lot 😊

[@Daysurfer10]

Thank you for being honest. With your straight guys friends and, especially with your dad, it must have been tough going. But it's clear that choosing to be who you are is well better than living life in the closet or dishonestly. That is what makes you a great role model. By the way, you are quite the handsome lad. A catch for a another great guy for sure! All the best to you!

[@craig1538]

Liam thanks for sharing your story. So open and honest. You're such an inspiration for young gay people. Glad things have worked out OK. Such a shame about your so-called friends, because if they were true friends they'd except you for being you. They sound very immature to me. Best of luck for the future, young man!

[@nachociclonsl]

your bravery is inspiration. Hope fine, aim for the stars. Best wishes, good vibes

Even if it may take a while for kith and kin to come around, and even if there are a few people who will no longer be in your life, it is good when one can be open and honest with who one is. I am glad to hear that it went well for you in the end. Your true friends will stick by you. Best of luck in the future! This video is going on my "Coming Out As Gay" KZbin Playlist.

[@LiamBurton567]

Thank you so much, it means a lot to me!

[@patrickblaney1675]

Thank you for sharing your experience. You are lucky indeed to have such good friends and such a good mother. (It's not clear if your father was ever able to accept your sexual orientation, but apparently he didn't disown you.) It took real courage to do what you did and to accept the loss of some of your friends without denying an important component of who you are. I'm sure you'll be an inspiration to other young adults in the same situation.

[@lowri9102]

Bless, ur so sweet and I hope when I come out as bi everyone is as supportive as they were for u Edit: what’s ur instagram?

[@jerryg3524]

Liam, this is about the sweetest coming out video I have seen, you are very brave to come out, you seem very young but that may be 'cause you have a baby face which is cool, take care and be happy

[@dereks8590]

[@dillongarcia1475]

I'm 15 years old, and I wish my parents weren't so... Idk they wouldn't take it well..... They are religious and all and don't support gays. I asked him one day what he would do if I was gay, and he said that it would be the worst thing I could tell him and that he would not want me around his other kids or anyone in the family. I'm kinda stuck... I wish I could come out to anyone because I would be happier. Just thinking about being out would make me happier... But congrats on coming out. I know it's really hard just to say those words.

[@roberthess737]

They were never friends to begin with and most of the time they themselves are gay and afraid if they hang with you that their secret will be found out.

How do I tell my parents I'm bi ????

[@rickythewriter4042]

Hello Liam. Old gay guy from the U.S. here. You were very brave sharing your story here. I know it's very hard to do. It's flat scary especially to tell your parents. We can live without our friends but mum and dad, well they're pretty important. I'll bet you feel free inside like never before don't you. It's a wonderful thing. The friends you lost I know hurt you a lot. But you have to look at it like they weren't truly your friends were they. Their loss more then yours. Reading below I can see you have a lot of support. And you'll find more as you get older. Here is the important thing Liam. You are beautiful inside and out and you deserve to be happy. So be happy and comfortable in your own skin. Ignore the comments, they have small minds and they'll probably end up working for you in the future. So work hard and continue to love you. You're a pretty special person and those who will take the time to know you will see that. Thanks for sharing your story. And pay a little more attention to Grass who sits in front of you in one of your classes. If he's here listening to these coming out videos it means he is probably going to need a friend who is fiercely strong like you. Be happy. You "deserve" to be happy. Hugz.
