Colton Witt I love your story!!! The animation in your expressiveness is amazing!!! 😁🏳️🌈 I don’t know if you’ll read this, but my dad also grew up on a farm in a small town...and in Japanese culture, men are absolutely the patriarchs and as the first born son, there’s a lot of pressure. But when I came out to my dad, he asked me one question...”are you happy with Cy?”...to which I replied, “yes”...and he said, “that’s all a parent wants. K, can we get back to the show?” LOL. So yeah, your story about your grandpa made me cry ‘cause my dad died a few years ago and it brought back a lot of great memories. Also, I just wanted to say that your family are TRUE CHRISTIANS. Jesus Christ would be so proud of them! I’ve always said that he would be utterly disappointed with how many people are spewing hatred towards gay people IN HIS NAME. So I hope that you get a chance to read this ‘cause your story accomplished everything you had hoped for, at least with me. 😁🏳️🌈🤙🏽
Colton Witt Congrat Colton! You’re a beautiful and intelligent boy and you deserve a great guy next to you to love and support. Live a happy life and God bless you!
Hey ;) I just watched your video. I'm not gay, but I found it really inspiring what you said. Concering real friendship, the power of a supporting family and how important it is to find the strength to show the real you to other people. I think we tend to often forget how much we can rely on the people who truly love us. I'm very happy for you that coming out turned out so good for you!
I really have to confess this is not like other coming out stories, you really gave my hope for this process, i still think i'm a little confused about taking this step, i can say that my situation may be a little strange, but hearing other stories, (everyone have a different story) kind of visualize another perspective
You're far stronger than you think. You're a beautiful person, incredibly handsome and though I'm still going through a rough time right now with my parents (I came out to them at the beginning of the year), things are getting better day by day and your story just shows that it isn't the end of the world, things do get better, and it's important to keep and loves those that love and support you.
What a great story and so well told. It is so wonderful to see how young gays are able to come to terms with their sexuality today. Your message is right on -- only word of caution for everyone is to be sure you can come out safely -- both in a physical and emotional sense. Timing is important in this context. If you can avoid physical or mental abuse by waiting until you are in a safe environment than wait. Colton is so very lucky to have such a fine supportive family. You are one beautiful person Colton and I hope you use your talents to the fullest extent possible. You should have a wonderful life.
This really helped me. Im not gay, im actually bi, so i guess its a bit different, but i feel like telling my mom did help. Im glad i saw this video. I will remember it and go back to it. Thanks for sharing your story. Hopefully soon I will be able to get out of the closet.
it's awesome how you wanted to share your story to try and help people! personally, it really helped me bc although I don't think my mom will treat my any differently once I come out but my dad and his side of the family are catholic and I know that my dad is kinda homophobic :// I also know that my aunt and uncle are kinda homophobic too. the fact that I'm pansexual, not gay, will just mess up everything even more, but I know that my little group of close friends will accept me (:
It's videos like yours that help me accept who I am too :) thank you so much for giving me more hope. My mum isn't the most accepting of me being gay, she kinda ignores it or tells me that I'm just confused... I haven't been able to tell the rest of my family yet, I don't have the courage to really... But your video really helped me feel better about myself. So thank you :) I'm sorry you had it tough to begin with but things always get better, they've been doing so for me too xx
This story is beautiful. I am not gay but this still helped a lot. I went through a tough time moving away from my home town. This video made me realise that I'm not alone and even gave me the courage to tell someone about it. The first time I saw you it was in a video I think your friend made you about you and your boyfriend. When I saw the pictures of you two (wow I sound like a stalker) (anyone who has watched this video will know what I'm talking about) it made me sad but in watching this video it has helped so much. Thank you for being you. I honestly feel like even though other you tubers might be more 'professional' you and your old boyfriend helped a lot. Xx
Beautifully expressed. My coming out wasn't the best, but at least my folks heard it from me and not some rumor mill. And I got to tell my mother myself before she passed. Dating is not even as positive for me haha. but I'm still here ...
Your presentation of your Coming Out experience is probably the best one that I've ever heard. The advice you give at the end (really throughout your story) is right on. I'm so glad you have the parents, and family you do. This is truly a different age and I'm glad we have come this far and prepared to move on further to accepting human being where they are.
I wish I had your experience as a young man coming out at a young age.... the older generations have a harder time tearing down walls. May you experience life and love everyday. May you be a light to people that need you the most. 😊
Good video Colton! I come from a conservative town in Illinois and I'm not even out to both of my parents and they have no clue. My twin sister and my friends know though.
you look like Connor Franta and Shawn Mendes put together haha there like my favorite people in the world! your amazing! you should make more videos!!!!❤️❤️
Loved hearing your story! I think it will help more than you think. Not to get to personal but I'd love to see a bullying video from you because what I've learned from following you on some of your social media I think it is a powerful story and goes deeper than people think. I think that story would be a huge help to many young people.
This video was amazing, the story had it all, ups and downs and fantastic conclusions, Im really happy for you and your family sounds amazing! Thank you for sharing.
Wow thank you so much for sharing such a personal story with us. It is really inspiring to see older generations and religious people accepting your sexuality because generally they are seen as the more close minded. Also your tips were really helpful! I'm so glad that everything is going great for you now you deserve it:-) P.s with every video you do they get better, I'm so glad you are more consistently uploading! I would like to see a video about bullying, and also tips on how to survive a long distance relationship (but maybe you'd rather do that with Jared too?) Just some suggestions:-)
That was such a helpful video! Latelly I've been notice that I feel atracted to women too, that I may be biseexual, and although I always had supported the gay community and my mother too, I'm kinda scare to tell myself ''I'm bi'' {it stays in a ''may''} and more to the others idk why. But this video had help me a lot, so thank you so very much Colton, you're such a cutie! Btw, keep doing videos plz, i love the lovely couple you and Colton make and I love your videos edits {pd; sorry for my english}
You're amazing and I love your videos and I'm so happy that you started doing videos. I really loved seeing your coming out video. I also need to say that both you and Jared are the sweetest peoples on earth. I really hope that you continue doing videos and I also really love the quality and effort you put in your videos :D
best coming out video iv ever watched!! your so inspiring like i literally started crying during this. you made me realize that being different isnt something to be ashamed about! thank you so much!! xxx
This hits hard because my mom actually found out I was gay by reading my texts. I was just lucky enough to have a completely supportive family. I'm glad you did too and I'm also glad you made this video to help countless other people. You and Jared are really an inspiration to me and I look up to you both.
You’re the greatest. Your honesty and charm are awesome. I’m sure this video will inspire and help lots of people grappling with this really hard transition. I hope you’re happy and find much love and joy in your life. Thanks
I want you to know that was very moving to me because you can understand that we are. Is who we are i am a Christian to and i have down syndrome and i mean it and was very very moving
Thanks a lot for sharing your story❣️🥰 It really helps a lot of people esp teenagers who are confused /scared about coming out.. And don't be forced to come out..come out only when you are comfortable.. All the best🤗✊
Thank you so much for posting this AMAZING video!!! It was super inspirational and helpful :D I really respect you for making this video that will definently leave an impact on many people. I am kind of going through a tough time right now with my sexuality, and these videos are the things that help me. You are really cute by the way :)
Omg you just got a new subscriber! You're such a genuine and great guy, thank you for this video. And I'm from Nevada too! If you're ever in Las Vegas, I'd love to meet you. We can be best gay friends lol
I had pretty much the opposite experience as you. I thought a majority of people would be okay with it, but they were not. Family reaction is a mixture of confusion, embarrassment, and disbelief.
This is was literally the highlight of my day! This had given me confidence for the future!! Thank you so much for this video! Btw you are so gorgeous!!!
I'm so happy. I don't know if this makes sense but I'm happy for you Where you came from, your family, the religious views. I'm the same. I'm Christian, and I've been long accepting LGBT community (I'm straight). And I can't tell you how much it scares me if people around me (especially family) found out I'm an ally of the LGBT community. One time I told my friends. And a lot of them is not being supportive of my decision. As expected they speak about being religious. But I want to let you know that I am forever an ally, because to me being a Christian means loving people no matter what their background. I know you help a lot of people with their problems of coming out. I know you're strong. But just remember, there will be times when you lose your grip. And whenever that happens; there are people like me that are supportive. People like your family and friends. *Be happy*
Thank you so much for being an inspiration to me! And well done for the vid! It has made me feel ready to come out to my mum, so i can't thank you enough :)
You are the most adorable character. Everybody has a great deal of baggage thats you and I love you. You pass with flying colours and there is at least some girl waiting if you CHANGE.
So entertaining, I simply loved your facial expressions that really helped lubricate the transitions of ups & downs u navigated thru... with a super cute face like yours!
WOW. That story seriously got to me. My dad is Christian and he is very very against gays and I feel like I can not come out to him , not so much to my mom but still just as hard. Thank you so much I don't know how I will be able to come out to them, but you opened my eyes on how my future could be . Thank you deeply. Oh and any advice?
When you said, "you were getting sappy", I was already teary eyed. I seldom cry...and here you moved me with your story. I am 70, and still tightly shut in the closet . It seems like I don't even have nyone to come out to. Lonely as a hermit! and awfully unhappy. Please let me know what dio you think, what can I do, ?
Wow you made this 5 years ago. You must be out of college now. I grew up in Highland Park and Northbrook, north of Chicago as you know. However, in the midst of that we lived in a small rural Indiana town when I was in 7th grade and realizing I was gay. What timing; very difficult and confusing. But good for you! 💜
I forgot I made this guys

I'm gay and it's always nice to here people say that they're still Christian or still have faith and are gay.

Your story made me smile and cry so much! There really isn't anything that comes close to feeling loved and supported by the people you love.

I used to watch this everyday 4 years ago. I’ve yet to come out to my parents, but I will someday. at least I hope so

Thanks for your moving and eloquent video. I hope April, 2019 finds you even hppier ...and ... have found the man of our dreams.
My cousin came out almost like this it worked out
