Many of us who were brought up religious spent our youth trying to pray away the gay. It doesn't work. I got to the point where I started praying for death since the gay was not going away. It took a long time for me to realize that God loved me for who I am and He loves you as well. Very nice job on the video.
Super helpful Thank you so Much for this video , I Literally cried watching Like No Joke I'm in between on Tell my mom Right now I'm stuck on if I should do it or Not And Watching this video Gave Me The Strength. Thank You
Ivan - I'm an elderly gay practising Catholic and I believe God made us how we are - part of the rich diversity of human nature which he created. I was really moved by the way you spoke up for LGBT people. Don't ever leave your religion - help change the attitudes of those who call themselves Catholics and don't understand that Christ has a special love for those the world despises. You speak so well, even though the music was so loud, you'll be heard whatever the opposition because you're speaking truth from the heart. God bless you!
Thanks for your story. I`m realy touched. You are very kind and open-hearted man. I hope you will be happy. You have loving family and reliable friends. Good luck!
I truly hope the Lord will use you as a positive role model to all the struggling teenagers in this world. I really enjoyed watching this video...you are an inspiration. God be with you always
You are AWESOME!!! Thank you for sharing your story. It is so important for people to communicate what they have gone thru. You brought tears to my eyes when you were speaking about your mom. This reaction does not always happen but you touched me. Stay strong and remember you are not alone. Please make more videos. Big Dave
Ivan I wish, probably like many others , that you would do an update on your life. You are an inspiration and awesome!. In case you didn't know it, your vid is still on line
Very nice and don't let any man or woman on this earth push their religion on to you. The Love of God comes from within each of our hearts and nowhere else. He did make us just the way we are and loves us the same.
This is great. :) When I was in third grade, I used to stare at the boy who sat in front of me in class -- he was the most beautiful person in the world. When our teachers showed us the old colorful 1968 version of "Romeo and Juliet", the other boys were crushing on Juliet and I was totally enamored with Romeo. There are so many, so many like us. You are a brave, wonderful young man, and you will have a great life. God bless you, and may you have a fantastic boyfriend.
Oh hun I feel the same when I came out. I had to wait for my parents passed away. It socks cause u had to live a lie. But now I don't care hugs to you hun
It gets better because people like you have the courage to come out at such a young age. And no, you don't have to obey your parish priest. God didn't create the catholic church; it is a man-made institution created by flawed human beings, run by flawed human beings. To idealize the church or the priests, to place them on the same level as God is to do what the Bible warns against: to commit idolatry. Only you (and God) know your truth.
you like it , you know you do , it's why you have been trolling these gay vids . um hmm . Besides if you have a girl , you would jump all over that if she let you . And whats the difference ,giving or taking ? Same thing , actually giving would make you more gay than receiving . Because the giver is going for the pleasure just as much .

Damn dude you've got big balls for what you did at school, it really is acts like that that help progress our society.

Nice coming out bro.
Very nice and don't let any man or woman on this earth push their religion on to you. The Love of God comes from within each of our hearts and nowhere else. He did make us just the way we are and loves us the same.
Forget the priest, he does not know what his talking about. God bless you.
This is great. :)

What an amazing story - congratulations
Amen brother
Dude This video is so...I dunno it just made me so happy ;) x
In suspect you got through high school just fine and now in college. The inner strength you fond at 16 will serve well in life.
Being gay is akin to being left-handed. It is natural and part of God's good creation. You are beautiful and awesome as you are.
Thanks guys! Means a lot!
Congratulations......I have total admiration for you.
Hey Guys, Thank you for love. I am in college now and have reconciled my faith and my sexuality. I will for sure make a video giving an update.
I love you Jaime :)
Super Helpful Thank you So Much For This Video
Thanks for your video. I wish I could come out
How old are you?
30
If this topic disgusts you why did you come and watch it? The title is "coming out story at 16." You are the one with issues.
I think he was reading a libretto.
