Hey! I’m Severin, 14 years old and from Kaufbeuren, a little village near Augsburg [Bavaria, Germany].
Well I’d like to try telling you about my coming-out, that’s not easy for me at all.
It’s been about 3 years ago, I wasn’t just yet 12 and have had two “kindergarten girlfriends” so far.
After them a long and eventfully time began…
My mother and my father were both at the hospital, one after the other, and fought for their future.
I’ve been thinking a lot and got to know me. When a friend invited me to a barbecue, everything started off. It was Roman who was there too. We spend the whole evening together and hat a lot of fun. For the following days I couldn’t think about anything but himand met him in school a lot. I really had a crush on him. I came out due to this to my best friend and some classmates, what went really well and encouraged me.
Some weeks later I registered in a gay chat and got to know a cute guy I chatted a long time with. He finally succeeded to conquer my heart that belonged to Roman till then. After out first date I was certain and wanted nothing to stand between us and our relation. That’s why I started coming out “completly”. I came out to my family at my 12th birthday at the beginning of summerholidays. At that time nobody took me and that for real, I’ve been the small, thin boy for them.
I tried again during our vacation in Austria and this time they listened! Still in the summer holidays my parents invited my recently gained friend who I wasn’t able to see until then. My parents got to know him and immediatly took him in their hearts. On the last weekend before school started over I visited him in Regensburg to see his home. Back in school I started totally different, was open about my homosexuality and didn’t get any negative reactions! So I was finally completly “out” and head over heels in love with my boyfriend – which whom I’m still together…

Mmm… aryan hottie. :P
I wish boys who looked like that could have come out when I was a boy. I sort of came out when I was 13, I offered blow jobs to other boys my age and quite a few took me up on the offer. I just didn’t know I was being gay.
Also something nice:

Wow sorry for the bad German Josh, ;-) I remember reading an article in Destroyer about how being a BL or TBL makes one want to learn languages so that ‘you can understand what that beautiful boy is saying to you” this reminded me of that!
Hey Josh, check [ this ] out.
Please can someone post a translation? Thanks so much.

I came out due to this to my best friend (female) and some classmates, what went really well and
encouraged me.

reactions!
So was I finally completly “out” and head over heels in love with my boyfriend – which whom I’m still
together..
I tried a Babelfish translation (always a last resort, but I have no German, only French) and there was a phrase in there, something like “I don’t think I’m lean-addicted.” I didn’t know what to make of it; I thought perhaps it was a literal rendering of a reference to an eating disorder.
@Geo
Yup, it means anorexic. Jay kicked this very (and only this) sentence in his translation cause it wasn’t relevant to the story.
I’m glad you translated this, I’m afraid that such a story is not possible in all societies in the world. Many people in Germany have it fairly good, comapratively, I think.
@Geo Argh, you had to pick out just the only little annotation Severin made and I cut out, must be my lucky day ;).
He commented that some people thought he was aneroxic becaus he was / is very thin but he thinks himself, that he’s not. I don’t know why he adds that in a coming-out story, perhaps it was a big thing for him that time or he just wants attention *shrug*
@Max Sure it’s easier to come out here than in many other countries of the world.
But I think that coming out so early and also not getting any negative reactions is pretty uncommon in Germany, too.
He has either a persuasive attitude or a very lucky school, I think.
Sounds a lil bit like a fictional constructed story……….
If I were gay, and told my parents they’d probably kill me :D It’s actually quite funny.
Is it possible that a twelve year old can establish his sexuality?
yep, total cutie.
I also wonder if it is possible to establish his sexuality so young, I had no idea and it wasn’t that hard to be in the closet at the time. Must be a wild one. :P
Thanks so much for taking the time and trouble to translate, Jay… very much appreciated… interesting, positive ‘coming out’ story.
Its bloody fucking important to not give a fuck about other peoples opinion if their objective is only to let you think in their comfortzone,nomatter what subject,sex,religion whateverr!! I think he could out himself so easily at 12 cos he is fuckin goodlooking!.If he had been a little less hot or confident , its only natural for humans to pick on others to make themselves feel better or hide their own insecurity, that`s why one sees so many married men with childseats in the back of their leasestationwagons on the parkinglots on the highways looking for boyprostitutes, Common people R HIPPOCRITES!!!I say…So be proud of who you r and what you think and FFUCK THE REST;YOURE THE BEST!. starboy prophecies productions
hey, is that really you, the famous hemaworstje? I read your blog years ago, but it’s just to much females for my taste.
Nice to meet you here again (calling 14 year olds “hot” and “good looking”; I always suspected it ;) )
sal,esti tare frumosule
omg when i told mi friends i was bi they flipped and ive been going out with guy and gurls for years. im a punk rocker i have mi own band and well its not easy but i like it!!!!!!! sooooo ya!!!!
Looks almost identical to my 9th-grade boyfriend.
too all those that wonder if its possible to be sure of ya sexuality at that age the answer is yes. I am 18 and have never ever been interested in girls and have had the same boyfriend scince i was 13. we’ve been best friends scince we were 6. so it does happen.
My GOD boys didn’t look like that when I was in school, geeze!
I still havent come out to my family yet =/
With a look like that – and his blond crown- I guess everybody will respect coming out, he looks so great, you have to love him, whatever he says!.
