Does Everyone Know?

It seems that whom ever I come out to, or others out for me have the same response.  "Oh, we knew that."  It comes as no surprise to anyone.  Was I subconsciously projected my true self for others to see?  Was I dropping hints that I wasn't aware I was dropping?  However it was, it has made it easier to start being myself.  So far everyone that has been told has been super supportive and accepting.  I used to think that people just tolerated me being around.  I used to feel like I wasn't good enough for the people I hung out with and they only invited me to be nice.  But as my friends try to tell me, I'm important in their lives and they love me.  I'm now realizing that what they say is true and I'm starting to believe it.  I never thought I made a difference.  But I guess I do.  I am very blessed with the circle of friends I have.  I just want to cry happy tears for how blessed I am to have them in my life.
