Here's a transcript of the text message conversation.
i'm jon. my friends name is, well i'll call him Rob
Rob in blue, Jon in red. My commentary in black.
Jon: Can you keep a secret?
Rob: If you wanted to tell a secret to anyone it'd be me
Jon: Ok. I'm gay. That is all.
Rob: When did you know?
Ok so he was asking when did I know and I thought he was asking when did it happen.
Jon: Um when I was born.
Rob: Oh ok kool
-ten minutes of silence, no texts-
Rob: Have you told anyone else?
Jon: No, I told you because you asked.
Rob: Are you serious or are you joking?
I hate this. When I came out in high school, I had to convince everyone that I wasn't joking. I was being sincere and this is what I get. FML
Jon: Deadly serious. are you ok with this?
Rob: I have no issues.
Jon: k
Rob: haha kool
He's clearly in some way disconcerted with this. I have no idea how this will affect thing when I see him again.
