Being gay is your thing. There are parts of it you have to go through alone. I hate that. As soon as you came out, you said, “Mom, I’m still me.” I need you to hear this: You are still you, Simon. You are still the same son who I love to tease and who your father depends on for just about everything. And you’re the same brother who always complements his sister on her food, even when it sucks. You get to exhale now, Simon. You get to be more you than you have been in… in a very long time. You deserve everything you want.

Anyway, I’ve been thinking about why I haven’t come out yet. Maybe it’s because it doesn’t seem fair that only gay people have to come out. Why is straight the default? Or maybe it’s because I can’t be sure this whole “being gay” thing is forever. Or maybe it’s that there’s not that much of high school left and part of me wants to hold on to who I’ve always been just a little longer. And then, when I go to college in Los Angeles, I’ll be gay and proud, I promise.

I’m done being scared. I’m done living in a world where I don’t get to be who I am. I deserve a great love story. Disclaimer: this is about to get romantic as F, so anyone adverse to gratuitous feelings kindly click over to the Buzzfeed quiz or resume the porn you paused to read this. This guy that I love once wrote that he felt like he was stuck on a Ferris wheel. On top of the world one minute, at rock bottom the next. I couldn’t ask for more amazing friends, a more understanding family. But it would all be so much better if I had someone to share it with. So, Blue… I might not know your name or what you look like. But I know who you are. I know you’re funny and thoughtful. That you choose your words carefully and that they’re always perfect. And I know that you’ve been pretending for so long that it’s hard to believe you can stop. I get it. Like I told you in the very beginning, I’m just like you. So, Blue… after the play, Friday at 10:00, you know where I’ll be. No pressure for you to show up, but I hope that you do. Because you deserve a great love story too.

Love, Simon. (2018) dir. Greg Berlanti

the thing that makes love, simon so relateable is that it’s full of little things only Gays will understand, like martin not knowing ths lyrics of bad romance or coming out in a car or the things simon’s mom said. the thing about this movie is that unlike others, its goal is to reach gay people’s heart specifically and not everyone’s and that’s why we love it so much. the things simon’s mom said are not ones cishet people will understand because they have not gone through this experience, and the facts are that gays are crying during this scene because it hits us right when it should. simon coming out in a car makes it so much more relateable since we have gone through the exact same experience. “my brother is gay” is amazing to hear because we, more than everyone, know how stupid this sounds like. having a crush on every person who shows us some human decency is a honestly a Big Gay Mood. it’s targeted to us and that’s why we love it so much.
