ABCNEWS' 20/20 is developing a story about the issues gay people and their loved ones grapple with when they come out - both before the announcement and afterward.

We would like to hear from men and women, young and old, who are thinking of coming out in the near future to their parents, siblings, friends and/or employers.

Would you like to share your experiences with us? If you let us participate in your journey, we will treat it with the utmost dignity and sensitivity. Your e-mail responses will be kept completely confidential.

Please fill out the form (link below), including a paragraph or two about your decision to come out and to whom you plan to do so. Please respond only if you think you would feel comfortable talking to us on camera both before and after you come out.
