You must have a wonderful mother. As do I. My mom said "As long as you are happy, I am happy", which is one of the kindest things that anyone has ever told me

Joseph Carl Breil I totally agree it’s not easy especially in high school

I don’t care that the movie is sugar-coated and a bit corny. That’s not what matters. What matters is that this movie can actually help kids (and adults) get through situations like Simon’s and just as importantly, helps teaches the crucial need for empathy and support from the families and friends of people like Simon. This movie can truly help people with what can be an incredibly difficult and scary situation that is made worse by the fact that it is inherently lonely. That’s why Love, Simon matters and should be remembered.

I would love it

I totally agree with you. I am an older gay male, who did not have this kind of opportunity to say "I am gay". My dad would have thrown me out on my head! Back then you could and most probably would have been beat up, or even killed, and no one would blink an eye. Bullied at school was a every day sporting event, and other kids just laughed. There was a couple times I thought about committing suicide, but each time someone showed up and I had to change my mind, I did not want them to be hurt. I always thought about other people's feelings about me being gay, and just hid everything. But I bottled everything up and to this day still hurts. I eventually made it through to the other side, even though most people made me feel as if I was not good enough for them to be around. Not very many friends here, until I moved from small town in Ohio to Atlanta Georgia. A little freer, Love Simon was filmed in Atlanta and some of the places in the movie I have seen. But I do totally agree with you and I try my best to talk to kids about hanging on and in there. I can and will get better.

Joseph Carl Breil sugar coated sounds like a bit of an insult. I thought it was a bit deeper and more thought provoking than simply sugar-coated,

I've been out for years, but in that scene, I actually felt myself "Breathe"

same omg

Nope that scene was good but the dad and Simon pulled me to tears it has so many good scenes do you know what screw it this is the best movie

The Gold Master the dad scene was much more emotional

The dad scene The mom scene And coming out to Abby And the kiss made me cry

When I saw it, it was exactly the same and at the end when Simon and Bram kissed all the teenagers burst into applause and started cheering at the scene and it was such a beautiful moment

J G, I have the great joy of working with youth every day, and you are SO right. They are our hope for the future, and if we give them the freedom they deserve, that future is beautiful.

how old are you? just curious.

yes! PRIDE ALWAYS!!

same!!!!!!! The movie was great and I literally don’t have any tears left😂 it’s my hands down all time favorite movie! I need to watch it again!❤️

yes!! i remember just looking around and seeing everyone just tearing up and clapping. it was beautiful

At the end my friends and I were the only loud ones and the rest of the people sounded like they werent even therr

Now that is what i like to call a movie and support

Nadia Bhatti .... I hear ya. It's actually my new tradition... i watch love simon every Saturday morning. It's great to laugh and cry to.

john gleason I mean, Simon really put himself before his close friends, but also, they should know how hard it was for him to come out. But I didn’t read the book so idk.

Okay yes they could’ve made more of an effort to empathize with his situation, but the fact is he still lied to his closest friends, manipulated them, and set them up for heartbreak. Fear of being outed, while a terrible thing (and I know because I have been outed before), doesn’t completely make up for that. He broke a trust, and that’s a very hard thing to forgive, under any circumstances.

I felt very sorry for Simon but at the same time I also kind of liked that they didnt make a big thing of him being gay. It was like 'I dont care that you're gay you still messed up our lives'. He didnt get special treatment for being gay.

YES! THEY DIDN'T DO THAT IN THE BOOK LIKE WTF?!

I don't think they needed to apologize though. I thought their anger was validated and justified, so there's nothing to apologize for. Sure it wasn't very great, but justified nonetheless.

Ditto!

we're all ugly criers. Nick Robinson is the exception. He's so cute

I also found that particular scene very emotional. She said something about him going his own way now or doing this on his own. And it was only when I heard her say that, I realized that that was one of the most painful things for me about coming out. That I had to do it on my own. That I was somehow different and separate from my family. They didn't know anything about those experiences.

Fluffy123: Excellent. I honestly never thought of it THAT way. Scarey to go your own way. MAYBE that is why Simon is crying in that scene. That is something I just realized. My sister acts like she knows everything just because she reads on topics like this. Reading is different from experiencing.

LifeLifewithLove ❤️❤️❤️ From what I’m reading in the comments, you’re definitely not alone. I don’t know how old you are but you never know what the future holds. The only thing that matters is that you love and accept yourself and do your best to surround yourself with people who will love and accept you the way you are. Because you deserve that and you are worth loving. If you can’t get it from your parents then find it somewhere else. If you’re still young then don’t give up hope on your dad just yet. Even the most hardcore parents have come around eventually. You will find power with the people who know what you’re going through. If you don’t have someone to talk to for help, there are many places to get support on how to deal with your parents. Whatever you do, don’t walk this path alone. I hope you find all the love and acceptance you deserve 🌈

gulegardiner You never know, mate, you never know... No matter what, he's your dad and he loves you, so please remember that. Give him time, give him respect, give him the freedom to come to terms with his own feelings, and one day he might well accept you openly for who you are. It can happen, it really can. Don't give up hope, my friend, and stay awesome.

Thank you KL for being who you are. You are awesome!

What a silly silly Statement.

Villa you are clueless but this father is clued in.

Wow. Just wow. This is beyond stupid

Charles Bars, a father unconditionally loving his son and accepting him is stupid? HUH?

KG2018 him saying one is clearly gay is bothering me. Just sounds stupid

mickeymouse2able the fact that Nick Robinson was able to portray this character so well was just astonishing to me and he’s played some tough roles too for example he had to play a drug addict in a film called Being Charlie not many actors/actresses have that acting gift of portraying different and difficult characters in movies and television shows and are able to pull it off, Jared Leto, Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, and a few other that come to mind are also capable to play different and difficult characters and pull it off... I give props to Nick Robinson as to be the youngest actor that I’ve seen to have this acting gift, I was a theater kid in high school and I played some different characters, and I’m not gonna lie, it wasn’t easy but I managed, but these actors/actresses make it look so easy going from action to comedy to drama to horror...

Yes! They make it look so easy. I like old movies (Turner Classic Movies) and old movie documentaries. Whenever anyone talks about Fred Astaire they say he worked endlessly making sure every movement was well orchestrated. The final result if you see any of his movies is him looking so at ease and looking like he's just having fun and improvising. Dancers make it look so easy. Gene Kelly, The Nicholas Brothers (under rated!!). They make it look so easy. What I love about Nick Robinson is that he's so funny without meaning to be. I saw "Being Charlie" and "Kings of Summer". So sweet, cute and funny and then he can turn on the pathos. I also loved Timothy Chalamat in "Call me by Your Name". The final shot of his face was priceless!! Reminded me of Greta Garbo in the last shot of "Queen Christina". YOU have to figure out what they're thinking. These actors are dreams

I just wrote what YOU wrote just before I saw what you wrote! Coincidence. He's so lovely. Great actor. See him in "Kings of Summer". Adorable

Josh Duhamel, however, is one sexy ass fox!! Even with the graying hairline.

Nuzhat Sayara 65 people (including me) agree

OMG! I was thinking the same!!

And youre bangladeshi omg never thought this would happen

Zayra Vazquez IK EVERYONE CLAPPED IN MINE TOO and also when they kissed in the car at the end.

matt & LDN I hope so much you'll be able to dig deep, and find the courage to finally Exhale Matt. I live outside of London. And the day I finally came out and embraced who I always was--all along, but was finally able to show the real me, to all my friends And Family. Was the day that I found inner peace, and a bigger part of myself that I never knew existed, just came into being, from that moment onward - - I was changed for sure. I wish so much the same kind of peace for you too mate! Much Love.. It's your time to be free, to breathe and exhale! I believe in you Matt! =)

I wish I could tell you some advice. I'm also 34 - birthday was in April - and I came out to much less than a handful of people. I'm not really hiding the topic, I instead hide my whole person. I barely go out, I have no-one I can talk to in a truly meaningful way (including my family) and although I've been living in London, as well, for the past 2 years, I'm stuck in the same place where I was decades ago... I guess I'm still afraid to own myself which, strangely, I attribute to many things but my sexuality. I should be able to deal with them but something keeps me from doing so. I don't have anything to cheer you up unless you count something as unhelpful as knowing that there are others slowly drifting away in similarly built boats.

Khy Maaren I wish I could just reach through the screen and give you guys a big hug! Hope you're feeling a bit better inside, now that you have come out to a few close friends or people you can trust? I think I can understand where you're coming from about not being able "own yourself" as a person. If you ever feel like talking to a stranger, who cares, and wouldn't mind talking in a meaningful way, feel free to email me any time! I'll reply back right away, I'm such a night owl, my thoughts keeps wandering, and I hardly sleep, so I'm always awake contemplating everything in life. So, here's my email, in case you wanted to shoot me a message about what's on your mind! =] (( Ushakasurfer25@gmail.com))

matt & LDN and Khy Maaren: I'm older than both of you combined, didn't come out until your age, and want to share this with you. Everyone's coming out story is different. No one can tell you what is best for you, because your circumstances are unique to you. Not everyone is in a situation where they CAN come out. While it takes courage to come out, it also takes courage to remain in the closet and live your life as best as you can. It takes courage not to give up. Remember that you are loved and capable of loving. You can be loved and respected and accomplish much living behind a mask. But there is a cost of doing business. And that is the doubts that you have about yourself. Deep down inside, I wondered whether people loved and respected the mask - or me, Whether it was me or the mask that accomplished all those good things. Even wondered who would accept my love and respect if they knew I was gay. Those doubts and guilt are perfectly natural when you are living behind a mask. Don't feel guilty. Understand that and deal with it. It's like spending your life breathing through a straw. You get the oxygen you need to stay alive, but you never get to breathe free. It takes courage. Your life journey is your own and only you know IF it is safe to come out, and when. I met someone to share my life with when I was 33, but still never came out at work, and only this past week came out to a bunch of my college fraternity brothers who saw my name in a newspaper article, googled me, saw I had earlier been mentioned in an article in a gay newspaper as being an openly gay elected public official. How they approached this was amazing. I got an e-mail Sunday from one of my fraternity brothers - with another dozen copied - saying they had seen the first article, and someone had seen the other in "the Blade," congratulating me on my election and wondering what I had been up to for the past 48 years. Mentioning the name of the gay newspaper was their way of bringing up the subject without actually bringing up the subject. That, to me, was extraordinarily kind, because it was all very awkward. I had been their brother for four years in college, but had never shared my true self in that time. So I e-mailed him back saying I'd give him a call and catch everyone up, but I was taking requests: did they want my story chronologically, or did they want the coming out part first? I took a deep breath and pushed "send." The e-mails and phone calls started, and everyone wanted to get together. They wanted pictures of me and my partner. They wanted to meet him. We shared our life stories, Tears were shed. They were my brothers then when we were young and are my brothers now, when we are old. Only you know what path you can take, but let me share the wisdom I have gained on my journey: the greatest gift you can give someone is letting them know they are loved and capable of loving. You ARE loved and You ARE capable of loving. If you can't come out, or if it is not yet time to come out, find someone to talk to. Someone with whom you can safely share your journey and your struggle. It need not be another gay person. Just someone who will listen. If you are out to your friends and not your family, is there one person in the extended family you can trust? I was where you are pretty much at your age, when a miracle popped into my life and we've been together for 37 years. So remember, you are loved and capable of loving. And remember this, above all: life is too short and too precious not to share. Now go and live your life. Every day is a gift. Today is a gift. That's why they call it the present.

I'm 26 and I can come out to my friends and to strangers but never to my family as I honestly fear for my life.

Idge T. *Hugs* mate. I'm sorry you can't share that special moment with your folks. But perhaps someday soon, you'll find someone very special who'll make you feel Worthy. 🤗💓
