Don't read if you're sensitive to PC, swearing, drugs, sex, etc.

This one is a guy (apparently) coming out of the closet on Omegle:

In this Omegle chat a guy (apprently, could be a prank) comes out of the 
closet for the first time. It's not always clear what to say.

     You're now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi!
     Stranger: i need to tell someone that im gay
     You: hi random stranger! :)
     You: okay, i now know you're gay.
     Stranger: and you are the first person
     You: is that a sentence you use to get people interesting in 
chatting with you here? kind of weird just stating that like that
     Stranger: no i was being serious
     You: okay
     You: no disrespect meant
     Stranger: and you are the first person ever
     Stranger: and i dont even know you.
     You: well, i'm not gay,but i have a few gay friends.
     You: well, maybe you not knowing me makes it easier on you? i don't 
mind. i appreciate being able to chat with you here.
     Stranger: my family hates gay people
     Stranger: and thats why i dont like myself
     Stranger: and there is no one to talk to
     You: that's what the Internet is for
     You: a lot of gay communities online
     Stranger: it just seems
     Stranger: like
     You: yes?
     Stranger: im sorry
     Stranger: i dont know what i was going to say
     You: don't worry about it
     You: what makes it easier for you to tell me, also makes it 
difficult for me to trust that you are really really real. but for 
chatting, i will assume you are. fair?
     Stranger: fair
     Stranger: i am real
     You: and as i am just some random anonymous person, you assume you 
can tell me what you like. deal?
     Stranger: i just feel fake
     Stranger: telling someone i dont know
     Stranger: thanks for listening random person.
     You: well, you may be anonymous and i may not know who you are, but 
you are still a real person chatting. right?
     You: hey, no problem random guy with family issues
     Stranger: what should i do.
     Stranger: this is my biggest fear not having a family
     You: i can't tell you that, but i can tell you that i learned to 
expect that sometimes life is not easy, and i need to be calm and make 
my decisions later rather than immediately
     Stranger: but i feel like i have to either kill myself or move as 
far away as i can and never talk to them again
     Stranger: and killing myself isnt an option.
     Stranger: maybe.
     You: well, try and not be scary, creepy and crazy by speaking of 
suicide. as i assume that you are real and not just yet another 
prankster, let's talk about why you think you only have TWO OPTIONS?
     Stranger: noo i dont want to kill myself its just an option that i 
have concidered
     You: alright, you sound like a reasonable guy
     You: you're a guy, right?
     Stranger: brb
     Stranger: give me a sec
     You: ok
     Stranger: i am back
     You: :)
     You: welcome back!
     You: so, you're a guy?
     Stranger: and yes
     You: may i ask how old?
     Stranger: 17
     You: well, that makes it much easier!
     Stranger: why?
     You: you have at the very least another year of living at home 
before you need to make any decisions, and then you can also go to 
college, or work harder to go to college. that gives you a few years of 
discovering both yourself and the relationship with the family, from far 
away
     Stranger: i dont know tho
     Stranger: im so scared.
     Stranger: im so.
     Stranger: scared
     You: what are you scared of?
     Stranger: just loosing people i love for showing them who i really am.
     You: well, one thing that i am having difficulty learning here, is 
to not make decisions when i'm emotional
     You: to give things time and see how they work out.
     You: that is not saying that you should ignore the problem, or not 
accept who you are or deal with the family issue
     You: just that you have time to consider how to do it right
     Stranger: i appreciate your input.
     You: i try....
     Stranger: and it makes sense to do things right
     You: well, i am just sharing my t experience, it is your reading of 
it that makes you think of what you should do
     Stranger: how old are you?
     You: if your family is that difficult, and i am sure they still 
love you, it makes sense to look at what you can gain by telling them 
now, versus later on when you are in control of your own life.
     You: i'm [removed state secret from log file]
     Stranger: maybe one day ill run into someone on the street
     Stranger: talk to them in a line or something
     You: why wait? look for a community of people with the same problem 
online
     Stranger: and it will be you and we wont even know it
     You: well, we meet people all our lives. y'know what they say, 
humans are social creatures.
     Stranger: indeed
     Stranger: im tired
     You: :)
     Stranger: i think im going to go.
     Stranger: but
     You: you're a cool guy, i'm not worried about you. you'll find the 
right way
     You: okay. it was good to chat with you.
     Stranger: thanks so much.
     You: no problem. :)
     Stranger: im going to be wondering
     You: about?
     Stranger: are you a male or female?
     You: i'm male
     Stranger: alright thats cool
     You: one last thing
     Stranger: well
     Stranger: thanks again
     Stranger: bye
     Stranger: oh
     Stranger: ?
     You: the world is full of people who are understanding, as it is of 
people who are idiots. remember to not take things too personally from 
the drones who just learned to hate. unfortunately, they're all around 
us. but remember ther eare people like me who are open minded. okay?
     Stranger: i really hope i find someone like you someday
     You: you will. we're all over the place. hehe
     You: have a good night buddy
     Stranger: :)
     Your conversational partner has disconnected.
