    Speaking as a gay man of a certain age, I am here to tell you that these 2 are going to make it for the long haul. I see a lot of deep and real love and strong mutual respect. Also, their personalities compliment one another wonderfully. There will be no strong competition in this relationship (which can be a BIG issue with gay male couples); they fit together like pieces of a puzzle. 2 Mikes could be a problem. 2 PKs probably wouldn't last. But you put one of each together, and you have a formula that absolutely works. They are BOTH very, very lucky to have found one another. Every happiness, guys!

    PK, true love is letting your partner have 'The Mike Show' ! I have 3 cousins that are gay and my best friend is gay. When my sons were 5& 6, they asked me about about my best friend and why he kissed his friend a lot. I said that love is love, it's wonderful, some mum's love dads, some mum's love mums and some dad's love dads. I HAVE NOT WANTED MY CHILDREN TO WORRY, FOR ONE SECOND OF THEIR LIVES, THAT I WOULDN'T EXCEPT THEM IF THEY WERE GAY! So every story about love in my house has been, 'When you meet the woman or man of your dreams" or "I hope the first woman or man you bring home won't see your bedroom, cause it's disgusting, clean it up!"

    Mike, I have probably watched thousands of coming out videos on here, and made some of my own, but I think yours resonates with me more than any other. That feeling of knowing and hiding and pushing yourself to be who you think the world wants you to be. Playing football just because it's "masculine" and being terrified of having that "gay label" attached to you in any way. Expecting something to change and that one day you would be able to trick yourself enough into believing that you're straight that you just would be and you'd get married and you'd be "normal" and finally be happy. Whatever that is. And that void.. the emptiness. Been there so hard. I moved away to college this past year and was fully out for the first time in my life but the idea of being completely open on Facebook, to have people from my old life find this "secret" out about me..it's still terrifying. And I don't even know why. I still feel like, if people ask I'll tell them, because I'm done with lying, but I don't feel comfortable truly being open. I don't want to be scared. I don't have any reason to be, but I am. I guess when you do everything in your power to hide something for so long, the impulse to keep it hidden is still so strong that it's hard to get over by yourself. But seeing your video and hearing you talk about it makes me realize that one day it's going to seem so unimportant what other people think of me and that I will get there one day. Thank you, you guys are both so awesome and inspirational just by being yourselves and sharing it with the world! It's so important, and it's videos like this that help people see that they can be themselves, no matter what that means. I hope you guys know how much a difference you're making. Keep on keeping on!

My mother knows and all my friends but that’s about it, then I ran into a quote on Facebook that said Once You Become Fearless, Life Becomes Limitless. I have been living by that ever since when it comes to everything not just coming out, and then hearing about all the support you guys get and seeing comments people leave you makes me believe that I will have that to, Love you guys.

    I'm really glad you shared your story with us Mike. I think it's still important for certain people around the globe to see that not all gay men fit into a certain stereotype if nothing else but to break down the otherness that many people experience when interacting with member of the LGBT community. It's very easy to see someone as less than when you can confine them into a box and you certainly don't fit inside that box. There's nothing wrong with being feminine, I'm pretty feminine myself, but breaking societal molds is something that we all benefit from as a community. I appreciate your courage and I hope you and PK keep making such fantastic content.

    Good for you, Mike! Accepting yourself, and being happy being you is an incredible awareness to have. Many men are stuck in that trap of being terrified about anyone finding out they're gay. It's not until you accept yourself, and are not afraid of yourself, that you become truly free to be you! It's a wonderful thing to be in love, and openly able to share that love you have for your partner, and with the people around you that you love and that mean the most to you. I'm very happy for you and PK!!

Then I finally came out in January because I was so ready and I was just ready to be myself completely and not have to hide anything anymore.

    I completely agree with everything in this video. Being a certain sexuality isn't who you are. It's a very very very small part of what makes up who you are. It's important, but there's so much more to a person than that. So just embrace it rather than being defined or controlled by it. You're you and that's amazing, whether you're gay, straight, bi, or whatever. I love you guys and what you stand for. You're awesome. Don't change for anyone.

    I can't believe it took me so long to watch this video. +PK Creedon (mike) watching this video made me understand so much of myself and why I did the things I did to hide who I am. Seriously man it feels great to know that their are so many people like us.

    Mike, you are so well spoken! The people I know from SW Virginia have a pretty heavy "twang" to their accent! I grew up in Atlanta but, my parents and family were/are New Yorkers. So my accent is strange to say the least! Funny how we all go down our different paths to get where we are and look at how strong and capable we are. I am glad youse two found each other. You appear to be happy and balanced.

    Thank you Mike and PK for sharing your wonderful stories. I wish I had your guys courage when I was young, but hearing your coming out stories gives me hope and makes me feel grateful and happy that there are people like you out there. I wish there were more ( I know it's selfish). Seeing both your journey thus far gives me faith that there is still hope for gay people out there, all over the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Hugs

    It was evident to me from the first few videos I saw you in, Mike, that you were a strong, practical, down-to-earth, self-possessed person. I think it's those qualities that draw so many people to you and to PK on this medium. You honor us by allowing us to see some of the struggle you went through, the burden you carried for so long by yourself. I think this, just as with PK's coming out video, will be of immense value to those living in fear of being who they are, those writhing in the turmoil of that fear. I suspected, too, from the few times I've seen her in videos here, that your mother would react in the manner she did to your revelation, the way all parents should react to their gay children coming to terms with their sexuality. And, lastly, I guessed, not only from what you said here, but also from comments you made on your twitter account, just how much your dad meant to you. If I may be so bold, I think he would have been very, very proud of the man you have become. #LOVEWINS #mylovetoyouboth #butyoualreadyknow

    "Any choice I make now isn't going to be a mistake it's going to be a learning experience" that's awesome. I may have to steal that and put it in my next script. Great job on the video Mike. Watching this I realized we have a lot in common. When I told my Mom and my Aunt it was a very similar response, except they were watching Gun Smoke. Funny thing is I was interrupting an old show with what they thought was old news. Anyway, I'll say it again, great job and I'm sure this will be inspirational to many people that just need to know things will be okay.

    I love ❤ this video. You guys are so inspirational. I love the way Pk literally felt Mike's pain when he was talking about the passing of his father and how he comforted him by kissing his shoulder. Omg that was a beautiful sincere moment I had tears running down my cheeks not because I was sad but for the reason that I was happy for him to have Pk by his side to provide comfort and peace. Love ❤ regardless the gender is beautiful we all as human need someone to love and to comforts us. I just can't understand how someone could be against love, homophobia is not the way. I just want to thank you guys for posting this video because it shows how important it is to be yourself and to embrace the real you and most importantly how vital it is to have somebody that you love to provide comfort during difficult times. Finally Mike and P.K you guys are just beautiful and your Channel put a smile 😊 on my face and I'm gonna keep smiling everyday because it's worth it ( while I pat the side of my head).

    Thank you so much Mike for sharing your story!! I too was born and raised in Virginia and know just how hard it can be to come out (in my case as a bisexual woman) and be yourself in the South. But because of my awesome family and friends accepting me and always believing in me, I'm getting ready to embark on the next chapter of my life studying abroad in England 😊 I am so lucky and blessed to have the support that I do and for those who aren't that lucky, you being brave and sharing your story will give them strength ❤️ Good luck to both you and PK, you are such an adorable couple!!

Good luck, wishing you an eternity of love an success.

    I just started watching your videos, and I've got to say, they've helped me a lot. I've always hated that sappy kind of love, where you're really visibly happy, and I guess it's just never been in a way that I can relate to, that I can see myself being in. But now I see that that is the kind of thing that I want, that I do want to be happy. Like you described, just feeling all that anger and hatred from holding back that you're gay, I think that's what's really just holding me back right now. After seeing this, I feel like I can come out to my parents, to my coworkers, that I can just be me without having to watch what I say. I'm going to come out to my family this Christmas, and I have the two of you to thank for inspiring me.

    It's interesting, and important to both of your stories, that you mentioned that you had the confidence to accept yourself/yourselves. Both of you seem to have a lot of self-confidence and I think a lot of that has to do with your families' love and acceptance of your sexuality. It may be an abstract idea for a future video but I think you could do a service to your LGBTQ fans who haven't had such an accepting environment in which to come out if you thought about what makes/made you self-confident as individuals and talk about what you did in your formative years to give you confidence in yourselves. For example, PK, you seem to have arrived in LA and found a pretty good job in a relatively short period of time. I work in a library which helps people find jobs. Many of these people take a very long time to find one or simply don't succeed. What was your job search strategy? How did your self-confidence contribute to this? Anyway, thank you for sharing both of your stories.

    I definitely recognize this whole charade and trying to do as many traditionally masculine things to make sure no one ever thought I was gay. At the same time, these things also became a way for me to avoid confirming that I was gay. I knew I was, but I didn't want to make sure, kind of. It didn't help that the vast majority of people you see that are gay - in real life or in movies - happen to be more stereotypical. And of course, the gay characters from all those movies keep fueling that notion. I had never seen someone I could relate to, and that was a big issue for me. I don't have the most supportive family as far as sexuality goes, so coming out meant putting a lot of stress on them as well. I'm happy that you were able to grow up in such a warm environment, and despite the hardships you met early on, you seem to have figured things out :) Y'all are adorable together. Thanks for contributing to the gay community by showing everyone what love means, and that gender doesn't matter :)
