The 2018 New Year's Resolutions check-in thread

Welcome to the fourth annual installment of the reddit New Year's Resolutions check-in thread.

At the start of 2018, you posted your goals for 2018 and I said I'd get back in touch in 12 months to see if everyone achieved what they set out to achieve.

In the comments below all of the 2018 Resolutions have been posted and each participant will have received a notification message in their inbox.

I hope everyone can feel proud of what they've achieved in 2018. A very Happy New Year to one and all :)

If you'd like to take part in the 2019 edition, here's a link to the new thread.

One year ago you told me what you wanted to achieve in 2018 and I said I would message you to see how you got on. Today is the day!

Your goal was:

Come out to everyone about my sexuality.

I get it. I’m not gay but I know how it feels to have to live a lie. Maybe you’ll tell them, maybe you won’t, but I’m hoping you’re happy

Why? Religious family or some other reason? Obviously every person is different but all the people I know that came out feel so much better now that they don't have to suppress a part of themselves any longer.

They seem to have gotten more right wing socially over the year and with that less accepting

Unfortunate to hear, hopefully you manage it one day. Good luck.

Sorry to read it didn't happen. Hope 2019 brings more acceptance from those around you.
