On my way back from the high school reunion. Not sure if I ever shared this story here (probably on Twitter), but when I was 16 I sent a photocopied letter to a bunch of people (~25 kids, 1 teacher) to tell them I was (am) gay. Well… today I talked to that teacher briefly in passing. I said “Ananja, you were my favourite teacher!”, not expecting her to remember me at all. But she saw my name and immediately said: “oh, Anneke, I still have that letter from you at home” 🥹😭 that feels good :)
