I would also be a terrible person, I guess, because that many spelling errors/net speak? would make me less likely to trust someone. The insistence your gayness would have been kept secret, despite you saying that you wouldn't have cared what most people would have thought would also make me wary-- alongside all the unconscious homophobic things you mentioned.

I'm only friends with one person I knew in high school, and I only became good friends with her at college. Perhaps it's terrible, but I don't miss the people I went to high school with at all. I've made my good friends in college and online during college.
