    I've asked for advice on here plenty. Now it's time for me to post a (possible) success story!
    I came out to my quite about a month ago. I've only been able to accept my sexuality myself for about 4-t months. Well, we decided to sort of live seperate lives together. I decided to post my situation on a local singles site. I posted my stats, interests, what I'm looking for,and I just added at the bottom the situation with my wife. I got a lot of responses, mostly porn pics from guys looking for someone to sleep with. But, an ad stood out from the rest. We started talking, and after a week or so, we met for breakfast. Lo, and behold, we clicked. We've been on a handful of dates, and I'm forcing myself to take it slow, but I have feelings for this wonderful man that I have never felt for another person. How things go remain to be seen, but I'm hopeful! My boss even asked why I have a permanent smile lately!
    So, to everyone feeling like your world is ending, chin up! It is possible to find love, and its possible, quickly, sometimes!

    Mods, feel free to move this post if its in a bad area.

    To be clear, this post wasn't about bragging, or being congratulated, but I appreciate the comments. It was simply meant to help cheer up anyone who is feeling like I did about a month ago - like your world is out of control. It might take longer for some people to find love; some, it may be less time. It can and will happen, tho :slight_smile:

    This really is great to hear. I'm living proof as well - that things can turn around for the better.

    I'm really glad to hear that you're trying to take things slowly. My experience (and that of severl others that have passed through EC) is that the first crush is sometimes more about the feelings and emotions that you're feeling for the first time than it is about the actual person. I remember feeling so incredibly good when I met someone - excited and happy - but in hind sight they really weren't right for me. Just a caution.

    But enjoy the good feelings - you totally deserve them!
