    ok so when i first joined EC i was confused about my sexuality because i had feelings for guys and girls, although the feelings were stronger for guys, but today i was thinking about it and i seriously cant see myself with a woman in the future. it took me a while but i guess i found the answer. i am no longer confused. i am gay. :icon_bigg

    Congratulations! I was in a similar position to you when I found this site and I came out to myself the day I joined. Once again congratulations on finding another part of yourself. :grin:

    Wow,I bet that's a load off your mind. I'm glad you found EC and were helped to be who you are. It's hard admitting to yourself that you're gay. Congratulations!

    Sounds pretty normal there! (As, same happened for me)... Very much a process of elimination :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:. Now the question is do you know your preference in guys? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Congratz! :slight_smile:

    hahaha rob (im guessing thats your name lol) there's this guy in my school who i have a crush on. he's kind of a jock. he plays baseball and he's a bit built not like huge but he's got some muscles. he's not skinny, he has meat on his bones lol. although my friends think he looks like a rhino lol. i don't see it. so i guess i'm into guys who are more meaty lol.

    Congrats on coming out to yourself! It's a big moment (in my case, I even remember coming out to myself better than several other coming outs I did)...

    Now go out and find some men! :icon_wink

    Hey, Tony,

    That's really great! It often takes quite a while to sort things out and to come to accept who you truly are; while not always the case, I think the "bi" label is often a "safe space" for people that gives them options and allows them time to figure out.

    And great that you're sharing your experience. That will definitely help others who are going through the same process.

    One of my friends, in his "about me" on Geocities (remember that?!) said

    "I'm bi gay (Oh well, it was worth a try LOL")

    and I think that really sums it up for a lot of people :wink:

    Congratulations on coming out to yourself. That's usually the toughest one - at least it usually takes the longest. Good for you.
