Default Hello

Hi, everyone- I've been following this website for awhile and finally decided to go ahead and join about a week ago. I'm really impressed with how open and friendly everyone is on here. So about me: after struggling over my sexuality since college, I finally came to the conclusion that I'm gay a few months ago. I've only come out to a few friends so far, but I'm hoping to work up the nerve change that soon. That's about all for now. Glad to be joining the community!

Hello my friend on this website told me about it. I came out to my friends last year. I am Gay and I have known since Gr.7. and I am still trying to tell my parents but no luck yet. I am looking forward to talking to other people like me and hopefully gain the courage to tell my parents and maybe find someone right for me. You never know
