Default Hej Hej

I figured I should properly introduce myself on here
Anyway, I'm Fredek. I'm gay and 16 years old, and from Sweden.

I've been having some trouble with accepting myself and with trying to come out of the closet to my friends and family. I hope that this site will help me deal with some of those issues

No, I don't. I wanted to learn it because I like the way it sounds, but I didn't really have enough motivation/time. But maybe I will try again.

Hello Fredek; welcome to EC. I'm half-Swedish, but although Dad is fluent I don't know a word.

Ah, I see. I'm always a little confused as to why people like the sound of Swedish, but I guess it's one of those "to each is own" things. If that makes any sense. :/
If you decide to learn it again I'd be happy to help you practise!

Oh, interesting! Do you happen to know which part of Sweden he was from?
I see that you're from England, I've always wanted to visit there!
