I've now been on here for the past 2 1/2 years, and feel that now is the time to move on. I've dipped in and out of EC rather sporadically, on a number of boards, but wanted to say something/somewhere to say to everyone how much I have appreciated this site, and people's genuine, kind and heartfelt contributions. Coming out is never easy however old/young you are - and no matter what laws get passed, there does unfortunately still exist pockets of homophobia which can make coming out so difficult. But without this site, and the people on it, I wouldn't have been able to really face myself to the extent I have been able to. Without you guys, I would never have felt able to be an openly gay woman, and proud of that. So thank you.
Awww, Froggie...I'm so sorry to hear you're leaving, but very glad that you feel happy and independent. Heartfelt best wishes to you...and never forget us here, and that we can continue to be a resource whenever you might find one handy. *hugs*
