Hey All. Just thought I'd come and introduce myself. My name is Charlie I found this place via my counsellor/lifecoach/therapist (call her what you wish) and yeah, here I am! I'm trying to be brave and open about stuff because for 23 years I've just kinda shrugged of all of my feelings to be the person that other people want me to be, and so yeah, I'm trying this whole being me thing - which has led me to be very confused about my orientation. And I'm not very good at talking (apparently I have big walls and like to close people off to keep me (and them) safe). Haha. So... I pretty much think that is me. I'm just trying to figure stuff out, and everyone on here seems really nice and I think I need people like that around at the moment. So, hello! Haha.
Hello and welcome! We're a friendly bunch here so no worries. If you need to talk, want to vent, or just want to post some random thing for the fun of it there's always someone around willing to listen Anyways, enjoy the stay ^^
Do not worry about discussing private issues as no one knows who you are, and most people on this forum have had/ or are having similar experiences as you. It doesn't matter whether your questions are odd either. I managed to come to terms with my sexuality and tell people simply by reading other peoples stories and also talking and contributing to the site. There is a lot that can be learned. Isn't Charlie Chalk some animated character? If not, I'm not slagging your name off don't worry.
That's really good to know, thanks! And you are not wrong! He was haha. I panic username'd myself :lol: I got called Charlie Chalk a lot at school because of being called Charlie and the cartoon's popularity, and here the name is once more hahaha.
Ah I see, we used to call a lad at school Charlie Chalk. Although that name seems to have died out in favour of Charlie Brown. How dare they forget about the good ol' days!
It definitely hasn't died out, I'm still living with the pain :lol: I get Charlie Brown a lot too haha. Thanks everyone else for the warm welcome
