    I am a 20 year old student and I have been thinking (and denying) that I might be gay for several years already. Lately I have started to accept this and went searching for some help on the web and found this site :slight_smile: I do not feel like I'm ready to come out to anyone, but I hope some time here will help leed me in that direction.
    When I am ready, i know who I'm going to tell first at least :slight_smile:
    Anyway, glad to be here! :slight_smile:

    Welcome to EC, Benny. I've only been on here for a few weeks, but I enjoy reading what people have to say about different experiences of coming out and life in general. I'm sure you'll find lots of good support and advice (if you need it) during your own coming out process.

    No it's my best friend :slight_smile: A girl I've known half my life.. I kinda have a feeling she already knows and that makes it easier, I think :slight_smile:

    Hi Benny and welcome

    I hope you find this community helpful and friendly. I love reading other people's stories - to know there are so many people out there who totally get what you are feeling. It makes me feel better about myself and the coming out process i went through, but it also makes me a little sad that people still have to get through it on their own - hopefully this site can go a long way to helping with that. Take care...and best friends always know lol

    Actually I told her last night and she had no idea, which I found pretty odd, when I think about it.. Anyway, she was super supportive and she said she was proud of me.. Greatest feeling ever :slight_smile:
