    I'm ..... yal ' can call me Nicole . I'm from the great state of ky where nobody does anything , and everybody is a homophobic jerk. I'm fifteen , and have known I was a lesbian for about a year and a half now . Me and my girl friend had plans to come out to people that are close to us this year , but honestly neither of us feel like getting told how being gay is a sin . - coming from strict catholic familys -

    I feel like I have my life figured out for the most part , and thats kind of why I'm not sure why I am actually here. Maybe I just wanted to talk to some other people that have been through or are going through the same things as me . But honestly I dont know . I hope I'm not wasting your time , or that you thought you where going to read something interesting here.

    I'm open to talking with people any time .

    Welcome to EC, Nicole! :grin:
    Don't worry - you're not wasting anybody's time. We're happy to welcome any new folks to the community. :slight_smile:

    It may feel like you have your life figured out, but many challenges and many new things await you, and EC can help you prepare for those things when they come. Just one of the many benefits of using the forum.
    Anyway - nice to meet you. See you around. :smilewave

    Get to know us; let us get to know you. Then you will be out to people that are close to you (minus some drama?)

    Welcome to EC :slight_smile: If you've got things figured out at 15 I admire you. I wish I had. I grew up in a state where it felt like everybody was a homophobic jerk too, but that wasn't true. It just seemed that way at times.

    Hey Nicole! Don't worry, you're not wasting anyone's time. We're all in the same boat as you. And believe all of us, the sin reasoning is old and outdated. Why would God want to create a person who would go straight to Hell?

    Welcome to EC!

    I can relate, im in Oklahoma, people are very judgemental. I often get called sir even though I definitely look like a girl just bc I have a rad fauxhawk.
