    Hey, just thought I'd pop in and introduce myself since I just joined. I'm Chris, a 17-year-old student who lives in New York and is going into senior year this fall. I've always considered myself gay, but I'm just getting to the point that I'm ready to confront it. I'm still in the closet, but my parents and stepbrother suspect it. Kinda complicated but I'll explain it somewhere else later. I've dated once, but it was long distance. Lasted a little over a month before I realized he had been lying to me. Ready to try again but I'm more cautios about getting attached quickly. I'm here for advice and to make friends. Can't wait to get to know all of you!
    -Chris
