First off, this sight might just be the answer to my prayers. Being young and homosexual isn't the easiest thing in the world, and so far I've done a pretty good job of screwing up. See (at this point I recall all the horror stories I've heard of young girls who chat with strangers online, swallow, throw caution to the winds, and type the number anyway), I'm 15, and I've known about my sexuality for about a year and a half. I've been to counselling and have come out to some adults that I was close to, but there has been no help for me. As a last ditch effort to get some guidance, I have come here, computer impaired as I am. I'll post my crazy stories under the advice section; I'll warn you now that they'll probably be on the long side, but this is more than a year's worth of stuff, so... Anyway, I'm delighted to be part of this community. Just the warm welcome that you guys supply is more than I have now. Thank you for being here.
Welcome to the boards, I'm new too, they are really are great people here in making you feel at home. Good luck in what you do, I hope you get the advice your looking for here
Hey, and welcome to Empty Closets! Don't worry about not being pro at computers If you have any questions just ask! Looking forward to reading your stories
Hello! Welcome to EC! This really is a great place for advice and support, the people here are really kind and helpful ^^ I look forward to reading your tales! Oh, and great user name!
I'm really sorry to hear you've had no support from adults... that sounds shitty! But anyway, welcome! Hopefully some of the people here will help you out.
Welcome. I think you'll find the support you are looking for here. I've only been a member for a week or two and found this place to be a great help.
Hi guys - welcome. :smilewave I haven't had much time to be here lately - life is very busy ATM so please excuse me not saying Hi to all the new faces.
Hi Knight ! this is my first contribution to EC, so welcome - i'm new here too. why do you say 'tin armor' ? any way, I'm a 52 yr old male bisexual - more gay than hetro I think. My wife knows my sexual orientation - we've been married 10 years. A few years ago I came out to a very good male friend and his wife. They were surprised, he took longer to understand, a lot of explaining about sexuality and stuff was required - and he's in his 40s! About counselling - me too, I've been to relationship counselling. I found it really helpful. I needed to understand myself as a gay / bi man who had denied it for four decades. Yep, Knight, it is tough not being straight in our society. But I still am not 'out ' to my family or other friends. I want to be Out, but it is difficult. About adult support, I hope you find some close to home. I'm sure you have support here in EC. A knowing caring hug would be good sometimes too, ah! welcome again, Paul, from Oz!
