    Here I am posting away and I realise I haven't even introduced myself properly yet...

    Hello!

    My name's Daniel. 20 Years old and from the land down under, I found this forum a couple of weeks ago when I was trying to figure out how exactly to spill the beans to my parents about the whole "Guess What, I'm Gay" thing. Thanks to a huge thunk of inspiration from Martin's Letter, I was able to write my own and tell my parents. So now I'm out to all of the people that matter in my life, and anybody who asks. :thumbsup:

    I used to be a really active poster in forums, but these days I've become much more of a lurker. Nevertheless, hopefully I get to know you all a bit better, offer advice where I can, and share some funny stories as they crop up. Peace out! :icon_bigg

    Aww! (&&&)

    EC is great! VERY easy to lose a lot of time in here, but I always walk away from EC having either learned something (mostly from Becky, lol!), or gotten great advice on a problem I have.

    It's amazing in here, so enjoy!!

    (oh, and what a world-wide "happy place"!!! :thumbsup:)
