    Hello all!

    I'm Dan, I'm 17 and I'm from South Wales in the UK

    I realised I way gay at a very young age, and came out to my parents at the age of 12. At this point all of my friends and family know, and aside from a few shocked reactions over the years everyone's been very supportive.

    I discovered this site quite by accident, but I'm glad I did, I think what this place is based on and the help the members here give each other is fantastic! I know that as lucky as I've been, there are many LGBT people out there who have things a lot more difficult than I did during my coming out, and I hope I can give some kind of useful advice to anyone here who needs it, and from reading through the site I know there are many people here who would help me if I ever needed it :slight_smile:

    I look forward to getting to know the members here and becoming an active member of the site :icon_bigg

    Welcome. As you come from Wales I cannot resist - hope you are not the only gay in the village. :rolleyes: Sorry, shouldn't have done that. Good to have you on board.
