Hi I'm Don, and currently 18 years old attending college locally. I guess I've known for a long time that I was different. I thought for a while that I could "swing both ways", but I knew that such ideas are best kept to one's self until you're sure that's the path you're taking. I've noticed over the years that I've beocme more attracted to men than women, so I now conder myself to be gay. I have no problem with saying that some women are attractive --- and I wouldn't be telling a lie. The difference is that I do not feel that women can make me as happy as men. It's one of those things I can't explain, but I"m sure others feel the same way. I haven't come out to anyone yet. Sure, people on forums know, but it's not like they know me personally. I'm considering coming out to a couple of my friends very soon. (I have a crush on one of them). I'm hoping to learn a little more on this forum, and to better realize who I've become.
