    Hello, I'm new here. :> I'm Laura, I'm from Finland and I identify myself as a bisexual. :slight_smile:
    I'm very happy that I found this site because I've been dealing with a lot of anxiety - mainly caused by figuring out when to come out of the closet - and I hope that here I could possibly find someone to talk to!
    I don't know if you're supposed to write a lot of text here but I feel like practicing my English writing and letting my thoughts out so :grin:

    I've come out to a few friends of mine, and luckily they've been supportive. I first started to question my sexuality a little over five years ago, when I was nine years old. Ever since I've been trying to figure things out and now finally, five years later I feel that I've figured out my sexuality. :slight_smile:

    Thank you for reading and I'm looking forward to spending time here. :grin:

    Welcome! There are actually quite a few other members from Finland and the rest of Scandinavia.

  8. Hello! Welcome to EC! I love Scandinavia even though I've never been there! That's neat about you first questioning your sexual orientation at age 9. I first experienced same sex attractions at age 10. I've never been into guys, I was just curious about their anatomy. Anyway, it's nice to meet you! :slight_smile:

    Hi Laura! I'm from Finland too but at the moment I live in London... If I understood correctly, you are the same age as me (Or one year older) :slight_smile: I want to hear more about you and your story... (I just couple days ago started to think about my own sexuality and I realized I was bisexual...) so I want badly talk somebody with this (because my friends are anti-gay and it's hard to try to tell them)... And Welcome to EC!! :grin:
