    Well this looks like a good place to make my first post!! Here it goes....
    .... As i am sure you have picked up by now, i am new here, i am gay and my names is James.
    I found this place as i was looking on the net for comming out info, as i know the time is comming for me to take that big step and announce the good/bad (Delete as appropriate) news........... And to be honest i am s***ing my self!! lol

    I am 25 (nearly 26) and i just feel like my life will not move on untill i am true to myself. I am sure most of you here have done this already and i can not tell you how much respect i have for those of you that have done this already! You ar ebrave people and i hope that the people around you understand just how hard it is!!

    I am so pleased to find a place like this, as i have no gay friends and dont know any gay people that i can talk to. (i know a few gay people but not well enough to talk to!) I have tried a few chat rooms, but people seemed more interested in the size of my bits and if i have a cam or not.... Not really what i was looking for!!

    Well i am sure i have bored you all enough now, and well done if you are still reading this, i promise it does end soon!!

    I hope to chat with all of you soon, and hope to make a few friends!

    James
    P.S - My spelling is terrible - you have been warned!

    Hi James!
    Welcome to EC. It's a great place to just be you. Everyone here is supportive and willing to "listen". I'm glad you found EC...I know you'll like it!
    Coming out is hard (I did it years ago...shhh!) when I was 16.
    People come out at different times,in different ways. I hope your coming out goes
    great! Good Luck! Mickey*

    Hello James and welcome! Don't worry, I came out when I was 25, and I had also hit a point where I couldn't proceed until I was true to myself. This place is a huge help, and I'll be pulling for you!
