    Hi everyone, I just wanted to introduce myself. I'm 23 years old and over the past few months have finally admitted to myself that I am gay. I'm still trying to figure out how to tell my girlfriend/ fiance. I don't have a lot of (read: any) friends that I can talk about this with, so I found this message board and here I am. I look forward to meeting you all and reading your stories. Thanks!

    Heyo and welcome! It took me about that long to accept that I was gay, too, and another couple of years after that to come out.

    If there's anything I can do, feel free to find me on here!

    Welcome to EC!

    And another Iowan! There are quite of few of us here. Kinda surprising:slight_smile:

    But you'd better not be from Waterloo:dry:

    Anyways, EC is a great place. There are plenty of people here to talk to you and help you figure things out:slight_smile:

    Hi and welcome to EC from Jim in Toronto! I'm glad you've come to this realization now rather than after getting married. I was married for 9 years before I realized I was gay.
