    Hey all,

    I'm new to the site and this whole scene, amongst plenty of other things. Just thought I'd introduce myself to get the ball rolling, lol. I'm 29, female, living in NYC in the U.S. and I've never joined a forum or anything remotely similar to it before.

    I'm also a bit embarrassed to admit that I haven't really come out yet. Funny thing is, I've told my sister and my mom but my mom thinks it's all a big joke. Soooo it's all about repressed feelings for me, lol. Anyway, I hope to be able to make some new friends on here and have a place where I can just be myself. Because at the end of the day the heart wants what it wants :slight_smile:

    - Cat

    Hi there, Cat! ^_^ Don't be embarrassed at all about having one hand through the closet door; there's lots to be proud of even for just telling yourself! I'm sure you'll love this place in no time, and if you want to talk about something specific, wall-message me or someone else, okay? See you!

    Welcome welcome! No need to feel bad about being in the closet, it's whatever is best for you! We all come out in our own time.
    I only joined this site a few days ago and already this place has become a god send, I'm sure you'll love it here!

    Hello!

    Yeah, there's nothing wrong with being where you are right now. Just take your time, as there is no rush to come bursting out of the closet with streams and confetti flying around you. I haven't fully come out to my parents, but I have done so to friends, so I understand how you feel.
