Hello peoples! I'm stuck in a homophobic small town and feel kind of trapped not being able to be myself, so I figured why not try this site. I'm an awkward, Harry Potter obsessed introvert that's very cynical while somehow still having the ability to be optimistic. I hope to meet a lot of great people! :smilewave
