    Hi everyone, I'm new here, I'm gay, and a little older (49 and hating the fact I'm getting older), Canadian living near Vancouver, BC. I've come here so that I hope I can help anyone else who is having a problem at home, or who might be questioning oneself about his or her sexuality, and I want to offer advice, compassion, a friend to chat with, a shoulder to cry on, and share in your hopes, dreams and joys if you're willing to share them with me.

    I am caucasian and am in a 6-year committed relationship with a southeast Asian man (born in Penang, Malaysia, but lived here since he was 8), and our anniversary is coming up on July 25th (2015). Honestly, sometimes I think we are the same person! It's getting so I can almost read his mind and I know what he's going to say sometimes, and it really freaks him out when I say what he was going to say first, and then we have a good laugh about it. We have very similar interests in almost everything - music, art, culture, drama... you name it! And he's taught me to play Hong Kong-style majohng and I consider myself to be pretty good at it!

    If you want to drop me a quick line and say hello, I'm always up for meeting new people and exchanging ideas. I'm a friendly guy that I hope you feel you can open up to, and I will answer all questions or comments.

    I hope to hear from some of you soon!

    Cheers,
    Dan

    Hello, Dan, my name is Brayden and I'm a teenager in the Midwest in the U.S. Recently, I've been questioning my sexuality. There are many other people on here who have given me wonderful advice, but it would be nice to chat with someone as knowledgeable as you on the matter.

    Hi Dan.... (*hug*) What beautiful words. I was very moved by what you've said. Would like very much to be your friend and chat with you. I would like to share my experiences with you if that is OK.
