    Hi, I'm a bisexual cisgender woman who's only interested in dating women. I got forced out of the closet with my mom. Eventually led to her requesting I go to a place where they would "fix" me. I came out to my sister with a positive reaction. Most of my friends are cool with it. So, hey. :icon_bigg:

    Hiya, Heart! I can sympathize there. When I came out, my own brother said my head was wired wrong and I should see a therapist. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Pleasure meeting yah!

    Welcome to EC! I'm really sorry to hear about the awful experiences of being forced out and the attempted fixing. It sounds very traumatic and I hope you have recovered from it now.

    We're here to help and support each other, so I hope you will join in and make friends. :slight_smile:

    Welcome!!

    You definitely don't need to be 'fixed.' Unfortunately, that is the perception of some individuals. Luckily, we are to join this awesome and supportive community!

    You, as you naturally are = perfect :slight_smile:

    Spread the love!
