    Hi everyone!

    So I'm trying this thing where I'm being more honest with myself and more open with other people, and I feel like my sexuality is something I'm not really comfortable discussing with any of my close friends (let alone my family) just yet. I am pretty sure I am something other than straight. I've been in a couple of relationships with men, and I have had some chemistry with men, but not as frequently as I do with women. I haven't really explored those feelings with women because I've been scared to admit to myself that I'm even having them. I have relatives who are gay, and several close friends who are gay, so it's not that I'm super afraid of not being accepted...but I kind of am, mostly because I'm having trouble accepting myself. I want to stop lying to myself because I'm unhappy, and at this point, the pursuit of happiness is starting to trump the fear of judgment. Anyways, hi everyone! Y'all seem like nice people!

    Accepting yourself can be a timetaking process which woun't necessaŕily be easy. But it seems that you're making fine progres :slight_smile: if you have anything to ask about the forums, and just overall feel free to ask. People 'round here tend the most helpfull and supportive people in the whole internet.
