    Hey, it's nice to meet you all.

    So I guess I just really want to be able to talk about some of the feelings I've had, which I've kind of repressed and which I don't really have anyone to talk to in real life. I'm a guy and I guess I was always aware that I wanted to have a deep emotional, basically romantic kind of connection with another guy, and when I hit puberty I felt physical attraction too, as well as towards girls but a lot less so. In present day, I've told my parents and my friends that I'm bisexual, which is technically true, but the fact of me liking girls has always been something I used like a social buffer about me having feelings towards guys, and I'm still kind of nervous and not-really-secure about how I truly feel more deeply about guys in general. So that's my story, sorry for the wall of text.

    Just to say something about me, I'm a physics student in college and I like writing and rock/metal music and video games like Metroid and Pokemon. So hi :icon_bigg

    Hi Everlong11. Welcome to EC. I am new here too.

    I can relate to a lot of what you have shared, having just come out to a few of my closest friends just in the art few days. We are all on an exciting journey!

    Take care.

    Sam
