    Hey I'm purplewolf6. Kory works too lol. Most of my life I've considered myself heterosexual but I started questioning 2 years ago when I saw a customer at my old job. Felt like I had butterflies in my stomach and I had to be honest with myself that something else was there for me outside of just attraction to the opposite gender. Funny a month before that I found out I was attracted to trans women as well.


    I first told my shift leader then who I remembered previously that said he work with LGBT support groups so I felt comfortable. As soon as I mustered more confidence I told another co-employee. Feb of '15 came and my sister joked about me dating. I told her I didn't have a preference which caught her by surprise but she was/is supportive. She wanted me to tell Mom for myself which I did and she basically said, "I want you to be happy. You're still my son." My mom and sister are religious but I'm glad they can still love me seeing past my orientation and atheism.


    A week ago I told my best friend of at least 16 yrs and he was kinda surprised but didn't mind. Remember he said that there was a gay(male/male) couple playing basketball at a gym he went to. He told me they said he was the most supportive stranger they met which was great Im proud of him for that.


    Well, I hope to interact with many people here and spread positivity. Thanks for reading:smilewave
