    I am learning how to love myself. Because that's just a skill too, right?

    Anyway, I am 22 years old, student in university, a reader, a dreamer, a bit lazy writer, and overall pretty typical girl who physically lives in the East Europe, but mentally - on the Internet. Except, I am bisexual, and that's something that has created and still creates a lot of problems.

    I discovered my sexuality about ten years ago and then spend a lot of time and energy denying it. I happen to have a homophobic father and I live in relatively unacceptable society. Religion plays a role in this as well. Therefore, only a few months ago I came out to myself, and now I start to figure out how to live my life from this point on. I want to be out and involved in LGBT community and still have relatively good relationships with family. I also want that little voice in my head that says I will go to hell to shut a fuck up.

    I have no idea how to reach it. We'll see, I guess.
    I hope this will be a place to talk about these things and find some answers.
