    I finally wanted to join and say hi for once, because even though I've never posted, I have used these forums to help me come out and realize who I am. You guys are really helpful because without you, I probably would have never been able to come to terms with myself, or be comfortable with my sexuality.

    I came to these forums in search of coming out stories to give me support, and once I saw how much everyone helped with several other issues, I decided I needed to stick around.

    Now, I have come out to my mom, one of my older brothers, and 2 friends.

    So... Thanks!
