    You can look around the forums on EC and find threads the might be relevant to you. You can post your own comments on those threads. And if/when you feel ready, you can start your own thread(s) in an appropriate forum to let us know your specific issues/concerns/questions.

    Hey chef! Start with he easy stuff. If it's hard, no need to say it all at once, or to articulate it perfectly. This place is safe and anonymous. It probably took courage just to introduce yourself.

    14 years working in kitchens here. I'd be happy to swap stories and talk if you want to post on my wall. Take care bud.

    Hey Preston. I'm Cam. Welcome to EC.

    The people here are friendly and supportive and it's a great place to discover who you are in a safe and accepting environment.

    The members are lovely and are from the whole rainbow spectrum. There is a wide range of ages and experiences.

    Hiya and don't worry about figuring it out all at once like how @ARB mentioned. I believe you'll find what you're looking. Don't give up :3

    Hey Preston, welcome to EC. Just post around a little, maybe play a few games, relax. People are quite possibly the friendliest on earth here.

    Peace, hugs, cake, blessings, hope and awesomeness.

    Hey Preston,

    Can you try to give us some background? You don't have to be specific about things like names or where you are or stuff like that, but try to help us understand anything relevant to your specific situation that we might be able to help you with.

    There are a lot of good people on this website who have been in situations similar to yours. Talk to us. We can't solve your problems/issues for you, but we can give you perspective, talk to you about our own experiences, and perhaps give you some solid things to think about and consider.

    Coming Out can be an intensely difficult proposition, depending on your personal situation.

    Crushing on a guy that doesn't even have a clue that you exist, let alone one whom you don't have any idea if he might like you back in 'that way', can also be extremely hard.

    But rest assured that you are not the first person to go through these challenges in life and there are many people here who can relate to what you are experiencing and are anxious to talk to you about it.:slight_smile:
