    ...I joined EC. I never thought my life would change as much as it has in that time period. I had my first girlfriend and I was desperately seeking fellow kin, as I felt very lost and lonely. Five days after joining, I came out to my parents and sister, on Easter.

    Their reactions weren't the greatest, but I have never felt better. It felt so good to live honestly and not have anything to hide or constantly worry about in the back of my mind.

    Anyway, I guess this is my anniversary post. I just wanted to thank everyone here on EC. I know I wouldn't feel as confident in myself or hold the views that being gay is ok, without EC. I don't know all of you, but I hope to meet more of you, than those members I have talked to so far. Thanks again. :icon_bigg
