What's up everyone? I'm Chris, 18 and joined the site in hopes of making friends like myself. I'm not out to many so I hope that making friends on here will help me get more confident at telling others who I am. Thanks for the welcoming and introductions in advance.
This is a really great place to "test the waters." Welcome to EC. My name is Mike and I'm one of the advisors. Feel free to send me a Private Message or write on my wall if you'd like to talk. And in terms of beginning to come out you are way ahead of me. I started at 46. :icon_redf Peace, Mike
Thanks, Mike. I'm pretty much sure that I am gay and it's starting to show a bit more (naturally). I've completed my first year of college (Environmental Science major) and received the 'looks' by guys rather recently that may be interested in me but I was (or were? Not sure about the tense) sure about what to say or how to say it. I'm about as out to the world as the depths of a cave but there's the turtle that wants to escape.
Not yet, haha. I'm a big fan of their company and what they do for our community with LOGO is good. Thanks for the welcoming. Lostinthought is an interesting name. I'm from Louisiana as well, btw.
Hi Chris, and welcome to Empty Closets! EC is a great place to get to know people and to become more comfortable with yourself and confident in coming out further. Congrats on your journey thus far. Hope you will enjoy your visits!
Hi Chris, and welcome to EC! Just being out, even if it's on an online forum can do wonders for finding your own courage. (I was planning to come out to two people, ever, before I joined. Now I'm out to most people I know...) Just post around and read threads, and I'm sure you'll make some friends!
Hi Chris and welcome to EC I hope being around here will help you to feel more confident and comfortable with yourself. Makes yourself at home and see you around
Thanks for the introductions. The section of the site that talks about the news in our community has been extremely informative; (i.e when the guy wore a dress for prom and won prom king). Reading about the news and making friends on here are two reasons worth staying with the site. :eusa_clap
Hi I hope you enjoy your time here. I'm a new member as well and I'm testing the waters. I'm getting ready to come out and reading the stories is helping me prepare, so I hope it helps you as well.
Thanks again for the introductions, looking forward to asking a few good questions in the forums to see what you guys think. Just have to think of them first. :help:
