    This might not be worth a thread of its own, but I decided to indulge my inner craving for attention for once... :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    As another user brought to my attention today, and as a quick check of my own profile confirms, this day marks the second year I've spent on EC, and by extension, the second year I have been out! :eek:

    Reading back, it doesn't seem like all that long since I decided to join up, post one story of my coming out (after a long career of lurking as a non-member) and moving on again.

    As you can see, the moving on from EC never materialised :icon_wink, but I'm glad I stayed. Without all of you guys I could have never come out to my mom and brother, let alone to my colleagues or some other friends. And I made a couple of friends that I talk to almost every day that I would have never met were it not for this place. Even though I have been busy with work and family matters over the last few months, I always felt like checking on EC was one of the lynchpins of my day.

    I can't buy you all drinks to celebrate, but I do want to say thank you all for making such a difference in my life over the last two years! :thumbsup:
