    Hey, I discovered this forum yesterday, and went through almost every "coming out" post...
    I am so happy that I found this forum, ,because I need to talk to someone about how I feel now. No one in my social circle knows.

    I hope I will get along with someone in here, and that I can talk to someone who has the same problems as me. :help:

    Either way, I am 15 years old, I don't have a lot of friends, but those I have are very close to me, though they don't know about THAT. Yet.

    And I like to play volleyball :icon_bigg

    Hi :slight_smile: Welcome to the forum.

    How do you think people would react if you came out to them?

    Thanks :slight_smile:

    I don't really know, my dad would probably be very silent, and my mom, I don't know. (my family is not religious in any way) I also don't know about my sis.

    But my friends. I know my girl-friends wouldn't have a problem, they already suspect someone else from my class to be gay, though I don't think they are right. They also would want a "gay friend" but I am definitely not the shopping type, more the talking type.

    My guy friends, on the other hand. I think some of them would become afraid of me having a crush on them, but that isn't the case. I heard a guy from my class say that gays were something "unnatural" and that really got my hopes down.

    Heyo, welcome to EC!
    I think it's really strange that you heard that guy say that. I would have thought in a country as homo-friendly as Denmark everyone would be more tolerant and informed.

    Copenhagen, like any representative democratic city, has population with a wide variety of income levels. There is always a conservative working class element in all such cities. To think that everyone is liberal in any given city is a huge mistake to make.

    Thank you also!

    Heh, I know. Denmark is a very tolerant country when it comes to sexual orientation. I guess he is just a miss. He just said that thinking of two men holding hands is enough to make him get the "im going to throw up" feeling (don't know it in English), and that it shouldn't be allowed. But anyways, yeah, you're right.

    Welcome to EC! :slight_smile:

    I think you are bound to find someone who you can relate to. Its actually kind of freaky how similar some people's stories can be. Hope you like it here :slight_smile:
