    Hi, everyone!

    My name is Rob. I'm 23 and from New Jersey.

    I signed up here for support and to make new friends. I'm out to only a few people (with very mixed reactions) and not out at all with my family. I do fear rejection, which is why I keep it to myself.

    A little more about myself...I'm currently an English teacher (here in the US, but came back from Japan after an 18 month stay). I love trave and foreign languages. I can't wait to get to know some cool new people!:icon_bigg

    Welcome to EC from Jim in Toronto. This is an awesome place to interact with other gays and lesbians and get more comfortable with the whole 'concept'.

    Hi Rob and Welcome to emtpy closets(!) (!)

    Aw, only if you singed up here when you are in Japan we could have meet:bang: Well, only if we got along though:lol: So yes, I am living in Japan!! Well, because I'm Japanese but I was living in Alabama for few years. Anyways, hopefully you are not one of those NOVA teachers who had to go back to their countries:slight_smile:
    18 months...so you are pretty good at Japanese huh? There are a lot of people who is studying Japanese here...and they are much better than me:eusa_doh:

    Welcome to EC Rob. you will find the environment a tad bit comfortable to get around but beware of some of EC hypocrites. =))
    overall here is ok and i would just like you to know i fear the same thing. but most importantly i know my mother is homophobic so i am sacred to death of being disowned. PM me if u wanna talk about it.

    Welcome, Rob! I hope you find some useful advice and embrace the support we offer here at EC, as it sounds like you're in need of some :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:


    Please disregard this comment, there was no need for it, nor have I ever thought negatively of anyone on this forum.
