So I've been a member for a while now, just sort of lurking around. Not to sound like a creep though, haha. So I'm kind of nervous about starting to be active around here. I get anxious about little things like that. I'm not exactly open about a lot of stuff in my life, but it seems like it might be easier with strangers. It takes some time for me to warm up to people, but from what I've seen the people here give excellent advice and support. Anyways, about me: I'm 20 years old, I am from the US, but live in Europe right now, at least until summer. I'm a junior in college studying architecture. Just the workload in the major makes it a rough life, haha. I'm really passionate about music. If you ever want to get me talking about something, it's that topic. I could talk forever about it, haha. I'm also into cars, being outside, European soccer, photography, traveling, architecture, urban planning, and making computer graphics. I'm not really sure who I am though, or where I'm going in life. Since puberty I've been kind of confused about who I'm attracted to. I always thought I'd be able to just turn off certain feelings when it was time for me to have a wife and kids. I've come to realize that no matter how hard I repress my thoughts and memories, the fact is going to remain that I'm attracted to guys. I'm not completely comfortable with that yet. But I guess that's why I'm here posting. I'm not out to anyone, but I've never had a girlfriend so I'm sure some people have suspicions at least cuz of that. But I'm tired of being lonely and depressed, and need a little happiness in my life, so I think here is a good starting point.
