    Hi all,

    I joined tonight so I wanted to say hey. This has been the best resource I have found so far so I'm going to give it a try. At this point I have no idea what the heck I am. I'm 28 and I only started to allow myself to question things recently when a friend came out to me. I spent a lot of my life trying to make myself straight so I fit in the little box everyone expected me to live in. However, I keep going back and forth about this....am I am I not....just depends on the moment you ask. Even typing this I feel ashamed. I'm trying to move forward, whatever that is. Advice is absolutly welcome :icon_bigg

    Thanks,
    Chels

    Nice to meet you, I'm in a pretty similar situation. I only just recently allowed myself to start thinking about my orientation. Good luck in getting things figured out.

    Hey welcome to EC. I also only questioned my sexuality in my mid 20's so I understand how confusing it is, but try not to put to much pressure on yourself, just let yourself explore the situation and that will then make it easier to determine what you like most.

    Hi Chels, welcome to EC!

    Well, the good thing is you're trying to move forward so all it takes is some time. Everyone has their own ways of dealing with their sexuality and some don't take long at all while others need more time.
