    Hi,

    My name is Justin. I live in Georgia. I'm in college and I'm finally willing to admit to myself that I've been gay for as long as I can remember. But still I'm not comfortable in my own skin yet. I feel like I've been lying to myself and everyone I know my whole life. I've told 4 of my closest (straight) male friends. They're all okay with it but I'm afraid to be denied by many of my Christian friends. (I feel like this could be a problem for many guys wanting to come out in the South... ?)

    Anyway, I'm new to the whole LGBT-scene. I'm looking for support, advice, and just curious about other people going through similar things.

    :grin:,
    Justin
