Hello everyone. I've been reading some of the stories here for a while now, ever since my boyfriend, justinf, pointed this place out to me (you guys are already helpful: this is the first time ever he let me call him my boyfriend "in front of" other people -- thank you! :lol. I've experienced quite some horrible things myself years ago when I was still confused/came out etc., and I read some stories here at EC that really reminded me of what that was like for me, so I figured I might be able to offer some help. I really am looking forward to helping out as many people as I can in what seems like a great community
