    Not really good at these introduction things, lol but what the hell, here we go.

    I'm a 26 year old guy, who is finally accepting the fact that he is gay. A little background: since Graduatin high school I had feeling for guys, but really pushed it aside and tried to be as straight as I humanly could. When I was about 22, a really close high school friend who I had not seen since we graduated came home one year and pretty much told everyone he knew he was gay (including me). I figured that was the best time to tell someone that I was bisexual (what I thought at the time). Turned out to be a good thing. We became close, he introduced me to a few gay people, brought me to my first gay club and ect. After a while it was bothering me that i was lying to my friends about why it was i never had a girlfriend and all the straight talk and stuff, just felt phony. So one drunken night (Feb) i told my best friend that i was gay and as nerve racking as it was, it was also the biggest relief. Since then I've come out to a few friends who have been very supportive and awesome about it.

    So I happened to come across this site one day and strolled threw as a guest and read a few stories of people's coming out and what not an thought it'll be cool to join in some chit chat. Im a big talker and I feel like my one best friend (who I practically confide everything in) is a little tired of me constantly talking to him, so now I get to unleash it all on you guys and gals!!

    Haha

    See Ya!
