    Hey everyone!

    A little bit about me:

    - Out to everyone but my parents
    - Currently a lifeguard but starting paramedic training soon (at Coventry University, UK)
    - Very sporty and love a good laugh

    A few reasons why I am not out to my parents:

    - My dad scares the shit out of me. He is very anti LGBT and I do not know how he would react
    - My relationship with my parents is very fragile
    - I dont have a very good support network as my closest friends are gay and dont understand how hard this sort of thing is.

    A few reasons why I joined Empty Closets:

    - Get some advice on coming out
    - Make some friends
    - Have a laugh


    So thats me! :icon_bigg

    Welcome Sweets! I hope you feel comfy here, sit down and have a cup while you divulge your every secret to us... Or, that, in a less than creepy way. :wink:

    Well howdy! Dads are definitely the hardest to tell (in my experience), but they can surprise you (also in my experience). Welcome to EC!
