  1. Hi everyone. I found this forum many months ago, but only recently took the time to finally set up an account. I have known that I was gay my whole life, but it was always something that I kept at the back of my mind and didn't acknowledge. I admitted it to myself and an acquaintance last year. I was living in another state and this guy I worked with said hi to me one day and we started chatting a little every time we saw each other. I had to move back to my hometown in another state a few months later. I said bye to my friend and asked if he had a facebook. When I was back in my hometown, I checked out his profile and it said he was gay. I texted him about it and he told me it was true. A day later I worked up the courage to tell not only him, but myself, that I was gay. It was the hardest thing I had ever done. He told me he knew I was. He didn't have a reason, he just thought that I was. I should have known he was though, because he always brought up gay-related topics whenever we spoke, as though he wanted me to admit that I was or something. I will always keep in contact with him, even though I feel we don't have much in common besides our orientation. Hopefully I will meet people who have alot of commonality with me at some point, because I've never been good at making friends or even things like making small talk, but signing up here will hopefully help with that. But anyway, I like the site so far and it's nice meeting all of you!
