    I'm a little bad at talking to people (over the internet and anywhere, really) but, I just wanted to say, "Hi". I just created an account earlier today, and I have a feeling I'll like it because I get to meet people like me, who love the same gender.

    Before I joined the site, then I thought and felt as if I was alone in the world, that I was overwhelmed by people who despise people like me because of a book (i.e. the Bible), and various other reasons. But I'm hoping once I join a school again (I home school) then hopefully I'll meet a person that I like.

    I wish that people were more understanding. I read this bizarre question asked on Yahoo Answers asking if there was a way to make his son straight again. He said all these mean things about him, like he won't support his son in going to college, and that he'll throw him out as soon as he's eighteen, and it just scared me. But it got me thinking, what if my parents did that also? That's the main reason why I'm keeping my mouth shut for the time being.

    Anyway, I was suggested the idea of posting something here so, I just wanted to say, "Hi!"

    Hello! I'm new too :slight_smile: I think you'll like it here!

    Two things... Yahoo Answers is pretty much just a home for trolls (so pay that idiot nooo mind!) and if you want to talk, feel free to message me :slight_smile: I'm working on this whole "coming out" thing myself and surviving it :slight_smile:

    Just a reminder: You two have to be full members to message each other. You can post on anyone's wall though (provided that they didn't close their walls).

    And welcome. :grin:
