Hey everyone, new to this forum, but not to forums themselves. I'm a 24 year old, chapstick femme, out-of-the-closet gay girl (I rarely refer to myself as a lesbian) with one of those awful "that doesn't really happen to people, right?" coming out stories, and a lot to share. I'm pretty open and definitely ready to talk with some other gay people to give and get some advice I wouldn't otherwise be able to hear. I just moved back to the midwest and left all (and I do mean ALL) of my gay friends behind, and their thoughts and opinions are some of the ones I valued most. I found this website while actually googling something pretty silly, ah, another story for another time! I have a pretty dry sense of humor, fair warning... I'm not trying to be mean, I just have awful people skills through text!
