This is a whole new experience for me and I'm very nervous but I am a closeted NPHC frat guy who still is trying to figure things (sexuality). So I'm hope to figure things out as I read different forums and such to gain clarity and figure out who I am.
National Pan-Hellenic Council is what it means. A set of nine African American founded greek letter organizations.
I am still confused. But I avoid college like the plague. Does that refer to like, crazy greek letters or is there an ideal behind it? Also, hi!
Yea it is a way to identify a set of greek-lettered organizations founded by African Americans in college. But yea just something apart of the whole college experience.
Hello Blue20 and welcome to EC I'm new here myself so I'm still figuring it out. Maybe the time spent here will offer you hope and a fresh perspective on life.
So has anyone on this thread came out to their parents? How did your parents take it? My parents keep hinting at it. Asking me "why I'm not bringing anyone home from college" or "what am I waiting for."
Welcome to the AMAZING EC :smilewave It's a terrific place to ask questions and to explore who you are :icon_bigg
HA! No I haven't yet but I get this all the time. Not just from my parents but from family and friends too, always asking me about girls and why I haven't had a girlfriend in years. Honestly it's a wonder nobody has figured out I'm gay yet. I'll get back to you when I've told my parents which I plan to do soon, if I can just stop being such a pussy...
Yea man I'm in the same boat. My southern baptist family would crucify me:bang:. Not to mention the rest of my friends and frat bros in college. That would be college suicide. Just got to find the right time...am I right? :dry:
That sounds pretty rough mate. Thing is I think my family would actually be very accepting but it still seems impossible to tell them, I don't envy people with homophobic parents and friends. Good luck anyway man.
Nice to meet you. I'm in the same boat. I have told a few friends that I knew would be accepting, but no one else. My brother and sister are very religious so this will be hard for them. My daughters are awesome but I'm not ready to tell them, either. This is only my 2nd day here, but welcome, it seems like a great place so far.
I think the hardest part for me in trying to figure this out is that I don't know what my life will be like. Terrifying...
Yeah man, I mean it's the safe option to stay in the closet but it isn't much fun. Things will be quite different when I come out though, hopefully for the better but yeah it's scary.
