    Hi there,


    I'm 26, living in UK, gay and only out to a very small amount of people. I've known I was gay since before my teens, although I've lived most of my life so far with the lie that everyone thinks I'm straight. I've not been able to be myself at all, I've not had much experience with relationships, but this morning something happened which forced me to think hard about accepting who I am and lifting the 'lie'.

    I don't have many (if any) people to talk to about this so hopefully joining this forum will be the start of something good.


    Thanks! :slight_smile:

    Welcome.

    You'll see that your story is the same as many people on this forum. You can find many people to talk to who are in many different stages of the coming out process.
