    Hey everyone, my name's David. I'm 18 and I've only recently come out as gay. I haven't really told my family, but I have to almost everyone else. I've been having a really hard time accepting myself as I am and accepting my sexuality. I don't really know where to begin, as I live in a small town, and there's not much here when it comes to the gay community. I'm hoping to meet some new friends on this site. :slight_smile:

    David! Don't worry man there are lots of you villagers round here! I swear in small towns there must be more gays there than in big cities! No, seriously tons of people round here who can relate with you on your lack of community resources and how to cope with that reality but I'm not one of them! Keep in mind being young that you may not always want or need to live in such a small city and that there are choices for you in the future e.g. college/university, trade school, job prospects, relocations, travel, visiting, etc down the way. You are still young man just so young to see so much left to do!


    good to see you here,
    Peter
