    I guess i mean accepting that i'm on this journey. I had the thoughts as far back as i can remember but just pushed them away, I went along with others who expressed there biases and figured the thoughts were normal. Then i thought it was just a sexual thing, thanks for the great memories craigslist, lol. I've recently begun coming to terms with who i am and what i want from life, i'm still not 100% comfortable with myself. I've recently started talking with a great guy who is sweet and very
    supportive, he's been out for a few years and seeing how comfortable he is being himself, makes me a little jealous actually. Any advice or help anybody can give is greatly appreciated

    It takes time to admit your gay, it takes courage and guts as well, its took me nearly six years to become comfortable with being a lesbian and in that time (the end of last year) i told two friends they are very supportive of me, my parents and a lot of my family are homophobic , i told my mum and....welll...lets just say we aren't talking. But even so it gets to be easier in time, anyway welcome to EC we're all here for ya

    Coming to terms with yourself is definitely the first step to feeling better about yourself. I remember when I first came to terms with being transgender that it was really awkward to start freely thinking as a woman, but once you get comfortable, life is sooooo much better. Welcome to EC sweetie!:slight_smile:

    Welcome to EC! :icon_bigg

    I understand how awkward and weird it is to come to terms with your sexuality. I wish you the best of luck and a grand journey.
