Welcome to the boards. EC is a great place with great people. (psst, tell your friends :icon_wink )

 

Ditto.

And welcome, brokenheartd88!

 

Hello

Hi, Just checking in. I'm new around here. My name is Jon, and I'm a 21 year old college student. I'm going into my senior year. I study business down in Georgia, but I'm originally from New York. Right now I'm studying for my LSAT's so I can get into Law School, and working for a local charity. As for interests, I love snowboarding, skiing, swiming, travelling (I lived in Europe for 6 months of the past year!), and hanging out with my friends.

 

Hey JonB321 :smilewave:

Welcome to the boards!

 

Hey, Jon! Welcome!

 

Hello

Hello everyone. My name is Sheila and I a 23 yr old college student. I'm not a lesbian, but I have had many close friends (guys and girls) come out to me before. I've been reading your posts, even posted something myself, and I think this whole site is awesome! You guys are really courageous (sp?) and I would love to offer any support I can. Hopefully hearing some input from the recieving end will be useful. If it isn't apropriate please let me know, I understand. If you want to know more about me plz see my home page: http://foxshe.blogspot.com/
there's a link in my profile.

sincerely,
Sheila :icon_razz

 

Welcome to the forum, Sheila! It'll be nice to have a straight woman's perspective on things that come up.

 

I'm new too

Way too old, 30 - majorly receding hairline here - but the rest is still fine. I came out at 22, met my first boyfriend and married him 4 years later (in Germany where I live it is legal) and we're extremely happy together. (No, I'm not convincing myself)...

Uhm, I grew up in very conservative surroundings, but my parents have always been open minded. I had a great childhood, and many friends - many of whom I lost when I came out. It was dificult, but I know that my courage helped others, and that now, 8 years on, it was the best thing to do. So, if I can help, in any way, hey, I'm going to let my fingers do the talking as often as possible!

 

Welcome BlackCherryBLN! I've seen several of your posting already and look forward to many more.

You're still a youngster compared to me (41)! :icon_conf

 

Hey

Umm....what else? I practice karate, I play soccer, I love music and movies. My taste in music is very wide, but I particularly like rock/punk rock, and a bit of emo. Im actually bisexual, but I think im wayyy more gay than I am straight and umm yeah.

Hey!

Hi from another Aussie!

 

And another from the UK! Welcome, all!

 

Hi, I'm Malcolm. Also an older guy. I'm now 38. I live with my partner in Holland, although I spend a large amount of time in the UK (where I was born and bred).

I emptied my closet when I was 34 after 22 years of being well and truly locked inside. Needless to say, coming out was a potent experience and one that included an incredible amount of personal learning and growth.

I am looking forward to continuing that process and perhaps sharing thoughts here.

Take care all

Malcolm
