    Obviously a new member haha honeslty I'm new to this whole forum thing in general. Not usually my type of thing but hey its a place where I can talk to people without my friends or family noticing. Coming out is proving to be pretty hard and I just hope this somehow helps. Im at the point where I've told only one person, and I want to tell more, but its hard to tell even my parents :/

    Anyways I know this wont be an overnight thing but I guess I'm hoping this site can help me find friends or people like me that will make this a lot easier.

    I grew up with forums but they're becoming a pretty rare thing these days, aren't they? Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it! Well... you've already partially got the hang of it, because you've posted a new thread and that went okay. :lol:

    Welcome to the forum! :slight_smile: Take a look around, browse through the different threads - check out the Coming Out Advice sub-forum too. Pretty much all of us are either in the same position of you, or have been in the same situation - so you're not alone. Most of all, don't be afraid to join in!
