    Hello everyone!

    I'm a 25 year old female from the United Kingdom! I’ve recently come out as a lesbian to my parents and it didn’t go amazingly well (although it could of been worse) so here to hopefully get some advice and hopefully give some in return.

    I'm a bit of an animal geek, love books and snowboarding...

    Not sure what else to say!

    Nice to meet you all!

    Hi there, and welcome to the community! I'm sorry to hear that your coming out didn't go so well, but hopefully your parents will come around.

    EC is a great place to ask for support, and seek suggestions/advice on how to move forward. I'm sure you will receive some suggestions that will be of help to you.

    Welcome aboard. :slight_smile:
