    Hi, I'm Pikachu181!

    So, were to begin... well, I've recently come to accept the fact that I'm a lesbian, though I've thought about it for over a year. It's been a pretty hard decision for me. My parents and siblings are homophobic while my friends think that liking someone of the same sex is disgusting. I grew up believing that being a homosexual was a sin and that if I became one then I was going to hell.

    I noticed last year that I didn't really like guys anymore, but instead was starting to think about girls more often. It scared me a lot, and I tried to stop, but I never really did. Now that I've been starting to accept it I have been looking for a place where I could talk to those like me, especially without judgement. I decided here was a good site to start with!

    I can't wait to start talking to you guys! (!)

    Hey there! Welcome to EC.
    It sucks to know that people around you are homophobic- I know that feel. But you'll be accepted here! (*hug*)
