Welcome to EC! EC is a friendly and supportive place. Take a look around the main forum and post where you feel would be most appropriate. If they can relate to your situation, people here are very willing to advise and insight.
Hello! Welcome to EC! I have no doubt that you'll find people willing to chat and offer advice. It's been a rather friendly and helpful place, in my experience. Also, don't worry about seeming rude by not wanting to put information about you on the internet. It's actually a very good idea to be careful with your information on the internet, no matter what site you're on. Anyone who thinks that protecting your information while online is rude is a person you probably don't want to be talking with anyway. Again, welcome to EC!
Hi @cryptillix and welcome! As others have already said, EC is filled with plenty of helpful and friendly people who have had similar experiences. Also, maybe checking out the Sexual Orientation section would be a good place to start. Like BlueNeon said, don’t think that not sharing personal information (either online or in real life) is rude. It’s good to be careful about sharing your personal information, especially online. Anyway, I hope you have a great experience on here! Just let me know if you want to talk.
hi! yeah,,, so its kind of weird? i recently realized that i liked girls almost exclusively, along with some people who identify as nonbinary! some of the people i was close friends with i now realize i think that i wanted more with, despite believing i was straight i used to kiss my friends and i knew i thought they were cute but i brushed it aside i used to want to cuddle them/have them cuddle me despite the fact that i HATE being touched usually i was pretty obsessive over them too and i was constantly telling everyone how cute they were in fact i snuck off with one of them while we were at church so we could go cuddle behind a couch in a different room? thats sound pretty gay to me idk im constantly confusing the way i feel when i get uncomfortable/anxious around dudes with me liking them (even though i know i dont) because ive never gotten a legitimate crush on a dude idk what im asking for i think i want some feedback ig
I totally understand that. I have this weird thing with my friends where we have like a family tree or something and my straight friend is my "wife" and i hug her and kiss her on the cheek. It's gotten to the point where if you aren't in our group of friends you'd think we're lovers. I totally accidentaly have called her my girlfriend many times just because I'm so used to the idea of it and if i could, i would date her. As for the thing about guys, maybe it could be that you might just like the idea of you liking them? That's something I've heard a lot from people that are questioning. Hope my response was helpful !!
Hey, cryptillix. I’m the same way I always feel like I’m lying about how I feel about girls, but it takes time and I’m just trying not to rush it. Anyway welcome to EC, and if you ever need someone to talk to you can always talk to me
Yeah I can relate to being stressed. I was hesitant about writing my location, pronouns and and stuff let alone saying anything personal. I feel bad about lying myself. Just today a guy at work asked me if I had a boyfriend. I said I wasn’t interested at the moment and that I’m just trying to build up my hours. It’s just a part of life unfortunately. It’s something I’m trying to change though because I’m sick of bending the truth and changing the subject. Also it’s awkward.
I can relate to you completely. Sometimes I feel like I’m just tryna force a part of the LGBTQ+ community, and other times I feel like the biggest lesbian around.
