    Welcome to EC. Why do you say you can’t come out?

    Yeah, why? Each situation is different, I can't give the same advice to everybody...

    And welcome!

    Hi josh and welcome. Unfortunately sometimes coming out to the people you know I’m real life isn’t the best idea and that’s okay. Do you find a safe place — like here on EC, for example — where you can be authentically you. And you kinda have to make do with that for a while. But eventually, your real-world situation changes and you don’t have to worry about coming out anymore. Until then, be authentically you here and wherever else you can do so safely.

    But I warn you. Being authentic is addicting.

    Hello.

    As others have said, each situation is different, so we might need more details.

    Welcome to EC.
