    I’ve known for years I was attracted to other males but I could never admit it to myself or others, despite the occasional accusation growing up I’ve never said to myself that I’m gay.

    The few girls I did have crushes on were usually gay or bisexual themselves and the few girls who did show interest in me were gay or bisexual themselves. As I got older I found myself forcing crushes on girls who again were without me knowing were gay or bisexual.

    I’m finding my myself more comfortable with the idea of being intimate with another man as I always have and remember the sometimes awkward feelings in the pit of my stomach.

    For the first time I’m saying to myself that I’m gay.

    it's great to be able to come out and actually the words "I'm Gay". I know for me when I actually said the words it was to my Step-father and it was a huge step for me.

    You should be proud of yourself for taking this step; it's oftentimes difficult to do, so that you are doing so now is great!

    May the rest of your coming out journey be a pleasant one. :slight_smile:
