    Hi people! I've been in the closet for 23 years and have been out for 5 months now. I'd like to share with you how i feel about it. I feel free. Like i can finally be myself without carring of looking like normal/straight. And that's really enjoyable =). I am not judging everyone in the street on what they look like anymore. Accepting myself helped a lot accepting people around. I'm so much more honnest with people now. I don't feel ashamed all the time anymore. I feel like i'm going in a bright new adventure! And i'm happy to be part of that huge community.

    Additionnaly, i got some "side effects" : I feel like I can really judge the temperament of people (mainly girls) just by meeting them and that tells me who i want to go to. As so, I really like to be with girls now, it feels like there can be real friendship and that's soooo good. And a last one: I need to touch people, all the time. Are those "side effects" common to some men out?

    Bonjour monsieur!
    Que je dois dire que c’est un plaisir de faire votre rencontre!
    Are you free as a bird? If so, I’m very happy for you.
    A bright new adventure? Now that sounds like fun. I hope we can be a part of this adventure that is now your life!
    The touching thing might just be an after-shock of coming out. Sort of like when you hear some great news. I’m sure you’ll come back down to Earth soon enough.
    But whilst you’re up there, enjoy it!

    I'd quite like to touch some people too, Touchy! Not necessarily in a sexual way, either; right now I could really use a hug.
