Hello,
I'm really struggling being gay. Like, I'm not very good at it lol. I've been "actively" gay for a little less than a year. Before that I was literally living with some monks. Anyways, I tried posting an introduction post before and it was probably too long.
I also moved to a new city (in a more accepting part of the country), that has definitely helped. However, I struggle with social anxiety. Partly bc I'm gay. I used to make all my friends through Church. I'm scared that people won't like me for who I am. Like, I don't want to go to the local LGBT center bc all I used to do was talk religion and politics w/ my friends. Now I'm a lot less sure of myself. I know I'm an interesting person, but I'm worried that I'm not relatable.
Anyways, I don't want to run the risk of this being too long as well. I'm joining here in the hopes that y'all can help me be gay. Like, meeting people, working up the courage to go to a gay bar. I'm also a noob when it comes to relationships. I'm 25 with the relationship experience of like a budding 16 or 15 year old.
So, that's some back story on me. Hoping to find some support here!
