Very interesting responses, Chuck! :D
I always love reading responses to questionnaires! I'm just naturally nosey, I guess! ::) ;) :laugh:
Seriously, I was particularly interested to read your response to "Do something you fear." Can you actually remember the exact day you came out? That's amazing! And it was something you feared doing?
Chuck, could I tempt you to tell us more details about that fateful day in 1997?
I ask, because my experience of coming out appears to be very different to your own. I was always a "delicate" (aren't euphemisms wonderful things?! ;) ) kinda kid, so I guess I never really had to come out, as such. People seemed to just know, without me having to spell it out. :-\
The first person I formally told was my Mum. I was in my mid-teens. Hadn't yet consummated my fantasies, but was concerned about them and wanted to ask my Mum's advice. We were always close. I remember asking, "Should I see a psychiatrist?" She responded, quick as a flash, "Why, you're not mentally ill, are you?"
Would be interested to read of your coming out experience, Chuck. :)

I would be happy to share that story.
Do you want me to post here, or is there a more appropriate thread where it should go?

Chuck, I've just located the lovely conversation between you and Lee at the Coming Out thread. I have friends in the same situation as Lee (one, my ex partner of 15 years) and my heart really goes out to him.

Hiya Kerry! Glad you found that. I forgot I put it here. lmao
Between the 400+ posts here, and 32,000+ on DCF, I lose track of what I post where!
