I was terrified just like you. But, after I met a couple of the gurls I settled down. I felt that somehow I didn't belong. Somehow I was the only person in the world that felt the way I do. I was wrong. Once you go out there and meet someone, it gets easier and easier. I have a very good friend, Erika whom I met online. To be honest, I almost canceled our meeting but didn't and ended up having a great time. Since then, we've had some pretty cool adventures getting all dressed up and going out. She and I are good buddies now and I'm thankful for that.
We all think we are 'different' for the sake of being different. Take a look around, we're all pretty much the same. All of us on here are going to have different perspectives on this subject and we will help you understand as much as we can. But your search begins deep inside to find the reason. Only you can do that.
