- HI!
-
- Oooops, I mean Hi. I realize that I am doing this when some people
- are away. Not on purpose, you understand...just coincidence...really.
- I am kinda shy, though...I thought I would peek in and say that I've
- been lurking since June, or thereabouts, oh yeah, this is also the
- first time I've read the list down to zero postings!
-
- (Hi Ciaran...I did it...all bi myself =-). Thanks for the encouragement!).
- I've enjoyed reading all of you, and even sent mail to some...
-
- <GENERALIZATION ON> This was the first place I found, where there were
- people who were talking about topics in which I had no experience.
- You let me camp out and watch you play and fight and make up. You let
- me see you as people who questioned, people who sometimes were and
- sometimes weren't comfortable with who you are.<GENERALIZATION OFF>
-
- I've needed to know that you were there. Even if I didn't have the
- courage to post myself yet, other people asked the questions for me.
- You gave me the courage to actually acknowledge that: I *might* be bi,
- I *think* I'm bi, I *am* bi. You gave me the courage to start coming
- out to people: friends, aunts, parents, then sibs. I wrote some
- private e-mail to people. I joined a mailing list. I sent mail to
- ECBN. I actually met some other bi people =-0 ! I am starting my
- network. Thanks!
-
- It was thanks to you that I got to overhear my (extremely, very, etc.
- conservative) brother say to my mother that I have better taste in
- women than in men <giggle>.
-
- Oh, hugs would be welcome...if you are so inclined...
