Coming Out Rebound

Did anyone else dive headfirst into the dating/sex scene when they came out? I did, but I don't really feel like it was a meaningful expression of my sexuality or intimacy. I was so eager to do anything with another man that I forgot to take it slow and do what felt right. In my case, it was kind of one of those mistakes that you have to make yourself in order to really learn from it and about it.

Everybody have a great Thanksgiving!

Send me a message or whatever if you'd like to hear more about a certain topic or what have you, I would LOVE to oblige!

Be good to yourselves. :D

yeah totally agree with u Dark0blivion. hey NotBadConrad could u tell when u came out, i mean how old were u? i came out when i was 16 so i was pretty inexperienced and curious. i guess that counts as reason too.

I was 21. So I was very eager to get with a guy, ha ha. I was taking a lot credits that year so I never got too crazy though. Thanks for the comment!

"leading someone on" is how every relationship ends. one person realizes it's done before the other, the inbetween time is the "leading someone on" part, right? its not dishonest. dishonest is when its over before it begins and it continues anyway because you just enjoy what the other person gives you. going slow or fast isnt going to change that or would it? don't spend any time on regret beyond the lesson learnt, hope you feel better soon, and happy thanksgiving :)

Good topic. I came out to myself when I was 22 but only now at the age of 30 am I taking steps to tell my family/friends (it's a rather sordid tale). I can already feel the urge you speak about to immediately find a relationship after fully coming out. I guess it's natural given how most of us have spent large amounts of time depriving ourselves.

hey there. i wanted to say that the same thing happened to me. its not exactly the same but as soon as i came out i started having sex with every cute guy i found and i had a three way as my second sexual experience... i was just rushing so much for months until i found a guy i really liked. ive never been with a woman though i guess my reason was lack of experience but i learned with my mistakes of course, and its a lot harder in here since a live in portugal. thanks for ur video*
