Fortunately, the kid I went to dinner with was very talkative, so I didn't have to say much. I just nodded and pumped out the animated facial expressions all night long. It really was a stunning performance.

An interesting discussion about GM
I was first introduced to blogging by one of my professors during Winter Semester 2004. I didn't really understand it then, and I'm not sure I do today. However, I have learned that a blog can basically be anything you want it to be. With that in mind, I have created this blog as a way to describe my little conflict. Here's my problem: I'm gay and I'm Mormon. If you don't know already, the two don't mix very well. Though very few people will likely ever read this blog, I plan to use it as a way to describe my struggles, figure out my emotions, and work to overcome my problems.
To begin, I was born and raised in Utah. I'm the youngest in my family, and I have to admit that being the youngest is the best. I graduated from Brigham Young University in 2005. I'm currently working a great job in a great area. (How's that for vague?) I don't have any special talents, but I do enjoy singing -- though I don't do it well. I'm also a fan of politics -- conservative. I know, it's ironic that I'm conservative and a homosexual. Anyhow, if you have questions about me, just ask.

Congrats! That is amazing. I am not surprised but yet I am. It's good to know that you are feeling so good about it. The most important thing is that you are finding friends. You have a really great chance to meet people who can help you express yourself the way that might be what you need. I can't wait to hear about your other experiences. "All good things ahead."
Just remember that dating guys shouldn't be much different than dating girls... and finding someone that will support your participation in the Church means that you should probably stick to dating good mormon guys (who happen to be gay).
Just my two cents.
You've probably already thought this and I'm probably wasting my time typing this. Anyway, I think its important you make friends first before you possibly have a boyfriend.
I've been in the situation where I had a boyfriend before friends. His friends became my friends and I thought everything was great. Needless to say, I lost the friends when we broke up. Don't make the same mistake (especially in a new city!).
Call it whatever you want, whatever you feel most comfortable with.
I think the more comfortable you get with yourself the more of your true personality will come across. Since I've stopped worrying about being gay and keeping it a secret I've been able to really develop and enjoy parts of myself completely unrelated to to being gay.
stupid question: how do you make friendsd off myspace? especially mormon ones?
