This is super depressing

[Next step]

Reading through the posts on here and these stories are VERY depressing . It seems everyone is getting rejected or waiting to be. This is my biggest fear - that the fear of rejection will take over my life . Please tell me this is not the case and dating and acceptance is possible. ( I've read the success stories but now they seem to be more the exception )

I just signed back in to his forum after not being on the site for almost 5 years. I wanted to read my success story for a reminder and a little added encouragement. I have recently met a man and we have really hit it off. I think we’re getting to the point when we need to discuss it. 

 

I will say I was absolutely terrified to disclose to my boyfriend (5ish years ago). There’s a whole thread on here somewhere of people encouraging me and giving me pep talks. When I finally did, It couldn’t have gone better. He was so understanding, and was ok w/ it. We were together for 3 years. H had nothing to do w/ our breakup.
