Title: Er, hey there everyone!
Post by: CaitGSith on January 01, 2014, 10:13:32 PM
Um, Hi there. Figured I may as well introduce myself. I'm Cait, I've lurked around on here for quite a while, normally when ever the dysphoria gets too much, I'm transgender (Not transitioning, or out to anyone other than friends and health people, thanks to parent's views on these things), 22, UK, awkward, and you probably won't see me here much since I'm incredibly shy, but I felt like signing up and making an introduction and stuff (Possibly just because I thought it'd be nice to be somewhere where people can actually call me Cait, instead of my birth name for a change! :-\ )

Soooo, hey there peeps!

A big warm welcome to the family! Don't worry about the shy thing, we have a habit of killing the particular thing. You will find yourself at home here in no time. This is such an amazing family. Everything you ever wanted to know is here an if it is not, just ask. Feel free to ask, vent, share and have fun. We have strong roots, sturdy branches and even a few nuts. Word of warning though, if you meet Maggie leave her chocolate alone!*Giggle* People have disappeared shortly after.  :o Here is your first "BIG HUG"!  :)

Hello there Cait, and welcome from sunny southern California.

Like Jessica said, no reason to be shy.  You are among friends here.

Join in the conversation - it never ends.  ;)

Haha, thank you for the warm welcomes!
Afraid I can't make any promises where chocolate is involved, but I'll certainly try and resist the urge!  :D
Hehe, think me joining in on the conversation may have to wait until I've read the rules again, wow, there's a lot of them! (Also, need to brush up on my maths for the CAPTCHAs I think, took me a second to remember basic multiplication!)

But, anyway, BIIIIG HUGS to you all!

The CAPTCHA thing goes away after a few posts.  It is just a security measure.  Also, after 15 posts, new aspects of the site will open to you.

So, hey, make a few posts here and there.

Chocolate?  Who mentioned chocolate??!

Hi Cait,

Come on in and relax. I felt much like you describe when I first posted. I'm beginning transition now (or trying to, but that's a long story). You may find you like the person you really are deep inside. :) That's not a requirement though. We're in your corner. Jess will share her chocolate, I'm sure.

Hello to the lovely people that I haven't said hello to yet! :laugh:
Actually really glad I checked back on this, I needed it after today! And don't worry, I had the sense to keep some chocolate next to my computer this time, crisis averted!

Thanks for the welcome! Wow, good to know it's not as uncommon as I thought, most people I know of tend to have the other spelling! ;D
