YouKnowMe Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Hi, I am very new to all this, I am just wanting to stop by to introduce myself and say Hi. My name is Dave and I Identify as a Demi-Heteroromantic Asexual cisgender Male (pronouns He/Him), I have only recently in the last 2-3 months finely gave any thought to who/what I am and am trying to make sense of it all... it is going well so far. A little about myself, I am 34 years old today actually, I was a Professional chef for ten years but now I have gone to work for myself programming/designing video games (which is way more fun). I am looking forward to participating a lot in these forums making friends and just figuring life out. I also apologise for any bad spelling/grammar, I am also dyslexic.
