sup! my name is chris

[lgbtinkman]

so how do i start? well i live in Fairmont WV. a very conservative place even tho it's close to the second greatest gay bar in wv, vice versa. they got a web site so check them out! :) if living in an extreemly conservative place isnt enough, i have the ocupation that is overtly heterosexual. i'm apprenticing at a tattoo shop to be a tattoo artist. when you think tattoo artist do you think of bikers and sailors and whores? posibly but i know you didnt think of a gay dude... i'm the only one i know of around here. the other thing is i'm still in the closet with my homosexuality around my family and in the work place. all my closest friends know i'm gay but they dont know what its all about and i cant realy talk to them about it, almost all my friends are straight. i need some one who understands me...:(...so far so not good on getting myself a bf. the only gay friend i have is a lesbian and she doesnt even know if she is or not half the time. i just need a person to talk to...anyone?

hey lgbtinkman. I'm not too far away from you up in PA. you are not alone, even in Fairmont! my hubby and I just visited a gay man in Fairmont on Sunday.

and I know a lot of gay men with plenty of ink, so you may feel like you're alone where you are right now, but that's not totally true. both my husband and I have some ink. and we're considering more.
