Hello Matt. I too am here because of our Twitter connection. Your story is at first heartbreaking, but then you have turned your experiences into this site which is a support to all who need it. I will not judge your family, I will simply say, deciding who makes up your family is within your power. It's wonderful that you have the love of your life!
I am here because I hope I can help others. I am in a relationship that would be a "legal" marriage if Florida allowed us to have the same civil rights as others. We are registered domestic partners as the county we are in allows that. We may marry in another state (we both lived in NY for some time) or tough it out and wait for Florida to come on board.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and forging new friendships.
Take care!

Hi Matt, Thank you so much for sharing your story! I am so glad I found this forum. I've recently come in terms with the fact that I'm bisexual, but it's difficult to share my feelings and thoughts about it. Living in Asia has its perks, but also its downsides, and one of those downsides is the lack of support and resources for the LGBTQ+ community. If the fight for equality in the States is still ongoing, then it's safe to say Asia has barely begun theirs. Anyways, I look forward to getting to know everyone here!

Feel free to post around the site, you will find this place a judgment free zone where you can always share what's going on in your life. Most of us know all to well what it is like to be LGBT+ in an area that is not supportive, and lacks resources for the LGBT+ Community. Let me know if there is ever anything we can do to help! ~Matt
