Come here. Yes, you there.

*gives giant hug* 

I feel for you, your hurt, your sadness. It makes me bristle like a mother bear, because you don't deserve to be sad. You are welcome here, both officially (as stated by the Admins) and socially by us CBers. I hope you find happiness soon. I am here for you. You are a fellow CBer. Along with many others I am sure, I will support you. We are here for you. If you need help anytime, we will answer your call. We are there for each other because that's what friends do. It doesn't matter if you're gay or straight; we are still here for you, and if anything, because of this thread, we are even more there for you. On a side note, you don't even need to feel pressured to come out with your name and everything, but know if you do, then we are still here for you, no matter what. Look around at the spirit and hope that is blossoming. I know that may sound sappy, but seriously. Look to the holiday spirit, the happiness thread, the quotes. Everyone has different ways of recovering, some faster than others. That doesn't erase scars, and but it sure does do a pretty dang good job at healing the wounds. Look around, look around, at how lucky we are to be alive right now.

Have a wonderful holiday. :)
