Hello Everyone

[ScottishLad1978]

Hey there my name is Sandy and I am 32 years old and I live in Wolverhampton now but I am from Scotland. I was sexually abused by friends when I was 9 years old. It was like a sort of gang, and I was told that they would kill me if I told anyone.

It has effected me badly as I started staying in and piling on the weight so that people would think I was ugly and not do it again. Also "maybe" as a result, I am not a openly gay man who cant seem to handle how to get a relationship.

Anyway hope your all well and I hope so speak with you all soon.

Sandy xoxoxoxox

Just take your time hun and post at your own pace everyone here is really nice and if you need any help with stuff regular members can't help out with, the mods are ace. You need ten posts to be able to use chat and you must ask a moderator if you require passwords to any of the appropriate protected forums x
