Hello all,
Im sure im not the first and probably wont be the last to make a post like this. Id like to start off by saying this isnt entirely a negative post, Id like to think its somewhat postive even!
But ive recently joined the site to understand my own experiences and feelings and I think I've realized a lot. I mostly read, just trying to understand other perspective and experiences in the zoo community. I've come to realize that I am a member of it, even if I struggle to accept that fact. Its not like... a gross feeling or anything. I wouldn't say I'm disgusted with myself, but I would say I'm uncomfortably relieved in some way. I can say I'm happy this space exists, even though I read in silence mostly, I gotta admit this place is a real cast of characters (postive) and it's comofrting to see/know I'm not alone.
So I guess while I struggle, I'm happy to have found a place to share my future experiences and thoughts!
I'd like to ask: how did you come to realize and accept your zoo tendencies and lifestyle? I havent told anyone except 1 IRL friend who just happens to be into it as well, but discussions with others would be appreciated.
