Wow,
What a day??
The group was better than i could have ever suspected!!!!
**
I got on the bus earlier to head into the meeting and I actually felt sick. I honestly thought I was going to chicken out.
I got off the bus and spent like half an hour looking for the building. Luckily I gave myself an hour in anticipation of me getting lost!
But when I did find the BeLonGTo building it was the wrong building! It was their offices rather than their meeting place! But luckily there was a leader their on his way to the meeting. So he brought me to the building. We talked as we walked across the bridge to the other building and he was really nice. That kinda settled my nerves.
We arrived at the building where there were two girls outside talking. They were my age and I found out that they were two young faciltators. The guy I who brought me to the building handed me over to them and they gave me a tour of the building. They were sooo friendly! They talked to me and really made me feel good and not nervous.
I talked to them for a while and met another guy my age(who's also a young facilitator) and he was really nice as well(and really cute!!!!! Lol) and then we went back to the main room where more people had arrived. So I sat down with the two girls and talked with then for a while. Then the 'cute guy' sat down with us for a while as well. He was really nice as well.
Then we all went down to the basement where they went through 'the news' and played an icebreaker game. That was nice. We then went upstairs and we played a table quiz where I met some new people. A guy and a girl both around my age. They were REALLY nice! We came third in the quiz and then they invited me out to have a bite to eat with both of them. We talked for ages. They were people I think that I could be really good friends with.
I had such a good time!
There were three or four people in the group of about 30 who I think were quite annoying and mightn't get along with but sure there are always people like that so that's fine!
It was such a great day and I'm soooo glad I didn't get scared and chicken out!
It was a place where I could totally be myself. Fantastic!!
Can't wait to go back!!
What a fantastically perfect day!!!!
Thanks guys for all of your support!!

I am not surprised you had fun and a good time!! :D And I cannot be happier! I would so give you a big hug right now just so you feel how proud I am of you! :) You know what made me even prouder? It's the fact that you recognised that those 30-something year olds are annoying, but dickheads are all around us and we just have to be tolerant! That's a gold attitude, S! :)
I know I'm a random stranger and this might seem odd, but I really am very proud of you - you just inspired a lot of people reading your blog I'm sure, to reach out when you feel isolated and alone. :) *two big thumbs up and a wink*
Proud of you
Glad to hear everything went just great!!
Love
Daniel
