Hey y’all so huh, not sure if its okay for me to publish this here and I’d understand if you delete the post.

I don’t know where to start. 3 months have passed since I created this account and its been incredibly hard for me to come write these lines (it may be nonsense, sorry, I do my best to be coherent).

So, few days ago I found the courage to come out as a woman to my fedi-friends (I love them all so much) and now here I am.
For the obvious part, I am TheOtterInside or, shorter, Loutre, but I currently have no chosen name Id like to show.
I have been lurking {lemmy,piefed}.blahaj.zone for months almost every single day as y’all here have helped me without even knowing. You have offered me both hope and joy. Thank you.
I am a rather introverted girl and am not comfortable enough to state my location (well, this one you can easily guess it), my face and most of my personal informations.

If there is anything you’d like to know please do ask. Worse that could happen is me answering "not comfy" (or a variation).

With luv, Loutre
