My first few days on true nudist website

hi to all who take the trouble to read.....what a lovely bunch of folks on here, never thought i would be so welcomed so fast. I am not to sure of the rules of engagement sometimes and probably should read the rule book myself but i am sure i will find out for myself sooner or later. I have never been part of an online community before and as such wonder how it might seem to the other people involved if i am just myself; slightly nuts, sometimes silly, always friendly and totally unashamedly open. there is not to much in my life that i will not share or have an opinion on. And as the son of colonial parents in Africa, at boarding school from the age of 4, i grew up fast and have done more than most. Hell i had hitch-hiked across most of southern Africa by the time i was 15 the rest of by 18. Back to topic, how do you start to share and express yourself without coming over as a complete nut. Is everyone waiting for someone else to message them once they have become friends or do most people just collect friends to fill up the page. I do hope not. i want to and have chosen friends that i feel i might connect with in some way hopefully building a relationship across boarders and boundaries to share what is a lifestyle choice, to be naked, all be it privately or publicly it is a wonderful way to be. except if I'm painting and spill thinners. lol My wish is that this site truly delivers the sense of community where like everywhere else there is the right mix of fun, frolics and friendship to make life worthwhile. thanks for reading and hope it was worth your precious time, you cant get it back you know.......Richard
