I've had two female loves in my life. Both broke my heart. Had a fling with a guy back in the 70's and have had feelings since. No Complications as I've been a Widower now for thirteen years and am only just accepting that that the real me is Bi and possibly pangendered. Now about to make the first faltering steps. I have gay and Lesbian friends who I will probably come out to first. These are my first steps. :help:
welcome peage! this is a great place, lots of wonderful supportive people. The first steps are the hardest but I found the first coming out (to my wife) to be immensely liberating. Keep us posted!
Hi and welcome to EC! As my signature says, it's never too late to be what you might have been. Good luck!
I am working on believing that I can have a future as a gay man; it's encouraging to be on this site where there are so many courageous people taking these steps.
That's the easy bit, finding somebody you like and and being certain they're gay. I've a lot to learn and I'm playing Catch Up.
Update Out Now to Six people two of them Gay Colleagues and feeling good about it. Learnt a bit about being safe. Most importantly both gay colleagues are wonderfully supportive One after he picked himself up of the floor. Will take me to a gay bar in the big city where you get a "Good Mix of People". I'm excited but frightened at the same time. Thank you all for your support, you'll never know how much you've helped me. Love Philip (Real Name)
