    Hello all,

    I'm a completely out lesbian who hangs around this forum because a) I came out late, and b) I want to learn more about what it's like for other late bloomers in situations similar as well as dissimilar to mine, for example those who do discover their love for women after having gotten married and had kids. I find it so valuable to read people's stories, and I also want to be supportive and helpful when I can.

    I guess I wasn't very "good at" at repressing my sexuality, so I kept rejecting one guy awesome guy after another, only getting involved with totally emotionally unavailable guys, until one day a close friend of mine who knew I sometimes had feelings for women, suggested I take that part of my sexuality more seriously.

    I listened to that person. I've been completely out for a good while now, and I haven't looked back.

    Cya around!
