Hi all, I'm a new member. Just signed up. Looking to understand myself (mainly) and the community more. Hoping to meet new people and gain new perspectives. I'm a bi guy. I've realized many years ago that I'm, in fact, bi but didn't realize it until after I was married. So, I never got to go to Gay Bars or hang out with other like minded men. That said, I'm happily married to my supportive (and aware) wife. We go to pride in Chicago, for example. I'm looking to meet gay and bi men and understand how I "fit" in and how I can relate. I've always (and still do) feel very guarded about my sexuality. I only let a few select friends know and even then it's indirect and not a topic that comes up often (either out of respect for myself, my wife or what have). That being said, sometimes I want to talk about my sexuality. I'd like to know a person or two where I'm not so guarded about my sexuality (or theirs for that matter). Anyway, I look forward to exchanging communication with you all.
Welcome Frank! I didn’t figure this out until late middle age, and I’ve found Empty Closets to be very helpful. I recommend the “Later in Life” sub forum here, as you’ll find many more of folks in our shoes there.
