Here's the thing people don't always realize about forgiveness. It's not for the person you forgive; it's for you. Yes, the person you...
Nothing to fix. You're not broken. As long as your attraction is to those old enough to decide for themselves if they want to reciprocate,...
If it makes you feel better, I'm 53 (almost 54) and just starting to date men and explore my own gender identity. It's never too late, I promise....
It IS different for everyone. Hells bells, I'm 53 and only starting to deal with it in my life now. Don't let anyone tell you, "You're doing it...
I've got to agree here. Gatekeepers are such annoying people. I joined an online chat room for crossdressers and trans girls about a year ago....
I feel the same way many times. I'm married and poly, and I am very shy when it comes to asking people out on a date. I know a lot of poly...
The cards look very familiar. Is that the Arthurian Tarot by chance?
I think this paraphrase from a book I read says it best. "Once my years were precious, now my days are." There is, for me at least, the...
I know that nervousness well, m'dear. I'm still wrestling with it myself sometimes. All I can say is I'm sure once we both get around to it and...
Psst! Over here! Practicing Wiccan for well over 20 years, and a Wiccan Priest who has officiated at weddings and such. I am quite happy to...

Kicking your demons in the face is not necessarily a bad thing as long as they're not real people, and you're only doing it metaphorically....
I remember when I first learned to ride a bike. My dad was teaching me (one of the few really good memories I have of him), and eventually, we...
Bravo! Well written, with feeling and openness. I admire your courage, Barista... I'm sorry it took a while to respond, but most assuredly you...
I've been alternately angry and sad. I've mellowed in my later years, and it take more to really get me angry these days. What did it wasn't the...
People change. That is a certainty. What is not certain is how they will change and what the effects of that change might be. As someone in a...
Things ARE improving. DADT, as half-assed as it was, was a necessary step in the process. Society was not ready for full acceptance of gay...
Barista, this is a place where I have a good bit of experience. The good news, it's quite possible. The bad news, it's not easy. But then...
Crap. I feel like I owe you an incredible apology, Katchoo. Apparently, my earlier encouraging post here was utterly full of shit. I am so...
