I remember feeling this way. - All of us were 'a few steps behind' at one time or another!
:slight_smile: Yes good problems to have ! :grin: For years I was indifferent to marrying a woman, when I think of kissing my husband when he...
Before I didn't notice or I would avoid the flirty smiles I got from guys, now I smile back. It's really hard to tell because now I am going to...
I had a few drunk gay hookups years ago in the closet, where I chickened out in the middle. I really consider my first gay sex experience just a...
Yes it's scary but what I found is the really scary part is acknowledging the passion I was feeling. the 'fear of being wrong' is common because...
justaguyinsf is one of the most truly open minded people here, I am not married but it sounds like sound advice. Sex doesn't have to be the...
what scared and shocked me even more is the intimacy I think the sex came out of that. What came hard to come to terms with that I felt that...
I know you have a lot more to deal with - husband, child, family - thanI do but your posts sound so much like how I felt. As for scary part or the...

hi Patrick, I wasn't forced and didn't go though any kind of therapy- I just sought answers on my own. I saw personal testimonials that seemed...
congrats. It's funny my first 'out' was the same - I just blurted it out... I didn't think coming out was a big deal but after it felt so good,...
Yes it's very very hard but possible. Science can be politicized. That's why it's being used as a political tool now. Any scientist as you have...
The good news is that acceptance comes eventually. Now when I think about the intense sexual and romantic feelings I have for men,, I feel happy...
I understand. Many of us were like that. before I accepted myself (which is only in the last year) i was very repressed. I didn't think I had...

I didn't mean to label you, sorry! as @silverhalo said you don't have to give yourself one. Some of us find it helpful, others don't. My key to...
