    Reading the stories on this site has been helping me see myself in a new way.

    I am a bisexual male in my late 30s looking for a better understanding of myself and to meet others in this community. I became aware of my same sex desires and feelings around my early teens, but because of the dysfunctionality and homophobic behavior of my family I learned at a young age to hide my true self as much as possible. Now I am looking to change that.

    Hello! I’m 34 and, after many years of inner conflict and denial, finally came to the realization that I am bisexual. Reading other people’s stories has helped me not feel so alone. I’m new here too, but welcome! :relaxed:
