| Well Known Full Member   Gender: Male Orientation: Gay Out Status: out to over 30 now!! Location: Iowa Age: 56 Posts: 125 Join Date: Oct 2011 | Re: Late Bloomer Hi, Mike. I turned 56 in December and just started coming out in January. I'm sure you'll hear from others like us here. It would probably be worth your time to look at posts and threads from me, Tracker57, and JimL. We have similar stories, but are at different stages of dealing with it. You don't say if you're married. If not, at least you've avoided some of our additional coming out drama. If so, all the more reason to read our posts! Welcome to EC, Mike! Feel free to post here or to my wall. I welcome new friends!  55bna |
