    Hello and welcome, sb35. :slight_smile:

    My meager advice (which I'm trying to follow myself): 1) visit here lots to soak up the positive energy and encouragement from others, 2) keep trying to put one foot in front of the other on this new and sometimes scary journey...

    Hi Sb...can I ask a question? Did you always know that you were gay but married because you were convinced you could make it work? Sometimes I think that...I know I'm gay (I'm VERY in closet) but everyone expects me to get married, have kids, etc. So I think I should just do it...having kids and people in my life is better than being alone, right? Just want to hear your perspective...EC is awesome, welcome.
