Hi, I recently joined EC. I just turned 52 and I've always known I was attracted to women (as early as elementary school crushes on teachers, all my best friends growing up and co-workers later). I caved to what society and my parents preached; married, had 2 children. Now, they are on their own and I want to live the rest of my life, being honest about who I am. This site is wonderful. Thanks for listening.
Hi Ava - welcome to EC, 'tis a magical place! You'll find you've got much in common with plenty of folks here. I'm starting to think we should change the name of this forum from "Later in Life" to "People Pleasers". But we've all, in our own time, come into our own and are in the process of truly owning it. Look forward to getting to know you!
