    Hi,
    I am 48, no previous relations or anything. 16 months ago I started a relationship with a woman who was born at the day I graduated from university. We are happy. Yet, she is not out and I am not out. We work together. Our daily life is OK, but weekends and holidays just suck. I am lonely and drinking far more i should. OK, my mom is 81, likes her a lot and accepts her as my room made. But what next? Her parents have seen me once, but... Inside our small bubble, everything is OK. I am so worried that I might abuse her. She needs help and I need help. Age gap, same sex, too small country. Hate it.

    I really need some support. My partner is away and I feel like dying. Yes, she'll be back, but I am a mess without her.

    What makes holidays hard? Being alone. Since she is not out, I can not phone her during holidays. Yet, today is OK again. We have to figure out how we boh will survive.

    So the difficulty is that you have to celebrate separately and without contacting each other on those days? That does sound hard. Do you live near other family members? Are you living together? What happens if people come to your home?
