So hi, glad to be here. Really glad. I am a 30 y/o mother of two, I was married for five years. After struggling with a lot of internalized homophobia that was instilled in me at a young age I feel like I have finally accepted who I am. I am not actively dating right now, I want to be in a good place first (financially and emotionally). This is the longest I've ever been single (a year now) and I am loving breaking away from my negtative patterns. The next step is to continue introducing myself to the lgbt community here and online and continue to come out to people close to me, and this has created a whole new positive outlook that I didn't think was possible. I feel more free now than ever, after years of trying to find the guy that would "fix" me I realize there was far less wrong than I thought, and I am pretty damn awesome ---------- Post added 10th Dec 2013 at 07:40 PM ---------- Ps by "here" I mean in my city, we're pretty big
I am glad that you've learned to love yourself in your entirety. Most, if not all, people are awesome (With obvious exceptions). Welcome to EC =]
Thanks everyone, excited to look around this site more and continue living day to day knowing that it's ok to have my feelings. Sorry for being a nerd about it, but it's been an amazing journey
Wow, that's really inspirational ^-^ I think it's so great that you can love yourself and be proud of who you are, I envy that You seem like you've definitely got your life on the right track. I'm only 17 and I'm still struggling to accept my sexuality, I feel like I could learn allot from you! Anyway, welcome!
