This is my 1st visit and posting. My wife an I just shared a month anniversary since I told her I was gay. I kind of lost in a world of confusion and regret and at the age of 68 I don't want to lose all the network and connections I have made over decades of denial of my true self. Yet for personal integrity and well-being I have come out of the closet. Depression, guilt and anger have decreased somewhat, but self-esteem, confidence and fear of the future are still with me. So I seek kindred spirits to at least converse with at this point of my life. I have never had a male partner and have remained faithful to marriage yet tormented by my attraction to men - always tried to keep hidden. So here I am.
