    Glad I was able to find one supportive place on the internet where it's recognized that not everyone who has remained closeted into their 40s or later also has a hetero marriage and/or kids they have to come out to.

    Short version: 42, gay, never sexually or romantically active, closeted but thinking about coming out. The very long version is in this thread over on the LGBT Later in Life section, for those who have the patience to read my wall of text.

    Welcome to EC. (*hug*)
    Glad to welcome you to such an awesome community.

    I read your other thread, but I'm typically not wise enough about life to contribute much to threads in the LGBT Later in Life subforum, so it's usually read-only for me. ;D

    Anyway. Happy you found this place. It's a safe-haven for so many of us.
