    Hi everyone, thought Id introduce myself. My name is Anne I am 44 years old. I am going thru a divorce from my husband of 19 years. We have 4 kids together.

    When I was a teen I was def. boy crazy and only dreamed about boys until I saw this one girl when I was about 16. I was so infatuated with her. I didn't even know her and only spoke a few words to her once or twice. I was extremely shy and insecure in high school do talking to people was a huge deal. Anyway, that was my first girl crush and the first time I realized I was bisexual. I only had a thing for her at first, no other girls ever entered my mind at the time. So I continued to date guys and as I got a little older Id meet a girl now and again that Id be attracted to but not enough to really do anything about it. I kind of brushed it off. I STILL to this day think about the first girl I had a crush on and wonder what she's up to (shes not on facebook as far as I know lol) Anway, shes in Minnesota and Im on the east coast so I will probably never know. I'm telling you I had it BAD for this girl. I *think she was gay but am not 100% sure.

    I ended up getting married when I was 25 and started a family right away. I mainly focused on being a wife and mother for the next 15 years or so. Probably over the past 5 years or more I have started to notice women more and more. I was unhappy in my marriage but never really looking for anyone else. I wanted out of my marriage and to just be on my own with shared custody of the kids. I had no intentions of jumping into a new relationship then or finding someone else. However, my desire to be with another woman (and not just in a sexual way) is growing and growing. I have no desire to be with a man anymore, Im not attracted to men and the idea of kissing or sex with a man is ... blah to me. lol.

    So anyway, I am out to a couple people. My kids don't know and my soon to be ex found out because he thought I was having an affair and looked at computer records and found some things that he questioned and so I told him I was attracted to women. I was so, so angry he found out before I wanted to tell him. I don't know why because I'm not ashamed and I would have told him eventually but it just kills me he found out on his own.

    So that's my long story up til now. I am working things out with the divorce and finding somewhere to live. I want to meet someone at some point now. I woudnt even know where to meet anyone. I know It seems fast but Ive been wanting out of my marriage for a while but stayed for the kids.

    So that's my story and thanks for reading.

    Anne
