Where to begin? Ive been debating about joining a support group for awhile now. Im 39, divorced with 3 kids. In high school i had a relationship with another girl, i loved her but she was very troubled and left me for a much older woman. I really thought it was wrong to pursue any relationships with women and wanted to be "normal." I got married to a great guy and i did love him but as time went on i still questioned my sexuality. 18 years and 3 kids later i met an amazing woman and fell in love. There were other problems in my marriage and i found what i had been looking for all my life. Ive been with my girlfriend for a year and a half now, i want it to be long term, possibly marriage. I know she loves me and wants the same, however she is married. She feels stuck in a situation she cant get out of. I know now theres no turning back. Im so in love with this woman. She completes me and im happiest when i am with her. I just hope that there is a future for us. I cannot imagine my life without her. But i feel alone at times, keeping our relationship secret. I want more, and at least for now, cannot have it.
