    Greetings, peers. New here. A bit about myself. I'm 40 years old, but I wasted all of my youth, my 20s and most of my 30s in complete denial about my sexuality. I would always try to convince myself that I had not met the right woman, but deep down I knew. When a woman I was seeing wanted to get intimate with me, I was out. It was an awful way to live, and I have a lot of regrets about that and all the experiences I missed out on as a young man. But as they say, better late then never :slight_smile:

    Welcome to EC, good Sir! :grin: Congrats on coming out (both to yourself and to your family) and I hope that whatever you decide on in regards to your journey, that it goes well. If you ever have any questions or the like, feel free to post them on the appropriate forums or reach out to someone. Everyone here is pretty accepting and supportive.

    Wish you all the best!
