Hi guys, I am new here and to the LBGTQA community. Actually, I haven't jumped into that pool yet. I just have been reflecting on who I am and it dawned on me that I have felt like both genders as far back as I can remember. People coined this as I was just a tomboy, but I don't think that was it. I suppressed it for a long time because of the churches I was involved in. I was even confused for a boy until I was 3, and ever since, I have had both male and female interests. I love feeling pretty sometimes, then others putting on make up seems wrong. I love working on cars, and I often think I am wrong for doing so because it messed my nails up. Other days Ill work on cars and my hands will be stained for days, and I am proud of it, because I feel it makes me seem bad ass. Sometimes I feel more manly than my husband. Its like we switch roles. But he is cis and straight. and talking to anyone I know seems earth shattering and uncomfortable, and we already have enough drama going around. But I just wanted to say hi to everyone, and that Im glad to be here. Never in a million years did I ever think I'd be in this position(&&&).
Hello and Welcome! We're glad to have you here. It's really good to see that people who are in relasionships can explore their sexuality. It doesn't happen much especially with people who are married. I'm glad to see people accepting themselves when they seem cemented in a place where it could be hard to. :eusa_clap I hope that while you are here you can discover more about yourself! :icon_bigg And again, Welcome.
Welcome to EC! I hope that this can be the place where you feel comfortable telling people about your situation. If you need to talk to someone, I'd be happy to help. Have fun!
Selena isn't my real name of course, that's a secret I haven't quite admitted to my husband my deal, but I know he's down with the clown. Im just not comfortable in my own skin to feel worthy enough to per sue anything
Welcome! I am new as well. I can sort of identify with what you are saying as well. I think you sound like a very cool person, and i think it's awesome that you don't box yourself in, you just go full force into the moment without any thought as to what "role" it fits in. Just be your best, and don't hold back. Keep it up!
Welcome! There are many in the "Later in Life" section that are married and questioning, or married and just coming out. Really I've found them to be an excellent group to talk to. They're really insightful!
