Hi everyone! I just joined Empty Closets a few moments ago. I'm a 44 year-old married dad who is just coming out. Looking around on the site I see that I'm a bit older than a lot of folks here. But I'm glad to see that young people are more honest about their sexuality than I was 20+ years ago. Anyway, I feel joyful that I finally accepted I'm gay - even though I waited this long!! I'm happy to have found this site and look forward to chatting with people here. Best wishes to all!
Welcome to EC and congratulations on coming to terms with who you are. It's never too late to live life the way you were meant to. I think you'll find this forum informative and fun. Hope you like what you see.
You're not the only married man on here, there's about two or three, though names escape me. However, you are just as welcome to our little family. I hope your family are just as happy and accepting as you are! Big welcome once again
Hi and welcome to EC, from another late bloomer. I was also married, have kids and am in the process of coming out right now (literally!). It feels great to finally accept who you are, even in your forties. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you.
Hi there and welcome to EC from another guy that figured out later in life that he was gay. I too was married and had two small children when I simply couldn't deny any longer that I was gay. Life got worse before it got better, but it's WAY better now than it ever had been! Congrats for having the courage to face this challenge. As I'm a moderator here, you can send me a private message if you wanted to chat privately or had any questions. Otherwise, enjoy EC. We'll see you around!
