    Hello I am conscious rose 42
    Having been trying to be straight up until this point in my life ( age 42 yrs) I ended a 4 yr relationship and then fully woke up to 'I am a gay women '
    It feels great to be fully accepting now and my shame has lifted -
    My first experience when I was young was with a girl and I just put my orientation down to fantasy rather than reality

    It is so good to be fully in my sexuality now and exciting that I have this new life

    I have told 4 people and am taking it in my time -
    I am looking to join some kind of group where I live ( not a social / night time group as such more something with a purpose other than getting with someone


    I am here as if like to hear how it is for other people and get identification with my own growing into this new identity -
    It still feels very big to tell certain people and so support with that when the time is right would be helpful

    Thank you for being here ! :eusa_clap(&&&)
