    Hello, I'm Josh

    I could definetly use some advice right now.

    I have been hiding for all of my life.
    I have been married to a woman for eight years.
    over the past couple of years I find it hard to hide.
    The reason I am married to a woman is because I was trying to make my feeling go away.
    But I have realized that this is the person I am.
    And now I need to let her know how I feel, I know it's going to crush her..I just don't want to drag her on if she's not what I want.

    I also have been hiding it from my family. Because while I was growing up I had these feelings but with how my family does not agree with it, I have kept it hidden for years!!



    Please if anyone has any suggestions
    I am ready to come out to the world but I am very scared that I will be alone!

    I was thinking of attending the Indy pride festival this weekend but don't know where to start??

    Welcome to EC!

    There Are the "Coming Out Advice" and "Later in Life" subforums that you might find help :slight_smile: So you could post a thread in either one of those.

    Since you're a new member, you have to make 10 posts (not in fun and games) in order to be able to wall message a user (just click on the person's username name to go to their wall). Private messaging (unless it's a staff member) is unavailable until you become a full member.
