    Hello there, I'm 33 years old and I'm definitely questioning my sexuality. I'm married with kids. My husband is okay with this and says he would never judge me. But I am not ready to talk to him yet about this. When he brings it up I change the subject. I definitely know I like women but I'm scared of the next step. I have been attracted to women for years but haven't gone further than a few kisses.

    Hi to you too.
    I am a bit older(50s) and have a similar issue.
    Am a newbie to EC,so exploring.
    I haven 't told anyone yet that I am bi as am pretty scared,as I am in a long term hetero relationship with 3 lovely kids.
    Only recentntly have I agreed with myself about my sexuality,and want to explore with a woman.
    As my relationship isn't so secure because i don't want intimacy,coming out is a scary thought,and i don't want to hurt my partner or children.
    Hope that makes sense.
    EC seems a safe place to me.

    I am in the same situation. I just came out to my husband today, so we have not figured out all the details such as separating and co parenting. Luckily he is very supportive, but I know i have hurt him.

    I'm so sorry to hear of you and your husband separating. That's really sad. I hope you're able to iron out your issues.
