    Hi everyone, I'm 38 years old and have only just accepted the fact that I'm bisexual. I can't remember a time when I wasn't attracted to both sexes but because I was scared I put it to the back of my mind and only dated men. For the last year it has become increasingly obvious that I can no longer ignore my sexuality and have slowly come to terms with who I am. I am a long way off coming out to friends and family but to finally be able to admit it to myself is a huge step for me and for now that is enough.

    Welcome and best of luck to you. I am in a similar position and it is wonderful to have a place like this to openly talk about it.

    It really is amazing, I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I still have a long way to go but finally being able to talk about it is making the process so much easier.
