    Hey guys, I'm new here having discovered this place through a friend. I'm a 36 year old gay (I suppose technically bi since I was married and have kids) man who discovered myself about three years ago.

    I'm still kind of new to identifying as gay and coming out of the closet more each day. I'm looking forward to meeting some other friends who understand what it's like to come out late in life, especially after marriage and kids.

    Welcome to EC!! I believe the journeys like yours are the most interesting, and I guess, the most challenging. Good luck in everything you do :grin:

    hey Ken,

    i am new and also older. this is a very frightening excursion along my journey to recovery.

    it is comforting that i am not alone in this adventure.

    i hope to find some measure of peace and maybe even happiness here as i think you might too.

    peace
