    I stumbled upon the coming out stories in the forum and after reading through several of them, I decided to join up. I only very recently have found the courage to come out to my family. I wish I had found the forum sooner as it might have given me more confidence, but regardless I managed it. I was especially encouraged by the posts of several members that are, like me, not exactly "spring chickens." It makes me feel less alone and akward. Anyhow, just wanted to say, "Howdy!" :icon_bigg

    Howdy and welcome to EC from another 30something! This is a great forum and there are a lot of really good people here. I know how you feel about not being a "spring chicken"!

    Hi and welcome to Empty Closets! Congratulations on your coming out journey thus far. :slight_smile:

    There are few of us (30+) on EC. I started coming out two years ago and haven't looked back since.

    Welcome aboard!
