Hi everyone, i only just noticed these threads and realised that I had not contributed my introduction also. I do have a thread in the coming out section 'the shackles are broken...' but I never gave myself a chance to say a big HI! I think you are all fantastic on here and wish I had found EC long ago as it would have probably helped my decade and a half long struggle easier. Anyway, I have finally taken that next step for real and told the hardest person for me...my partner (and unfortunately for our situation, the mother of my child). However, she has taken my revelation very well and we are on track for maintaining a positive friendship for our son's sake and our own. The second hardest step will be leaving but it will have to be done and I know that, in time, she will be able to come to terms with things properly in her own space. ...i feel like I can sleep for a week after letting it all out. Look forward to chatting to everybody :icon_wink
Hi and welcome.I hope it works out for you to keep seeing your son..it didn't for my partner and he lost contact with his son..
Welcome to EC! I wish I had found this site fifteen years ago, too. It sounds like you are in a difficult position. I hope it works out well for you!
Thank you all and hi again to everybody that has been kind enough to look into my thread and respond I've just gotten back from a nice carvery with my ex and son after her three day struggle of coming to terms with my shocker to her. It went well and she says she feels like her mind is in a place where she can accept what I have told her and what I need to do with my life.
