Did I wait too long? Are my “good” years behind me? Sometimes I wonder if I should’ve come out earlier. BEFORE two failed marriages in heteroworld, back when I had no fear when it came to dating.
Never would’ve thought, coming out in my 40s, it would be this difficult to find my people/my person. Is it because I live in a small town and the closest area that has gay/lesbian areas are 45 minutes away or is it because I’m older and don’t hang out in bars anymore? There’s online dating but I’m finding a lot of the women just want a hook up. I’m too old for that. Am I the only one that wonders if they waited too long to come out and their “good” years are behind them??
No you did not. I started my slow coming out at age 57 also.....61 now. Never felt so at ease with myself.
