New Guy

[ohcuriousguy4]

Hi Guys!

New to this site. I am a married Dad with 5 kids. I've been married for 18 years and have been a closeted gay since I was a teenager. My wife does not know about my challenging sexual persona! As I get older, it gets harder and harder to keep denying my true desires. I was hoping to find some friends here who might be going through the same thing or already been through it. Right now I just need someone I can talk to! Thanks. Happy to be here!
Dan

Wow that does sound tough, well I haven't been through what you have, but know the claustrophobic feeling of being closeted, so I can relate a smidge so welcome hope we all can be supportive and help a bit.

Welcome to GS.
I had wife and have son. I told my wife about my sexuality. You can read my story in Coming Out topic.

Hi Dan and to GS.

Your situation is not that unusual. I was married for 14 years and have two grown up daughters. Ive been out for 12 years now, and divorced for 10.

Plenty others in the same situation, so you are on the right place for advice.

These always make me sad. It must be so tough to live like that.
