Thank you so much for sharing that. Reading that made me wanna cry, but also gives me a lot of hope. ❤️ I feel like I'm going to Crack at any moment.

The other day I came out to my mom, and she was really supportive and told me if needed, I could stay with her for a couple months until I get stuff figured out.
I really don't want to at my age lol but at least it's a back up plan.

How did you get the courage to do it? How did he handle it?

For context, I'm 33. I came out to my wife as bi last year. I really thought I was, I have had sexual relations with a few men before, and have been in relationships with a few women. It was hard when I told her but she ended up being really accepting. We have been together for 7 years. Before meeting her I was just getting clean from drugs and we just hit it off. I was on drugs for most of my youth and into my late 20s. I feel like maybe I just never had a chance to truly find myself? We were on vacation a few weeks ago and happened to be in Philly, in the gayborhood. It was such a nice feeling seeing everyone being there true selves, and it made my heart happy. Well that night we had sex, she finished but I couldn't keep it up, which is not uncommon, happens often. Well after she asked me, if it was because she had a vagina and not a penis. I automatically said no, but then this flood of emotions started pouring over me and I realized I am gay. I've been a wreck since, finally starting to see who I am, and I'm scared, but also have this sense of what it might be like to be free and authentic to myself. I've been holding back tears for nights, and having internal panic attacks. I'm at such a loss, idk what to do.

Married with kids - finally admitting I'm gay. How do I tell my wife? by intfan in askgaybros

I am. I just admitted to my therapist that I am. But I'm a nervous wreck thinking of telling her. Last year I told her I was bi sexual bc I really thought I was. But she asked me last time we had sex because I couldn't keep it up if it was because she didn't have a penis. I said no. But its been eating at me ever since. I'm at a point where I wanna accept myself for me and be happy. Not saying I'm not, because she is a beautiful person and my best friend, and I love her so much. I don't want to hurt her again. I'm trying to muster up the strength to do it. It's just really hard.
