Ok so I am 47. Just came out to myself less than a year ago. Been doing a LOT of soul searching, journaling, all the things (the cottage has figured heavily into my recent life lol). My question is this: is there anyone else out there coming out later in life like me? What was it like for you? What were those first few dates you went on like? What surprised you? Have you noticed that you are discovering other things about you that aren’t specifically “gay” but are definitely related to coming out to yourself and others?
