I guess that happens when you also care for what others will say because of the people you love. You want to protect them, you want to be open as well but you can’t or you’re cautious.

Agreed.
I truly have not come out.
Never officially stated it to any of my family.
At work no one knows.

So I don't think I came out ... right?

I do hope that someday you will be able to feel free. You are indeed very brave and strong to hold it up this long. I wish for you to be blessed with such happiness and also success. Being unable to speak your mind and heart makes a person sad and lonely.

You’re very much welcome.

You are kind and generous. Please keep it up. We need people as such in this world.

I have a spouse that loves me for me and all my quirks and strangeness and ***.

I have a dog who reminds me that I am loved and here for his needs "Feed me daddy" LOL.

I have a home that is safe with neighbors that respect boundaries.

I am far, by far the best off I have ever been.
if you were to have asked me 22 years ago, you would have gotten a different answer

You are surrounded with people who value you as a person.

Thank you for your kind words. It means a lot to me. 🥺😢

Same here. I am already old and I have just started to come out. But not nearly out. Still letting my parents know about who I am, slowly. When they’re used to it, maybe I can go bigger. Little steps. Omg. I think I’ll reach 70 when I am finally out myself. 🤣🤣🤣

Letting them know your preference is not really easy. It won’t be easy to absorb. 🥺
