Coming out in your late sixties

I’m a mature man with female wife, kids and grandkids. I’m not out. Met loads of guys on this site. Just sex mostly - but there are some close relationships too and a real lover. I’m wondering whether to come out now to my family - knowing it will be an inevitable shitshow and incredibly painful for the family. What to do?

Think very carefully before you do.

Think again.

Keep it secret, no point upsetting the whole family.

"Anyone done it?"

Nah! At our age, keep your cards close to your chest, life is far too short for hassle especially self-inflicted, it would be far too stressful painful and likely to result in devastating and total misery, it's time to focus on enjoying whatever time we have left in this unfathomable existence, whether it's a long or short future, (hopefully the former!), in the easiest, most comfortable and pleasurable way possible!

Good luck!

It's never too late to come out. But you need to be mindful of your family and what effect it might have on them. Does your happiness outweigh their happiness?

I'm currently in a similar situation.

I'm divorced retired professional with a weakness for cock especially if you're highly sexed well endowed and experienced.

My first real boyfriend Gio was blessed with eight inches of beautiful stiff cock and he was priapic and always erect ready for action.

I've unfortunately lost touch with him.

Looking forward to meeting a replacement...

Mmmmmm Lovely thought ❤️

One question you should ask yourself can you afford it divorce ain’t cheap do you have enough money to buy another house.How many of your family would disown you plus your wife probably doesn’t want to be single at her age.

I think you would lose a lot & gain nothing should keep it to yourself.

My advice is think very carefully, you could lose more than you gain.

Would a lot of damage and bridges to repair.

If you can remain discreet.

Take care

Write a heartfelt letter to your wife/family explaining yourself and detailing how you have thought long and hard about coming out - and why you chose not to. Put it somewhere very safe or give to a trusted friend to hold (in case you die and it’s found)

Hand it over in the event you are busted to help evidence this wasn’t some flippant seedy sideline you chose to get involved in

Unless you really want to wreck your life

Stay secret

After all why bother at this stage ?

Just keep on living with it

In a world of my own

I’m a single guy in my mid 60’s

Always knew I was gay, never formed a relationship with a women, or had straight sex.

Kept my preferences sexually personal all through to present day.

There is no need to ‘broadcast’ to all you are gay, straight or bisexual.

If you want to ‘come out’ then fine, but there’s always the possibility folk you consider friends will react differently to what you anticipate.

I didn’t have sex of any kind until I passed 40, when all family had passed away, now sex is totally gay, in private and between consenting guys, mainly with the same guys when we meet on cruising walks.

It’s all personal choice whether to come out or not, no pressure either way.

It is their business and I'm not sure why his family should go fuck themselves when they're done nothing wrong.

You sound disgusting.

My husband was married to a woman go 38 years when we met. He decided to come out. Left her and eventually married me.

He always said it was the best thing he ever did. He could be himself.

He was so unhappy in his marriage. No sex, she spoke down to him constantly, even saying if he got sick to not expect her to care for him.She just couldn’t bare to see him happy.

At his funeral she told everyone how she wished him dead and got her wish.

I was glad he was cared for when he got sick.

I suppose coming out is relevant to the relationship you have

If you’re unhappy how it is, change it. If not, don’t.

Not surprised she was angry after finding out he'd lied to her for four decades. If he'd told her earlier she might have found happiness with someone else.

If you're married and gay and have any respect for your partner, tell them. Anything else is just cowardly and selfish imo

It depends if its love or just lust. If you love another person more than your wife and want to be in a marriage like partnership ..then youre really contemplating a divorce with all its financial as well as social consequences. If youre just enjoying cock fun and cant see yourself not leaving your wife...just keep it to yourself

Don't do it!

You are experiencing what happens when men get a little bit older, sex with woman becomes boring, they have three holes and like in your situation they're usually your wife, boring. I think it may be an evolutionary thing, once you've raised the kids, it's time to f*** guys or be f***** by guys or suck guys Cocks, to your question, should I tell? The answer is probably no, society won't accept it that you even asked a question means they won't. Perhaps the best thing to do is get a better calendar and watch lol

Consensus. Don't do it.

Crying

Guilt

Financial crisis

Mortgage

Loans

Hate

And the biggest thing is

Regret.

Gay or trans Sex is over and done with in minutes or hours, but regretting that you lost a relationship and screwed up will last a lifetime.

Sorry but this is incredibly selfish to your wife

Understand that coming out in your younger days would have been hard and people were ‘forced’ into marriage because it was the norm, but coming out now will just lead to financial crisis, pain, guilt, hurt and possibly not having contact with kids and grandkids.

Sorry to hear your husband has passed

But can you blame his ex wife? He lied to her for 38 years. If he had come out way earlier the she wouldn’t have wasted nearly four decades on him.

She isn’t the bad person in that situation

If your truly unhappy in your marriage and there’s no love there then time to move on, you don’t need to say anything about being gay/bi

Just end your marriage and go live on your own then you can do as you please and if you don’t want to come out that’s your choice but you can still have all the gay/bi sex that you want when you want without hurting anyone.

That’s what I did a few years ago and it’s the happiest I have ever been

A first step would be to have a 3some with your wife. If she agrees, it's a way to start getting her used to the idea.

Your wife probably knows or suspects anyway. Best to write out a list of the pros and cons, and then decide. The truth is liberating but you may find yourself in a lonely position.

I came out late, always knew was gay, l just decided l didn't want to hide anymore. I came out on Xmas day in 2011 to my Dad, every time I went to say I have something to tell you, either something would happen or someone came round, l was going to tell my Dad over dinner but couldn't get the words out, time was getting on & just thought if I don't say anything I wasn't going to so I just took a deep breath & told him, he was absolutely fine about it & just said if you are you are, all my family/friends & work know & have been very lucky as have not had any issues, it was probably one of the best things I did. Understand it's not for everyone plus it's not always easy
