About Me
I am a 65 year old gay man that most of my life have lived a lie about my sexuality. Was married had four children and was living that lie for about ten years. I loved my wife and to this day still do. Back in my day it was not healthy to tell anyone that you were gay, there was an expectation that you got married and had children by all members of society as well as parents. The last thing I wanted to do was to hurt anyone, but it happened and I hurt allot of people. I can't say that I regret getting married, my biggest regret is that it came with allot of hurt. I am still in the closet
