[quote=Anonymous]Hugs, OP.

I know it's not the same, but my sister just started dating a woman at 34. She's always dated men (and always had troubled relationships, but that's another issue). She didn't want to tell us because, she said, she doesn't like confrontation. I think she really just doesn't want to answer questions or actually say (or decide) if she's gay, bisexual, whatever. Regardless, I support it and I told her that. It made her relax a little to hear that.

Our brother is gay and has been out since he was 19; it was never a problem. If I'm being honest, I do (surprisingly) see a difference in reaction in my dad between my brother coming out and my sister announcing her new girlfriend, but I think he's a) older and more stick-in-the-mud, and b) confused because she's always been "straight." But he's still supportive.

All that to say, I don't think it's ever too late to live your life on your terms, especially now that you have a newfound freedom. You can't control how your kids will react. If you read DCUM enough you know they could find some other reason to be angry with you anyway. Why not go for it?[/quote]
