[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found out my dad was gay when I was 41 and I totally understand your feelings.  It's not homophobia; it's simply a retelling to yourself of many of your life and family stories through the lens of this news.  I began realizing that most of my father's books were biographies of gay and bisexual men but I had never thought about that before ("He just finds them interesting").  Most of his friends were gay.  I had never thought about so many things.  Like you, my parents were still married.

[b]I had many concerns about whether I was conceived in love and I strongly believe that both of us, OP, were conceived in loving relationships.[/b]  Times were different then.[/quote]

Different poster here, but sending you hugs.   I'm 54 and there have been several couples in my mom's friend group where the husband has come out as gay very late in life.   These men absolutely loved their wives.   They were just pigeonholed into a life that wasn't 100% true for them.  If that makes sense.    I am certain both of you were conceived in loving relationships.  [/quote]
