Coming Out Late

Ep. #133: Wait, WHAT? I'm GAY? Why Didn't Anyone Tell ME? Part 1


Listen Later

In this week’s episode, “Wait, what? I’m Gay? Why Didn’t Anyone Tell ME?” Robin continues the conversation and walks us down memory lane, recapping the deeper details of her own coming out late process as Chris asks her some deeper, vulnerable questions. Listen and follow along as Robin & Chris take you on her coming out late journey which is full of twists, turns, breadcrumbs and potholes galore!

Chris asks Robin some deeper, more vulnerable coming out late questions like: 

  • The point of change comes when we can longer stay the same.
  • How did you know you were gay?  How did it feel?  How comfortable were you and are you with your identity as a queer person?
  • How did you know for sure?  How long did it take to accept yourself as gay? How did you come out?
  • Did you tell anyone right away? If so, who? And how did that go?  If not, why?  Who did you feel supported and accepted by?
  • Which came first? Robin’s queerness? Or a declining and eroding marriage?
