scifimikeYou would have thought that by my late 40s I would know who I am, that I would be comfortable in my own skin. And, for the most part, I am. I quite happily accept the labels Metalhead, Bookworm, Pagan, Goth, Geek and Father.
There are two more, recent acquisitions, that I'm learning how they apply to my life, how they represent my view of myself. Divorcee. Bisexual.
And yes, they are connected. My wife threw me out at the beginning of 2018 after we both discovered I have an attraction to Chris Hemsworth, specifically as Thor in Thor: Ragnarok. She accused me of all number of vile, hurtful things, including but not limited to lying to her for the last 15 years.
From my perspective, I was not lying to her, I had not realised I had an attraction to him, or to any man. Although, over the last year I am realising it may have been repressed and I'm definitely attracted to much more men than I previously realised. I am, however, still very attracted to and turned on by women.
This is me saying for the first time 'out loud' - My name is Mike, and I am bisexual.
