Outen how exactly was it with you?

My coming out was not so pleasant.
I didn't have a girlfriend for a long time, not until I was 32. When I was 17, the neighbor's son, who was 8 years older, gave me gay books to read, then at 27 I moved to Lausanne and the neighbor's son from my parents' weekend house, who was 8 years older, also lived there. I had known him since I was 4 years old. I also talked shop with him about classic cars.I told him that I had ordered gay videos because I was so surprised at what two men were doing and then he told me that when they came, he would like to watch them with me.Then we watched them together and that's when it happened. A wonderful, discreet friendship developed, which pleased both of us. He told me he was also bisexual until February 2004. When I met and fell in love with my first wife in 1992 at the age of 32, the secret relationship with my colleague remained. I'd go to his place from time to time and we'd have something to eat for dinner, then we'd watch various gay videos and so on.
Dec. separation from 1st girlfriend.
Coming out to my old Opel and Ford colleagues in Dec. 2003, because I thought some of them were like me. They've been avoiding me ever since.
In 2004, I came out to my parents about the neighbor's son. It wasn't so pleasant either, because my mother always had an aversion to homosexuals.
I had to take my parents to the neighbor's son to discuss things. My parents had a good relationship with his parents, which broke down. I had to answer to the neighbor's son's father.
I've had a girlfriend since July 2010, now a flatmate. I kept her secret from my mother for over 6 months. I told her about my bi tendencies because my mother wanted to tell her. She always says a little bi doesn't hurt.
When I introduced my girlfriend to my mother, my mother wanted to tell her. Then my girlfriend told my mother that she knew. My mother was shocked.
