I'm not a spring chicken, married to a wonderful woman, and all of the kids are raised and on their own. I feel stupid because I'm in my early 50s and questioning/exploring my sexuality which seems ridiculous but here I am.

It's kind of lonely because I know my wife wouldn't understand these desires so I know these fantasies will always be just that.
