I was 18 when the realisation hit like a pile of bricks. I was all at once terrified and scared... and realised I knew absolutely noone else who might be gay. Then an incident at University caused me to nail the closet door shut... until eight years later I finally came out as gay.
Took until I was in my 50's before I realised I'm pansexual. I thought I was bi, but more attracted to men than women. Made me think I wasn't bi.
