Coming out age: 35

Story:

i know this is suppose to be a coming out story, but i
 hope that it will be in the end. i have know for a
 very long time. since i was young. i have never told
 anyone and i still haven't. i plan on coming out this
 year to my family and friends. i finally feel like i
 really want to be happy and live my life the way that i
 always should have. my family asked me and accused me of
 being gay when i was young and then again at 19. i
 denied it because they made me feel as though it was
 something that i should be ashamed of. i never felt
 comfortable with who i was. i really need to be who i am. i
 haven't met anyone special yet but i know that she is
 out there some where. my life will finally be
 complete once i tell my family and friends the truth. i know
 i am gay and now it is time everyone knows it too.
