Ep. #89: Coming Out Late to My Husband, Adriana's Story, Part 2
Coming Out Late
Taking Space and Moving Forward
This chapter explores the importance of taking space and moving into a separate room as a healthy step in the process of figuring things out in a relationship, as well as the decision to start seeing other people.
In this Part 2 episode of the Coming Out Late podcast, Robin continues the conversation with Late Bloomer Adriana and her co-parent and current husband, Darius. You’ll hear how they walk us through their process of managing their marriage, their families and their futures during and after Adriana’s recent awakening of her sexuality. For reference, Adriana no longer identifies herself as a heterosexual woman.
In this episode you will learn…
- Wanting something more for yourself, or something different for yourself, doesn’t mean leaving what you have is ever easy.
- Who leaves the house when a ‘separation’ is the next step?
- How do ‘things’ FEEL in your body? Your body never lies to you - it just takes getting very still and very honest with yourself to ‘feel the truths’ it offers.
- We ALL have those, “...what the hell am I doing?” moments. All of us!
- If you’re not sure about ‘separation’ - try moving into a spare bedroom, or set up a space and a place for you to sleep other than the marital bedroom you share.
- Continuing the strong post-marital bond long into the future, and how do future partners fit into that scenario?
- “...Leaving for a feeling and a thought…? What am I, crazy?”
