his whole life was being in the military and going to Annapolis.

 

My father went to the Naval Academy and was career Navy, I'm a military brat, and I work for the Navy Department as a civilian. Of all his grandchildren only my one boy has wanted to follow his granddad to Annapolis. The drive has been there since childhood. He's also applying to NROTC programs at other colleges, but I'm praying he gets in, he wants it so much. There's something about that dream that is very powerful.

Based on what you've said about your son, im thinking he has a great shot at it. :)

I wonder if we have any congressmen on here, or someone who knows a congressman :p who could hook BB up with a recommendation :p

Even if gay uncle spilled the beans or cache clearing failed, it is obvious that the twins and their older brother are willing to patiently wait for Dad to come out when he is comfortable doing so. The interesting thing about all this is that they (Dad and sons) are all probably waiting for each other bc of good intent. That's the sitcom of Life.

As I picture the eventual conversation, I don't know which would be better, the hugs and love that @glennnn got, or "um, duh, Dad."

You say you're a bottom...do you have a stash of dildos? Kids snoop.

LOL. No, no dildos in the house, no porn DVDs, no poppers, etc. I am a total bottom, but I don't plan to go into THAT with the boys.

 

If I discover that they, or someone else, was able to intuit this aspect of me, it'll be fascinating. I think-- think-- that I fly pretty far under the gaydar, just a jockish neighborhood dad, coaching his kids' teams, a widower and single father who's focused on his kids. I've had women flirt with me, bot not men. I don't think my own gaydar is good-- remember, my boys knew their teacher was gay and I didn't have a clue. So maybe people who recognize it in others have some insight I've never developed, or that I repressed during my years of denial.

If I start pursuing a social life with men, there'll be a huge learning curve. I've never been to a gay bar, never been on a date with a guy, never flirted with one. And I don't know how one identifies a top or a bottom socially, or even if one does. I assume it gets discussed before you get to the bedroom?

Some discuss, some don't. If you want to ease your way in I suggest getting involved with one of the gay sports leagues or teams - the rugby teams tend to have a mix of straight guys in there and you may be more comfortable in that setting.

That's a great idea, thanks! I just googled and DC even has a gay basketball league. I had no idea.
