Older guys first time ...

So last night I (54) had my first gay experience after being afraid of admitting to myself and others what I was my whole life...

The thing is I found a really sweet man who really was gentle and caring who I slept with last night.

My question is something I'm a bit embarrassed about as I'm someone who doesn't get very emotional but after my experience last night I broke down and sobber when he went home I felt like after the deed I was who I was meant to be, it was happy tears but I don't understand why the crying ?

Has anyone had this happen to them or have a suggestion as to why I'm emotional lol
