Please oo get this right, i am not the one involved here oo. Just saw this and decided to seek your opinion on this. A woman who has been married found out that her hubby has been cheating on her not even with another woman, but with a man. Read her story below:
I’m
47, married at 30 and thought I’d made a great choice in my husband. I
didn’t go for looks or superficial things like some of my friends. I
didn’t need love at first sight. I chose someone who seemed to be a good
person: a friend whom I grew to love.
Over
the years, however, he started to get very moody and nasty and I had to
tread on eggshells, as did our two teenage children. We had no sex for
the last two years; it was infrequent before then. But he could be good
company and from the outside we seemed the perfect couple.
A
month ago, my son went to use his father’s smartphone and found links
to a gay website. He then searched and found a second mobile phone. On
it were dozens of explicit texts from men my husband had had sex with.
It’s been a complete bombshell.
I’ve
found out that gay men often marry (an estimated four million in the
U.S.), but when their lust for men doesn’t go away, they take their
anger out on their wives and children and make our lives unbearable.
My
husband is in complete denial, saying he isn’t gay, but it’s a ‘tiny
part’ of him — despite it being important enough to risk, and lose, his
family. I’ve told him the marriage is over and he’s moved out. I feel
I’ve been the victim of a conman, yet we’re still on friendly terms,
unable to detach from each other properly because we have our own
business.
I’m trying to minimise contact, but we still text and see each other a few times a week.
Although
I grieve, I’m also staying positive, keeping busy, exercising, reading
about how to deal with break-ups etc. There must be so many women (and
men married to lesbians) who are suffering like this. Though devastated,
I am pleased my son saved us from even more years of misery.
But
it does seem to be the case that when these lying, cheating, abusive
gay men finally come out they are lauded as heroes and no one even
thinks about what they’ve done to their wives and children —damaging our
ability to trust.
Obviously,
I’m only talking about gay husbands who trick their wives, not about
gay men who live their lives bravely and honestly.
So
far I’ve been telling people he cheated on me and they assume with
another woman. How much should I tell other people about what he’s done,
considering that he intends to stay completely in the closet and could
possibly trick another woman in the future?
