Came out...

[MCFCTrick]

A close mate of mine was in a similar dilemma to the guy in the OP...

He adored his wife and son. Loved them with all his heart. But deep down he knew he was gay. They split up, and he lived his life as gay, finding a partner in London.

However, his love for his wife was so strong, he returned, as her love for him was equal, gave it another go.....resulting in another pregnancy....twin girls.

But he was still torn apart by his gay feelings....which his missus understood, and was prepared to live with. However, he was tormented...he really didn't want to be gay...but he was.

He killed himself in 2001....

Awful place to be for the OP's friends....

No dirty laundry airing, just genuinely interested in getting some male points of view on a really unusual situation.
Don't see it as tacky at all

Do you need a holiday? You do seem very snippy x

Quite right it isn't "Tacky" at all. If you want a point of view from some likeminded people whose opinions are mostly respected then where's the harm in that. Ignore Shergars Ringpiece. What do people want, just one thread talking on and on about the new kit ffs.

'Likeminded people who's opinions are respected'?
Half the folk who have posted on here are certifiable loons who's opinion I would only seek in order to do the exact opposite of what they suggest.
How do you know that total strangers are 'likeminded people' anyway?
And if they are likeminded, then there opinion won't be objective.
I would like to think that if I discussed a personal matter with a good friend then it wouldn't become an open season talking shop debate on a football forum as a result.
Is that really such a difficult concept for you to grasp?

Lets be fair, I've not posted much on this and have kept my ill informed pre concepts to my self, is he fit Ammy?

My mate's (and I do mean my mate, not me!) husband 'came out' to her yesterday.
He claims he's always been attracted to men, but has never acted on it. But he'd like to discuss the possibility of an 'Open Marriage' sometime in the future
He wants to stay married to her and loves her deeply and their sex life is better than it has been for ages.

She's obviously devastated, but still loves him, they have been a couple for years and have two children. She has no desire to be with anyone else.

What should she do? Stay and trust that he won't experiment/ cheat on her?
Or leave?

She should get DP'd a few times, she I'd she likes it, then make her decision.
