Re: Lost and Scared
I can’t say I’m in the same situation. I have known for longer but I’ve tried to make things work. It is really hard situation to be in. Between not wanting to be hurt, wanting your partner to be happy to. I think it’s good you stood up for yourself. My husband has said things like he feels lost and doesn’t know what he wants in life and I guess it makes him feel like in a prison because he can’t be himself and do gay things without consequences but form what I’ve learned he doesn’t ever things about them.
It’s such a messed up situation when sexually your partner can’t be content.
