Re: Embracing my husband's same sex attraction
@Alex1984
This is all so sad and so bizarre. It must feel so awful for him to have these reactions from his own family and I am sorry you are getting that feeling from them as well. It really goes to show that you have no idea how people will react when coming out. I am sorry you both have had to deal with this.
It really speaks to the reason that so many never feel safe coming out.
