Is My Husband Gay?
Women search for “Is my husband gay” more than for “Is my husband having an affair?”
Sexual infidelity is often considered the ultimate betrayal; it disrupts ongoing, meaningful relationships.
When a heterosexual couple experiences infidelity and the offense is committed with someone of the same sex, it turns worlds upside down.
All relationships have rules. We expect that our partners will keep our interests in mind even when potential rewards tempt them to break the rules.
Infidelity occurs in the context of both heterosexual and same-sex relationships, although expectations may be different. In either case, when expectations are violated, the wrongdoer will have to account for his or her behavior.
Things suddenly shifted inside my head, and I went from thinking I was straight to knowing I am gay.
As I wrote in Finally Out: Letting Go of Living Straight, I know something about breaking rules. I was married with two children when I unexpectedly fell in love with a man.
There was no other way to explain what I was feeling. Until shortly before I came out to my wife, she had no idea about my conflicts about sexual orientation.
