His story/their story: “I think my husband is gay” – Times of India

His story: We had an arranged marriage and now we have a child too, but I think my husband is gay and he married me to hide it from his family. I have a gay friend and whenever he comes to our parties, he tells me that my husband is clearly gay and he is hiding behind this marriage. I’m in love with him, he takes care of me, and yes now that I think about it, we rarely have sex, but he’s a devoted dad and is nice to me. I am confused, unsure and on the verge of being devastated if this is true. I don’t know how to handle this situation. I tried to ask him but he got angry. Please help.

Her Story: I care for my wife and love her too but the truth is I love men too. I realized very late in my marriage that I was bisexual. He recently met me but I was surprised to learn that he thought I was gay and that our marriage was an excuse. I really don’t know how to say it… I hid my confusion with aggression and we fought. I know this is not fair to my wife and I should let her know before she takes her mind to any other conclusion. We also have a beautiful baby boy and I’m afraid I’ll lose them both if I tell him I swing on both sides. I don’t know how she would react.

To him: I think the most important thing is to understand what is it like to be gay/bisexual? They are also human, just that they feel more comfortable even with people of the same sex. This is no longer a taboo, if it turns out to be true. Can you be his confidant, if you find out… how does it affect your life and feelings? According to me this should not happen. Because he cares about you, he is a good person and is performing all his rituals and duties properly. He’s in a relationship a lot. I think if you accept him, he will be happier than you as a partner. Yet if you feel that your husband is not the right fit for you, you can talk to him, without offending him.

To him: The best part is that you discovered your reality. That is the first step. However, now you should talk to your wife about this reality. Because truth is the foundation of any relationship. It is not good to live a double life if she cannot understand you. And if she understands you, then you are the happiest person. Make sure you make the decision and take it into confidence, and make the final decision. Since you are married, the decision has to be made by both of you as a couple. Relationships are delicate, we need to take care. After all it is a question of everyone’s life including your family.

Ayra Kaur, Self Love Mentor at Anya Wellness: It takes effort from both sides to maintain a marriage. Honesty, respect and love are the key ingredients to maintain this. Hiding, lying or manipulating the truth shakes the foundation of the relationship and it becomes difficult to trust each other as well as build a happy relationship. That’s why it’s important to give each other space and have clear and honest communication of what you think and feel, and help the other person accept reality and find a win-win way of life for both of you. Since truth cannot be changed, but can only be accepted and adjusted to live with it.
