I think since coming out my "gayness" been so front and center that I was beginning to think that the only way I had to accept myself was to make that part of who I am all of who I am. I realize now that it is a part, a part that will always be there, but it does not have to rule all of my decisions and emotions. I am sure that in my search to determine my path I will have to remind myself of this realization many many times but it does take the pressure off to know that I can accept myself without letting that part of me rule everything. <br /><br />Thank You<br />Drewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05707333526815723716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4821096548419217583.post-10556076507598161052013-03-06T00:00:01.910-08:002013-03-06T00:00:01.910-08:00I have a friend, female, whose husband decided the...I have a friend, female, whose husband decided there was a young woman who was more attractive to him than his wife, so he divorced his wife to marry his lover. Unlike this man, I'm not attracted to women, but men. I'm married with children, and I often feel that other men around me are quite attractive. I would bet that every married man sometimes finds themselves attracted to someone other than their spouse. They have to decide if they want to follow their attractions or put their energy into developing their relationship with their spouse. I really think it's the same for all husbands, regardless of their orientations. My friend is now happily married to a different man. <br /><br />I realize that you will need to make the choices that are right for you and your family. I don't know of all the circumstances, and it would be wrong of me to second guess what you should choose. But you don't have to feel that your orientation forces you to choose a certain way. Make sure to make a deliberate choice that is what you truly think and feel is right for you and your family.Who Me?https://www.blogger.com/profile/06249350099327092945noreply@blogger.com
