I have sat by and read the forums and admire so many folks that are so honest in their emotions.
I am a married women and I have to say I love, deeply love my husband. My husband is bisexual and is a member of this forum. I have read many posting that have made me laugh, many have made me cry and a few have made me angry.
I will not mention any name used, I don't think that is fair. I will say though that thoughout our marriage (I have read postings he placed on this subject) we have had MANY good times, and we have had Difficult times. His sexuality has caused many "demons" inside him. I knew this person was bi-sexual before we married, even before we met I knew. It doesn't change anything about the person he is or about his spirit.
We have had sexual encounters with two men, and both of them I believe although certainly were stimulating and exciting, nothing compares to my one on one moments with this very tender man.
I know how he speaks of the demons that haunt him and how "society" believes this is wrong. Society has a funny way of making people think the laundry always has to be white to be good. Yet behind closed doors, "society" is probably the biggest offender of dirty laundry.
Our family has had medical issues that have seemed to plague us for five plus years now. But as a family you come together stronger and support each other. You don't bury things in the sand and run away.
My husband has battles with chemical abuse, and I have stood proudly by his side. When he battles with those chemicals is when we have the most problems. I tend to clam up because I know that saying anything makes him feel worse about the situation, he thinks I am "nagging" and it pushes him farther into the dark cave inside his mind where those haunting demons live.
He has been in the hospital over his depression and chemical abuse. I still stand by his side and I will continue to do so.
I share his fantasies about bisexual encounters, we openly discuss it and it is a source of sexual stimulation when we want it to be. I am not turned off by it, I embrace the man for who he is, inside and out.
I read a posting by him from last year when he is discussing his home life with me and the particular situation we were in. One person responded that it sounds like you have to get rid of this situation. In this posting my husband told of how I was not responsive to him, I pushed him away, I did not want to be intimate with him.
This is the one that made me angry. You see (just as with this posting) you never know the other side. I have heard the same things being told to me, you didn't hug me, you were silent, we haven't made love in a week, I felt alone. What I have told him is and the TRUTH is, I would try for hours to wake him up on the sofa, I would wait up until I could not longer hold my eyes open for him to come home. I would sit on the sofa crying as he slept because I was alone, I wanted love and attention so bad, I so craved it, yet the man I love was chemically in a "coma". Whether he popped it or poured it down his throat, I sat alone night after night. Then when he came back to life, I'll admit I was burning inside because if I said anything, then he would get angry and tell me I didn't have to make him feel worse. And if I mentioned that he hasn't been home or he always slept iin a chair or on the sofa and that is why we were not intimate, then I was attacking his manhood. And thus pushed him farther away.
Well pardon the hell out of me. I think I am a good wife and mother, I think I am not perfect in anyway and I believe I can go from pussycat to superbitch in record time. But I have stuck by this man and the problems he faces, no WAIT the problems WE FACE. I am there with him.
We have been married for about ten years now and I found out for over 3/4 of our marriage he has been having an affair. Ongoing right under my nose. I have asked many, many times and even have been friends with this WOMAN, yes a woman. I would probably feel better if I knew it was a man.
So as the people post things in here, just understand that there are two sides to each story. I guess one trying to justify the other.
I don't know where my marriage is headed, but I do know that if my marriage ends, it will have nothing to do with his bisexual side, it will be because how can you TRUST a man that has lied to you for nearly ten years? Then in that there are two sides as well. The side I love is telling me how awful he felt and that it really wasn't good. Then the Other Woman telling me how aroused he was and in great details what they did and when.
What side do you believe?
Anyway I guess I just wanted to vent. I love this man, bisexuality and all. And up until my discovery I believed he loved me too. But how can someone love you when then have led a secret life for so many years?
Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive!!!
Are there other wives out there that live this?
My husband has also said I do not accept his sexuality, NOT TRUE
OK, I think I have vented enough. God Bless. :bibounce:
p.s. no spell check so forgive any errors, I am hurt, angry and torn.
