Question - (7 November 2008) 4 Answers - (Newest, 7 November 2008)
A female South Africa age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Hii there. My boyfriend and I have been together for about 3 and a half years. We love each other to pieces. But the other day he sat me down and said that he wanted to get something off his chest. He told me that before he knew me he was openly gay. Not camp or anything, but gay. I know that knowing this shouldn't affect anything between us, but when we're alone together, I just can't seem to get as close to him as we were before he told me this. (When I mean close I mean like intimate). Why am I being like this and how can I get over it? thanks xx L. Osborne

BlondeBabe x agony auntMaybe you just need to time to adjust

you have been together nearly 4yrs and i think you give it a chance.

But if this all starts to get t much maybe it would be time to let go.

In your heart you will know.

Good Luck x

You're a bit young yet, so if you want to, enjoy his company but bear in mind that a man is either a homosexual or he's not. I don't buy this 'Bisexual' business at all. To my mind he may have been experimenting with men in the past but has now come to realise he isn't that way inclined now that his hormones have settled down. Either that, or he's fighting his real inclinations by being with you.

Whichever, it will always be in the back of your mind and you're unlikely to remove it from your memory bank.

I wouldn't plan too far ahead if I were you.
