Husband told me he is bi-sexual

  • 'You are either my husband or you are a [strike]single[/strike] divorced man. Your choice.'

    Having sex with somebody else when married is adultery, the gender of the person they have sex with is entirely irrelevant.

    I'd also suggest that, as it's his idea/choice, that he is the one to pack his bags and move into a grotty bedsit somewhere.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Don't be so sure , politcorrectness could easily make it detrimemtal to your case with your solicitor tiptoeing for fear of being accused of hate crime and homophobia.
    The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
    Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.

    I'm not gay so far from an expert on the matter but if he is gay I very much suspect this just won't cut it. There's a world of difference between having sex with a man and taking part in anal based sexual activity with a woman.

    Having re-read the OP, I'm more inclined to this view too. I had thought he could be muddling up a desire for anal sex with being gay, but I'd missed the part about oral sex in the OP.

  • Have you asked your husband how he would feel if you came home one day and told him you were happy with him and wanted to stay married, but you are finding that sex with just one person is not want you want. Therefore you will sleeping with other men and expect him to be comfortable with that and let you do so.

    What would be his answer?

    That is exactly the question I would have asked at the time. Problem is, he'd likely say, "Yep, no problem" as he is so desperate to cheat on his wife.

    For me, it's a no-brainer. Man, woman, horse or dog, you have sex with someone else we are done - whether you've told me about it before you do it or not. 20 years marriage or 1 year, I couldn't handle the jealousy. For me, marriage has to be monogamous.

    I'd also struggle with the fact that this had been kept a secret for so long. It makes a mockery of the whole marriage IMO.

    *Shrugs* That's life; it's a b1tch. Would the OP rather we dressed it up all pretty? I know I wouldn't and besides, that's the deal when you ask a whole raft of random strangers their thoughts and opinions on something so personal. You ARE going to hear some unpleasant truths.

    I'd be very surprised if she wasn't already thinking that herself, tbh.

    Yes, but some of us try to be sensitive in our replies. Others are jumping to wild conclusions and saying things which in my opinion aren't at all helpful.
