A reader, anonymous, writes (13 September 2007):

I think admitting bi-sexuality is a brave thing to do. I don't agree with it but can understand how hard it must have been and I admire anyone who can overcome fear.

I think I would feel betrayed by such a revelation. How long has he known he had this desire? Can he be trusted?

I think what you are feeling is valid.

Sexual orientation and expectations are a big deal and should be discussed before getting into an intimate relationship. Honesty on all fronts is always the best policy.

I think if he can remain faithful and if he can be devoted to you and only you is what you really want to know. Any person regardless of sexual desire is capable of this.

You want a commitment of fidelity and this new reveal threatens this.

Feel your feelings, express them. It is fair to say I feel betrayed by this. I feel like I have been mislead by who you are. I am angry and I am hurting. I don't know how to deal with this. What does this mean to me? To us?

Prepare yourself Love. There may be no happy ending for you and him. It may be you love him and have devoted your heart, mind, body, soul to him and it is not reciprocated.

I wish the best for you.

*hugs*

"...is this the end for us ?"

No, you will be a part of his life for the rest of yours, because of the child.

But anyway, you said EX boyfriend, so what's your problem? Are you homophobic? Why would it be the end just because you're homophobic? I don't get it.

Need more info.
