Oh God, Julie, I'm so very sorry about that one!

So, he is gay but was married to you for so very long, had a child with you, had an affair with a woman (enough that he was sending explicit texts and using terms of endearment). Umm.... sounds like he is just even more confused and in crisis than you thought!

People don't just become or "turn' gay. It is something they have known all their lives, not a "choice". You may be right that he is just saying it so he can "prove" he didn't cheat, these MLCers are so crazy, who knows. It may just be the latest "persona" he is trying on because he isn't any happier now than before he started his journey, who knows.

So many questions come to mind...does he have a "boyfriend"? Was he experimenting with this while married to you? (That one is scary and if it is the case you will need to have some tests done, sorry). Does he plan on "coming out" to his kids and family?

Smells fishy to me, Julie. The truth will be clear about this one soon enough. Although it would add to the book. You couldn't make this stuff up and have anyone believe it! Hang in there Julie! You are going to be fine and sounds to me like you are better off now without someone as bitter and confused as he is!
