Your text was just fine. Now, it's up to him to at least honor your request and respect you for who you are.
I do hope that you can put this "personal" issue to bed and soon so that you can continue to focus on YOU. Until that situation comes to light, it's going to be in the back of your mind.
Good luck!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
