We don't have cable so I haven't been able to observe it yet, though I've read some about it.
It's a new reality present about gay Mormon men and their wives and families, and how they cope with the conflict between their church and their sexual orientation. For me, it's caring of sad watching the clip above and seeing everything these guys are putting themselves through. The depression, increased suicide rates, 55-80% divorce rate, the stigma, and all the work the put into conforming, only to be alienated by the community they're trying to hard to remain in. At least they hold a support group.
For me it seems incredibly unfair that someone is forced to choose between being cut off from the society they've spent their entire lives in and repressing something so fundamental about themselves, and dealing with all the psychological and passionate problems that enter with that. I understand that every community has it's rules, both explicit and implicit, but it sad that th
(Closed) I believe my husband may include no idea he’s gay.
I think you have bigger issues than believing your husband is gay… Like having married him in the first place; sounds like you’ve never been happy in this ‘relationship.’
I’m not entirely sure what you want to hear either. You say you’re unhappy and want to leave, etc but you also utter you’re going to let him contain his way and not get a divorce. You’ve already resigned yourself to being unhappy so are you just venting or execute you want us to tell you your husband is gay to craft you feel better?
He doesn’t sound lgbtq+, to be perfectly honest. He has a family member who is queer but everyone else in his family is against it so I’m sure his attitude is a result of his upbringing. You have no proof that he is in fact male lover and I undergo like you’re accusing him to build yourself feel beat about your failing marriage.
If you need to be truly happy in existence, you’re going to have to carry out it without him because you’re obviously not on the same page. Doesn’t sound like you ever were.

What Would You Do If You Found Out Your Husband Was Gay?
It’s funny. As he came out of the closet, I felt like I was creature forced in. No-one understood. No-one really knew what to state. When he came out, he was greeted with encouragement and affirmation. There were support groups for gay married men, forums where he could discuss what he was going through. He was finally being true to himself, forging a new individuality, taking his destiny into his own hands. I was left alone to pick up the pieces. Unseen. Unheard.
We met in our late teens and the attraction was instant: he was very cute, and always had a bevy of adoring women hanging out of him, but he seemed to only possess eyes for me. We had the same sense of humour, liked the same things, and six weeks later, we hooked up and were one of the first couples in the gang to marry and reside down.
The first question everyone asks me is, did I contain any idea back then about his sexuality? Any inkling? And the answer is no, I didn’t. But then again, I don’t think he did either. Not really. We were new and fairly innocent. I, for one, didn’t have much to compare it to. Our sex life was normal, even though it was usually on his terms, b

The clearest way to know if your husband is gay is if he tells you. If the husband is honest with both you and with himself (read: How Do I Perceive If I Am Gay?

Unfortunately, it is estimated that 50% of gay husbands hide their homosexuality from their wives and don't reach this place of honesty on their hold. In many cases, it is the wife, who after suspecting that something is wrong, must confront the gay husband with the evidence, and only then can honestly be achieved.
