[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This was me until I sorted out in intensive therapy that I was and always have been physically and emotionally attracted to women, but didn’t want to admit it, so attempted to have a traditional life w/DH and our kids. I was miserable. And couldn’t see myself living a hetero life for the rest of my life. Luckily, we had an incredible marriage counselor who helped us sort out all of the feelings and devise a co-parenting plan that has been wonderful for everyone. We center the kids in everything we do — still lots of family outings and we vacation together sometimes, too. But I’m now out and gay and happy. Best of luck. Been there. It’s a rough road.

But would you prefer to be divorced or in an open marriage? Why would an open marriage be more desirable to either of you?[/quote]

We are divorced. My point was that I started where OP is — trying to figure out ways to maintain my current life w/out blowing it up too much. But it took a lot of personal work to get to the point that I accepted who I am. It wasn’t until then that it was clear a divorce was necessary (for us) and that an alternative arrangement wouldn’t work/wasn’t the answer. [/quote]
