COMING OUT I told my wife and it went really well (Update)
I recently posted here about my anxiety over coming out to my wife.
Well, earlier this week I did it, and it went well. I told her how I felt, and that it didn’t change anything about how I love her and want to be with her and only her. There were a few moments of silence that felt like hours, then she just hugged me.
We talked for a good hour or so about it all. I’ve only just accepted my bisexuality myself, so there were lots of questions and only a few clear answers. She said she was proud of me. I didn’t know what to expect, so I was glad this was her reaction.
I just wanted to share my experience here as several people replied to my original post, and they really gave me the courage to have the conversation. So to those people, thank you so much and I hope you see this 🩷💜🩵
The past few days have been nice and I feel like we’ve become closer. I can tell she is still processing the news and she did say she may explore it with her therapist. I was told to expect this and I completely respect that it’s a big piece of news in our relationship.
I feel so much lighter now, and I’m looking forward to learning more about bisexuality and what it means for me moving forward.
