WRONG TEAM
This is a great coming out story.
I think that his is fairly common. There must be a psychological term for it. Something more than "denial".
Many guys I know had the same. Celebrity couples were a particular target but, as it happens, dating a girl or being friends with a girl because of her boy friend is just the same.
I did it.
I woke up.
I now have all that I ever wanted or, actually, everything that I didn't realize I could have, with my husband of 37 years.
I like what he says about the realities. Sickness, health, fights over the dishes, breakups over things that hardly seemed important in hours. All that.
No airbrushing.
Still, it all starts with being on the right team so you get a chance. A lot of guys did not. Have not yet.
I am so happy for young men and women who are so much closer to finding their way than we were in my time.
