How did you meet the woman you love? How did the relationship develop? Was she gay or straight (or both?) How long before you told her your feelings for her? How did she take it?
I was introduced to her via a friend. As time went on we started hanging out more. I caught myself waiting on her after classes were finished for the day. I caught myself doing everything she needed help with. After about a year and a half we started flirting with each other. It was kind of strange because she brought up an ex in her office one day. I wasn't even aware she knew about my ex. I became very defensive because I didn't want her to know I was "gay". She told me a couple of days later that she had been with girls in the past and that it was okay. At that point I really opened up to her about the entire situation. She was catching me at a point in my life when I was pushing it all back in. I was engaged to be married to my H. She tried to talk me out of marriage, but I didn't listen. Now I think if she had only told me, I would have walked away from the marriage at that time. We started talking about our feelings more in depth over the next couple of weeks. We met another friend for lunch and shopping, went back to my house and I couldn't stop from putting my hands on her. We have been together 2 1/2 years now. It hasn't been a smooth ride. A lot of ups and downs, but I'm trying so hard to give her the chance she deserves.
