My former girlfriend dumped me and was now with my best male friend. Had I been betrayed by both of them?
Before I could even think to ask my girlfriend to marry me, I was absolutely sure of another thing: I needed to confess to her that I was attracted to guys.
I would look and feel more "normal" if married. I would definitely fit into the Christian world better. So, I decided to try out dating a girl.

I can't help that I am attracted to men. I can look at my life and see both nature and nurture contributing to my sexuality.
Before I was even dating or at all interested in my wife, I had sex with another man. I have regretted this decision every day of my life since.
I had never really liked a girl like this. I had attempted dating girls before...but this time, I was seriously head over heels for this girl.
