Summary at a Glance

I get many emails from people in your situation, and I always promise one thing – you are not letting anyone down by being gay.

No one bats an eyelid about my sexuality where I live now, but I feel sad at the thought of becoming estranged from the people I love the most.

This week we hear from a reader who, after years of struggling with his identity, has finally embraced his sexuality and moved to a new city, leaving his long-term partner and fiancee behind.

Read the advice below, but before you go, don’t forget to read last week’s column about a woman who, while pregnant with another man’s baby, can’t stop thinking about her ex.

Although I haven’t met anyone I want to be serious with, I’ve been able to explore my sexuality in a way that I never have before, and there’s no doubt that being with another guy is exactly what I need.
