    Keeping it together is making me exhausted. I just want to lie in bed for a week. Wanting to make it work with my wife while at the same time pulling away more often than I should be.

    HI ZenFix-
    I can relate, I am not out to my wife, but she senses there is something wrong or different about me. I hate being elusive, but I am thinking of her feelings, and how devastated she might be to know of my internal conflict. Thanks for your post, it is so helpful knowing there are others like me struggling with similar issues.

    I came out a couple months ago, now dealing with the fallout. It has helped her though in knowing that there was another explanation for what was going on. That there wasn't something wrong with her.

    Hi Zen,
    I feel the same way. Like Mikelhpc228 I'm not out to my wife and the stress of trying to hold everything together has drained me to the point of just giving up. I commend you for having the strength to not only tell her but to try and make it work with her. I can't even imagine what that must be like.
