    My ex-wife married me knowinh I was gay..As Christians we expected that Jesus would "cure me"..what never happened. We had three children and divorced. When they turned teens..she summoned them for a family meeting to reveal the secret about their father and asked them to respect and love me.She told them that I was honest from day one ..and she knew it and believed that we could overcome it. She witnessed my several attempts to remain straight and the suffering it was ..how it affect me so deeply. She is my best friend ..a loving mother and grandmother and now married to a nice guy. I owe her the freedom I have to be myself and the love and acceptance I get from my children. My name is Antonio and I write from Rio de Janeiro/Brazil.

    Sometimes the person you’re most connected to, the person you’ve loved the longest and the most, is a platonic partner.
    My soulmate is my best friend, Eli. Through all of her girlfriends and the small handful of my boyfriends, we’ve always known we are the truest of soulmates.
    A couple of times this resulted in some questioning from a girlfriend of hers. Once it even caused a boyfriend of mine to question it.
    For 35 years it’s been platonic, and for the rest of our lives it will be. But she and I will always be soulmates. Most people will never know a love like ours.

    What a wonderful story. Very touching. It illustrates beautifully that marriage, love, family and relationships come in many guises. It’s not a case of one size fits all. The main thing is that both he, his wife and their children are happy. If they have found an arrangement that works for the both of them, then brilliant. Who gives a toss what other people think? Also, his story about the public beating and humiliation at school is horrifying. I’m so sorry that he had to endure that.
