Today’s topic: The Man I Love Is A Female Dear Steve, I’ve been dating a man for three years. When we first started to date, everything was good. The sex was great, as well. Two years into the relationship, he asked to marry me. So I said yes. The first thing I did was call up all my family and friends to give them the good news. I asked him when was he going to tell his family and when was I going to meet them? We’d been together for a year and I had not met or saw one picture of his family. He told me, “In due time.” I heard the story for so long, I was sick of hearing it. So, one night, when he was asleep I went through his phone. I dialed the number that said Mommy. To my surprise, on the other end, it was this old lady saying, “Kim, honey that’s you?” I answered her by saying, “No, I’m Shay, your son’s soon-to-be wife.” The woman answered me by saying, “I only have one child, her name’s Kim.” My heart dropped, without giving her a chance to say anything, I hung up. Tears rolled down my eyes. The man I love is a female. That explained sex in the dark and never meeting his, well,
her family. Please tell me what to do. Should i stay or leave?
