Hey guys!
I’m troubled by something about life and was wondering if anyone has experienced anything similar to me.
I’m 31 years old and have struggled to find anything meaningful in terms of relationships my entire life. A dream of mine is to own a house with a person I love and to live a happy life. But when it comes to being in a gay relationship it seems to be so different to straight relationships. Monogamy seems to be an alien concept in nearly all relationships I’ve encountered in the gay community, even marriages seem to be open relationships.
Also, gay guys tend to only hang around with other gays guys and don’t ever have straight friends. It’s like a lot of gay guys live in a bubble where straight people don’t even exist. I love going to the pub (when we were allowed to) and watching the football, or even going to the actual games with straight friends.
It just seems like these days it’s impossible to be gay without having to be part of the whole lifestyle and dropping everything that is ‘straight’ about yourself. Please tell me there are guys out there who want a monogamous relationship where football can feature, and can mix with different types of people and it be genuine and loving. If not I may have to look at living in the forest by myself!
