Wife has decided that she wants to date females only and is done with men. I know this has redflags everywhere. She was 18 when we met at a party i hosted. Been together 5 years, Last night she broke the news to me but I do not want her to leave. Brought up the idea of consueling and she absolutely doesnt want to do that. She feels that she doesnt need a third party judging her. Her family loves me and are very right wing like myself. Any advice that would help me save the marriage or is this one done?

I had a pretty good friend in college and at some point in our late 20s, she told me that she'd realized she was a lesbian. I met her girlfriend.

The next time I saw her was three or four years later, and she was getting married (to a man). That was nearly 20 years ago, and I think they're still married.

It might be a phase, but I don't know that that will be helpful for you now, OP. I am very sorry for you.

Sounds like a good opportunity for a 3 way.

This relationship is definitely worth saving since her family is very right wing like yourself.

marriage is a partnership. it only takes one of the partners to decide that it is over, no matter what the other partner may want.

If this isn't a troll ...

If she is a lesbian, you're not "changing her back." If she's trying to figure things out and decides down the road that women aren't what she wants, maybe she comes back to you.

There's nothing stopping you from maintaining personal relationships with her family as you go forward - or her for that matter. I have gay/lesbian friends whose opposite-sex exes are still very much a part of their lives.

She's done with men, you say? How many men has she been doing since you got married?

I don't understand how anyone can answer the op's question in good faith without a picture of this *****.

Is this the OP?



Sounds like you should date your HS crush. Might take 10 years, but you'll have a kid and get with her in the end.

Why has she been dating anybody if she was married already?

Did you call her Rachel at the altar or did she offer up a threesome with another woman that ended up being a twosome with that brunette chick named Susan from the gym

Lol, once you are in a committed relationship with someone and they decide to move on to other things, there should be no consideration of taking them back once they change their mind. Either they want to work through their issues with you or they don't. If their idea of working through their issues is by experimenting sexually with other people, that relationship is beyond the point of no return if you have any self respect.

Also this.

And, I'm confident she already has been seeing someone, or they've at the very least talked about it. It's probably happening and you just never caught her.

I think you need to move on. Hopefully y'all don't have kids because that makes things extra messy. A clean break would be best. I would promptly file on her and have her served.

You deserve better.

Sorry to hear that man. You seem to be in your 20s if I am not mistaken.

One you DO NOT DO is to grovel and beg. There is nothing more pathetic for a woman than a man begging. Don't be fooled, women love to say that they want to make their men beg but the moment they do, they start lusting after the strong and tough neighbor man who does not do any of this crap.

OK, so always keep your dignity. If she does not love you anymore and does not want to be with you, there is NOTHING you can do. You just have to deal with it and move on. I recommend that you take is slow though, give her enough time to get out of her fog if she is one and think clearly.

You also should tell her that she is free to go. But to remember that once she walks out that door, she is GONE FOREVER. You can leave, but you ain't comin' back.

If she still wants out, then move on. Make sure she doesn't take advantage of you financially.

Presuming this is not a troll I'll say I am very sorry you are going through this. I would also encourage you to go onto the website surviving infidelity, check out the forums section as well as the healing library. You will find sections devoted to exactly what you are going through. These people have how to navigate this to a science
I also DO NOT show your wife the surviving infidelity website, that will become your safe space as well as provide you strategy

Also meet with several divorce attorneys ASAP, choose the one you like best, someone that specializes in divorce, know you options, protect your assets.
Get tested for STDs, and do not be intimate with your wife, even if she love bombs you
Carry a voice activated recorder on you at all times, I've seen countless fraudulent domestic abuse claims, protect yourself from that
I'd start going through text messages, phone numbers on the phone bill etc.. you might be surprised what you find. Again secure your assets, if you both have access to bank accounts might consider moving half into an account only you can get to (check with the attorney, every state is different)
And as has been stated, DO NOT do the pick me dance. Stay strong

You have two options as I see it:

1. Learn quickly how to please a woman and bring her back from being Lesbianese.
2. Turn yourself from Bruce into Caitlyn.

OP,

This happened to a former coworker. He and his wife had been together since high school. Had two kids together.

She would sometimes seem like she wanted to spice things up for him and would bring another woman home. He realized when she wanted a divorce that the other woman had always really been for her.

It was rough on him. The kids seem to have adjusted pretty well.

Move on. If it's a phase and she tries to come back in a few years, so be it. But right now, get ready for a lot of discussions with attorneys.

She's suing you for divorce because you're not a woman? How is that your fault?

The status of your relationship does not make you who you are as a person.

This is not a relationship you need to be in. Protect yourself, your mental well-being, and your wallet by getting out of it now. This is already beyond saving. Putting it off for a while it's only going to lead to more frustration and heartbreak in the future. Cut your losses now.

Call a divorce attorney today. Listen to their advice. Do what they say.

Be polite to your wife and try to keep it amicable. Do not say anything in anger or do anything that may be construed as aggressive. She may be getting advice to record you or try to instigate something. Don't fall for it. If she hits you, walk away calmly. If she breaks something of yours that you care about, walk away.

Remember, you are the male and (despite women constantly *****ing about the patriarchy) they absolutely get almost every benefit of the doubt in every domestic court situation. Especially in Texas.

Now of course if she is the polite type and also wants this divorce, you may consider sharing an attorney and doing it amicably. But don't trust that will be the case until you talk to an attorney.

On the other hand, tell her you now identify as a woman and that she is a bigot for not realizing that she is already in a lesbian relationship.

When we say 'too young' on an engagement thread, you kids think we are joking. You don't know your elbow from your ******* when you are 23. Now you want us to be surprised she is trading in the sausage for the taco?

Score the threesome, find your pants and walk away. Try again with someone different when you hit 35.

Take everything you can

ETA If your assets are commingled, blow everything in your back accounts on a trip to a hoarhouse in Reno. With nothing to pay divorce lawyers, she'll have to settle for a simpler split and you get the **** of a lifetime.
