My wife and I have been married for a lil over a year now. We've been together as a couple for about 21months now. All my friends and colleagues know I'm gay and married except for my parents. My wife on the other hand, she just came out to her parents that she's gay last summer. She was pretty much straight before she met me. I was her first gf and then her wife. She refuses to tell her friends and family and her colleagues that she is married. I on the other hand feel really offended in a sense. I can't quite grasp why it's necessary for her to do so. It really hurts me inside. Her defense is that she doesn't force me to come out to my parents. So, I shouldn't bug her about telling pple she's married. But, I think my situation about coming out to my parents isa lil different. My parents are asian and traditional. They would send me to a psychiatric home to get tested. I'm out to pretty much the world about everything about me. But, she is hiding it from everyone. There's a difference. I JUST DON"T GET IT. Someone please help me to get some answers.
I think these problems should have been addressed before marriage. There is no solution other than talking to her.
Could it be a simple matter of the possibility that she may have trouble if she say she's married to another woman? Or maybe there's just not much advantage in having people know? Does she actually deny being married or does she simply not say. What is it exactly that you want from her?
So you're complaining about her not coming out to her friends and family but you haven't come out to your parents when she has? Everyones friends / family are different. Some people may find it easier to talk to friends and some may find it easier to talk to family. God knows I trouble talking to both friends and family about anything to do with my sexuality. In the end I realized neither of them cared what I was. If my parents told me to go see a psychiatrist I'd tell f*** off and leave me alone until they released it was my life and they had no business telling me what to do. Ronnie
