I'm not sure why I'm posting this, I desperately need someone to talk to but there isn't anyone I can talk to about this.
My wonderful husband of eighteen years has tonight told me he is gay. I feel like my safe and happy world has been turned upside down. I didn't realise how much pain I could feel. I can barely see the keyboard for crying, no matter how much I try I can't stop.
I love him so much and I know he loves me as he is so very sad that he has caused me so much pain after promising never to hurt me. I don't want to leave him, but I don't know how to go forward, can a marriage based on love and friendship work if you both want it to. What if he meets someone or if I do, there are so many questions going through my head. I'm sad, scared, angry and lonely.
I'm sorry for posting as I'm mainly a lurker, but I see that this board helps so many people, and I really need some help.
The desperately unhappy baker.

Feel like my heart has been ripped out tonight.
