I love my best friend who is gay. He's amazing and we click so well. I'm pretty sure he feels the same way but because I cant be 100% certain, I can't do anything about it.

Does anyone know of any gay men who've ended up with women?

I have known quite a few gay men marry a woman, and say that they aren't normally attracted to women, but THIS person is so special and they marry, have kids etc, and seem very happy.

The thing is, a significant number of those marriages don't work in the long term, I suspect that it is more the idea of being 'normal' and being easy to have a partner and kids that is the attraction.

I know of 2 that still work 20 years down the line. I would say that both men were probably bisexual and didn't have the vocabulary to express that at the time.

That is obviously an opinion, but if a male gay friend told me they were marrying a woman, I would be worried for them.
