<font color="yellow"> </font> my fiance and i have been together for 9 months now.when we first got together he was wearing bras and womens underwear. he has stopped wearing the bras last december, but continues to wear womans underwear. its gotten so bad that hes always looking on ebay for new panties and told me he wont even try to wear mens underwear-what do i do? hes been know to watch gay porn and or bi sexual porn. im straight and never wanted to have that lifestyle. i love him but dont like the things he does. he also has tons of womens clothing packed up that he use to wear. ive been told that he use to wear lingerie with his ex wife. is he gay, or what is he? im confused and it kinda makes me sick sometimes--someone please give me some advice.

I would say you either need/have to accept his lifestyle or move on. not sure I could live with my husband if he had that lifestyle either. I can't say whether your guy is gay or not but I think he won't change either. you haven't been together for very long for sure. I think it would be easier to move on now rather than later. good luck

thank u bebop for tha reply. i do love him very much. and i want to love him for him but its really hard when he secretly looks up things that i wouldnt look up.he says hes not bi or interested in guys but sometimes i wonder??? and when we first got together he had a myspace page and on that page he listed himself as bi-sexual,when i asked him about it he said his ex put that on there, and of course i thought ok so why didnt you change it. he did eventually.

You need to sit down with him and talk about these things. Ask him to help you understand what it is and what it means to him. Wearing women's underwear doesn't make him gay, since people can cross-dress and that might be as far as they go and might not have anything to do with their preference for partners. But it sounds like he's into some other stuff too, and it concerns me that he seems to be hiding that from you. But that might just be how I read it. If he will be honest and tell you about his lifestyle and what it means to him, then you two can decide what each of you can live with and what you can't, and work out whether or not you can make this work.

thank u for the reply.ive tryed talking to him in the past and all he tells me is that he wont even try to wear mens underwear because supposedly every type is uncomfortable to him.i got him to stop wearing bras==thank god. that was really wierd for me.hes always looking up womans panties and crossdressers underwear on ebay- it kinda grosses me out.his favorite color is pink and he actually wears pink shorts around the house.his family doesnt know he does these things,every time i do try to talk to him he gets real defensive about the subject. i love him and he is very sexy when i overlook his female side. he actually looks alot like stone cold steve austin.

hon he is hiding alot from you. if he is listed on adult sites as bi then I bet he is and maybe he is trying to go straight beging with you. though I would not bet on it working. again I see big huge red flags.

Why do you want him to be something he's not?
Why do you insist that he change to fit your ideal?

It does sound as if he's got some sexual issues he needs to work through...But if you aren't willing to work WITH him and be supportive of HIS choices, then maybe you two shouldn't be a couple.

I've had people try to change me to be their "perfect" partner, and it just made me feel worthless and unwanted and resentful. I tried to change, but then I wasn't myself anymore. I can't pretend, and I shouldn't have to.

Nobody should have to pretend.
Why can't you just accept him the way he is?
Either that or let him go free to find out who he really wants to be.

You have two choices 1) accept him the way he is or 2) get out of the relationship. You’ll never truly change him, he'll just hide it better. If you want a long term relationship with him you have to love him warts and all. So the ball is in your court, do you love him the way he is or the way you wish he was?

It sounds like he's confused too. Perhaps he's not ready for a long term relationship.

He's definitely not being honest with you and maybe not himself either. If this is who he is and this is not who you want as a partner then I will have to agree with kendyll. You have to let him go. You're not talking about having to deal with leaving his socks in the middle of the floor. This is a biggy and if who he is make you ill just to think about it, how could you love him? This is a big part of what makes him, him. Or is it that you're just physically attracted to him? Lust not Love? You have some serious soul searching to do.

well everyone i finally broke down and talked to him about it and he got real defensive, tryed to deny it until i showed him all the weird things hes been looking up on the computer. all he could say was so what and tryed to tell me he told me about all this when we got together----no he didnt.he did tell me 9 months ago that him and his ex wife were into being swingers and role playing, well he knows by now im not like that and i wont be. so im back to square one again.

(((((lovefrogs71))))) I'm sorry that this relationship hasn't worked out, but as hard as it is, look at the silver lining, you found out before you got married.

Just because is confused about their own sexuality doesn't make them gay. That sort of stuff floats some peoples boats and not others. I wouldn't necessarily be weird, but let him know that you want to understand his sexuality and that is he ever felt the need to experience else where to let you know before ya'll get hitched.
Thanks for this!

thank you for the reply and i dont want to understand his sexuality. he already knows i dont like things like that and im not going too. but i do love him i guess i will just overlook it and deal with it. if he ever does go for a guy though i will leave him and he does know that.
