Hey, I need to get something off my chest that's been eating me up inside. I'm 32, bisexual, and I've been married for 13 years since I was 21. My wife and I have two kids, and I love her deeply-both emotionally and physically. But I've been struggling with something for a long time. I have a really high sex drive, and no matter how much I love being with my wife, it's never enough to fully satisfy me. She doesn't have the same drive, and it's been a challenge for us throughout our marriage.
My wife knows that l'm bi. About 8 years ago, she caught me on Snapchat, chatting with guys and sending pictures. She forgave me and accepted that l'm bi, but she made me promise I wouldn't cheat on her again. Since then, we've never really talked about the gay part of my life again-it's just been this thing we both ignore. But because of that, I feel like I've been living two lives.
I've kept watching gay porn and have gotten back on Grindr-chatting with guys and even meeting up. I know it's wrong, and I feel terrible about cheating on her. But the temptation is so strong, and with the freedom I have at work, it's been easy to give in. I feel caught between two parts of myself, and it's hard to reconcile.
Leaving my wife and kids isn't an option-I love them too much, and I want to be there for them. But at the same time, I'm struggling with my faith. I want to do the right thing and be righteous, but I keep falling short and giving in to my desires. I feel weak and stuck in this cycle, and I don't know how to break out of it.
Any advice ?
