(2,975 posts)That's part of the problem. This is my life. I've got a wife I adore and is truly my better half. A girlfriend who is an an Hr workhorse for her employees, her wife who I go to fights and concerts with and is one of my best friends. I have another girlfriend (amazing artist) and her husband who is also my boyfriend and we are a roving pile of laughter. These people are my life, my world. We fell into this at different points in our lives and discovered slowly we were something even our most liberal friends found abhorrent. We found our peace even with the derision and skepticism of folks where you are. It takes work. It takes time, just like any relationship. I hear it constantly tracked over with mud from people who I otherwise adore on this and other boards. We try and set a good example but damn does the opposition (unfortunately here, you) make it hard to exist or be as out and free as we could be. As we everyone ought to be.
