So, ummmm....

...I probably should post this in the GLBT forum first, but I'll try it out on friendly eyes first....

My partner's father, currently married to a woman for the past 30+ years (not my partner's mother) has all but come out to my partner and I. Via email. And, by coming out, I mean repeatedly getting drunk and emailing tales of his youthful same-sex encounters, then sobering up the next day and telling us to disregard the previous email.

The latest email was more of the same, with the added ingredient of asking if my partner or I knew anyone his age, his area that he could hook up with (!)

You might figure that, being gay, I would be a little more prepared to deal with this, but I admit I'm at a loss. Partner hasn't even seen the latest email yet, I'm certain he will freak out (the one piece of information you lack is that Partner and his father had no contact for about 20 years.)

So...yeah. Advice appreciated.

In happier news, Partner and I applied for our marriage license today in DC. Civil ceremony on July 30, religious ceremony/reception on the 31st. Yippee! After 17 years we will no longer be living in sin!
