Hi, I was recently broken up with by my boyfriend of a year because a few months ago I found out he was confused about his sexuality,and he feels like he needs to be with guys to find out about himself. I found out he was looking at gay porn, and we had a long talk about his situation, that he may be bisexual and is confused. But we decided to stay together because we had a good relationship and still felt a lot for each other. Over the summer, he became more and more curious about guys, and his feelings of wanted to be with them sexually grew. He didn't want to hurt me by staying in the relationship and then later on down the line decide he wants to be with guys. But there was nothing wrong with our relationship currently. We had a lot of fun together, went on 2 trips this summer that were great, and still had good sex. He said he is still attracted to me, but he just needs to be with guys. I am really sad because I was very happy with him, and could see a future with him. I am accepting of his potential bisexuality, and could possibly be okay with an unconventional relationship. I need advice. What should I do? We have talked once in the week since the break up, and it was a good talk. We didn't breech the subject of whether he was happy about his decision, or any possibility of getting back together. But I really want to discuss that, because he told me he hasn't slept much this week at all and that to me indicates he isn't settled with his decision to just break up with someone he really cared about. In other words, is there hope that we could work something out? I really want to stay some sort of a couple, even if that means being okay with other potential partners. HELP!

Hopingforhappening, welcome to the forum

You are the only one who can decide what is good for you. This you can discuss with your ex-boyfriend and tell him about it. That way you leave it to him to decide for himself. To break up because one is hurting his partner is not a viable reason. That partner herself should decide whether or not a break up is what she wants. (If there are alternatives existing she can emotionally handle).

So, this is what I advise you to do:

DO talk about it with him (only if you are 100% sure you don't care. not only not now but also not later in the long run) and ask him if the breakup is something HE wants, because you don't.

Good luck
