For many people, being in a long term relationship means that they see a future of marriage with their partner.
But what if your partner is hiding a huge secret from you? Would you be able to accept someone who doesn’t truly love you?
A Malaysian man took to the XUAN Play Facebook page to anonymously admit that he prefers partners of the same gender despite having a girlfriend of 8 years, and asks how he should ultimately proceed with his relationship.

He wrote, “First, let me introduce myself. I am 30-years-old, male and my financial situation is pretty good. I have a girlfriend of 8 years, who is 25-years-old.”
“When we were together in our third year, I discovered that I was a rainbow (gay).”
After knowing his sexual orientation, he became conflicted over whether he should break things off or maintain his relationship with his girlfriend.

“I am the only male in my family and I am the eldest sibling. If we break up, I would feel sorry to our families. If we continue to be together, I will feel sorry for her (the girlfriend).”
“Being with her now is just so that I can have a child with the same last name as me. My feelings for her are more like for a sister. Also, because I am a rainbow, I don’t have many friends of the opposite sex. So, she feels at ease with me,” he explained.
He then ultimately asked if he should keep up the charade and maintain his relationship with his girlfriend.
What do you think he should do? Do feel free to share your thoughts in the comment section.
