Recovering from Cheating | Identifying the Underlying Causes of Infidelity in Gay Relationship
I’ll admit it—I was a novice at dating, but I tried my hardest to love the man who showered me with gifts. He provided me with European vacations, cars and an offer of lifetime commitment, but I couldn’t fully reside into our affair . I was too wide-eyed and curious. I wanted to know what it would feel enjoy to sleep with other people and date other individuality types. I was desperately searching for the dream human I had made up in my head.
Without being fully aware of it, I lived under the assumption that the perfect man was out there waiting for me. Even though my lover of the period was enamored with me and my personality, his affection was no link for my savage and unrestrained curiosity.
I was caught in perpetual ambivalence: I wanted him so desperately, but I couldn’t commit. I loved him, but I didn’t understand with certainty if I would be happy. I was ready to put down roots but leary that I might regret a permanent decision. I’m sad to declare I was too uncertain in my value and my lovability.
The poor chap. He made every attempt to convince me of his love, and
‘I’ve come to terms with the fact I am a cheater’: relationships and infidelity in the same-sex attracted community
While gay men welcome non-monogamy and sexual liberation more than heteros, the rates of cheating are still high. Jace Alexander explores cheating and why honesty and communication are important.

A recent cover story and survey by same-sex attracted men’s health magazine FS revealed surprising results around the number of same-sex attracted or bisexual men that had cheated on their partners.
In Britain, just under 1,000 men were interviewed, with 52 per cent of respondents admitting to cheating on their partner and 58 per cent declaring they had been cheated on. But the revelations didn’t terminate there.
The survey also highlighted some of the sexual habits and tolerances of the British gay and bisexual male population.
For instance, 61 per cent of men said they would break up with their partner if they had been unfaithful, while 29 per cent weren’t sure and would consider sticking by their man.
In 2018, cheating on a partner is as easy as picking up your smartphone and logging onto any of the available sex apps. Within minutes of opening up Scruff, Hornet, or Grindr, someone

How LGBTQ+ Couples Can Mend After an Affair
Updated August 28, 2022
Affairs and infidelity are more painful than ever. Due to technology, the person who uncovered the infidelity often now sees a replay of the entire betrayal. The intimate texts. The sexy emails or photos . Sometimes even the XXX rated videos. And with ex-partners just a click away on social media, affairs are everywhere.
Undisclosed hook-ups are painful in relationships, but affairs are torturous. Affairs are defined by secret emotional and intimate physical involvement.
For LGBTQ+ couples who want to revive and repair their relationships after an affair there is good reason to be hopeful. Although the results of studies vary, most research reveals that two-thirds of heterosexual couples will remain together after an affair. While the research on this topic among gay couples is limited, most indicate that LGBTQ+ couples are even more likely to recover from affairs. Of course, some of these couples may stay together in misery while others will truly improve their relationships.
At The Gay Therapy Center we work with LGBTQ couples who want to repair their relationship after infidelity. Watch the video bel
LGBTQ+ Cheating: An Overused, Problematic Trope
Last year, I sat in Foundations of Literature, book in hand, fuming at what I had just read. “Brideshead Revisited” is not, by any means, a particularly engaging publication. I was only invested because it was one of the first books I had ever read with lgbtq+ representation that wasn’t garish. The story is subtle, with plain characters, Sebastian Flyte and Charles Ryder, who may or may not be in devote and are haunted by this lack of resolution for nearly 40 years. The author, Evelyn Waugh, confuses his readers with unclear language, but eventually, the main nature ends up in a loveless direct marriage and has an affair with his former lover’s sister.
It was unfair for an otherwise sweet representation to be demonized by this affair. It’s heavily implied in the book that Ryder falls for his best friend’s (implied lover’s) sister, Julia Flyte, only because of his nostalgia. When he first meets Julia Flyte, Ryder’s main thoughts are that she looks exactly like Sebastian Flyte. When Julia Flyte gently confronts Ryder about the essence of his affair with Sebastian Flyte, Ryder says that Sebastian Flyte was the “forerunner” of all hi
