I Am a Closeted Gay
I am a 20-year-old gay guy in the closet.
I have denied it over and over, but now I have internally accepted who I am.
I do not know what my future would be like in terms of relationships.
I do not want this to affect my other aspects of life - jobs, friendships, family-relationships, etc..
At first, I thought of living my life as a closeted person. I might get married to a woman (since it is not like I am appalled by women) and live a normal marital life. In this way, I can avoid all the stages of conflicts that I have to face with my family, friends and other groups of people.
But then, I was not sure whether I could handle that all by myself.
So I wanted to ask you who have gone through it.
How did you cope with it? And if you were to live your life again, would you choose to live in the same way as you did?
Thank you for your insight and tips in advance.
