My Nonprofit Reviews

When my husband of 4 years came out of the closet, I never felt more alone. I never imagined that there would be others in my situation out there. When I heard a news anchor ask the question "What about the wife" in reference to Mrs McGreevy it caught my attention. I learned about the Straight Spouse Network and immediately sought their help. Through SSN, I have learned to accept that the situation was not my fault, to accept my x for who he is and to move on. I now am an advocate for gay and lesbian rights in my circle of friends and co-workers. I have also been a sounding board to help some parents in my circle accept their children for who they are and love them without reservation. I also help them to understand that it is not a "phase" or a "bad decision". That it is real and it is who they are.
