I have been disrespected, manipulated

Dear Obaa Yaa,

WHAT I’m going through currently isn’t what I anticipated when I agreed to marry my husband. I feel disrespected in my marriage and somehow manipulated.

From the beginning, he made things look easy. He made me feel like I was in a relationship with a man every woman could dream of. He was caring and simply wonderful, but along the line, I discovered that he was a gay.

When I confronted him, he told me it was something he used to do at the Senior High School but has turned a new leaf.

He made me believe that he had stopped, so I agreed to let go and let peace rein.

To my surprise, my husband brought these gays to our home, and when I confronted him, he told me he was finding it difficult to stop because he was addicted to it.

Obaa Yaa, I want to help my husband to stop this heinous act. How do I go about it?

Shika, Somanya.

Dear Shika,

I AM really sorry you are going through this. Finding out that your husband is a gay can be painful and overwhelming, especially in marriage.

Sexual orientation is not a habit or phase someone can switch off easily.

Have an honest and calm conversation with him; admonish him about the effect of sleeping with men.

Consider professional counselling and pray for him because some cases are spiritual.
