Hi there. Thanks for your post. It sounds like you’re in a bit of a tricky situation.

I haven’t been in a similar situation, so I can’t necessarily relate, nor can I tell you exactly what to do.

That being said, I can try to give you some pointers.

It sounds like you are in a great relationship with your partner and it’s great that you’re open with your sexuality.

It’s normal to feel insecurities and you’re definitely not alone in your situation and how you feel. There are plenty of other people who have been through this.

Again, I can’t tell you what to do. But I don’t think you’ll be happy hiding your feelings and letting them build up. That could just end in an explosion and everyone involved feeling crappy.

It sounds like your partner would be open to talking with you about possibly exploring your sexuality more. Communication is the best option, in my opinion. Just getting it out there can be such a relief.

If you’d like some further support, Switchboard switchboard.lgbt/ and LGBT Foundation lgbt.foundation/ both have LGBTQ+ helplines. PinkTherapy www.pinktherapy.com/ has a directory of LGBTQ+-friendly therapists if you think that therapy may be a good option for you.

I hope this was helpful.

Please feel free to keep us updated on how you’re doing.
