I wish to stay married to my wife who has recently decided she is gay. She has a lover whom she is in love with. Without denying her, I wish to stay married. She is ready to leave and start a new life. Wants me to be friends. We've been great friends and in love for many years.
Any advice on saving this marriage?
Anyone been successful at convincing a spouse that poligamy can work?

Well,
married people, gay or straight, ought not to have romantic relationships with people outside of marriage.
Your wife decided she is gay since this OW is meeting important emotional needs and they spent time alone together and were able to become inimate sexually with each other.
Read up on all the concepts on this site and expose your wife's affair and don't love bust and maybe you can create a good marriage with her again and get rid of the OW in her life.
If you don't, do you really want a polymamist relationship where she is having romance with someone else other than you? Really?

Hi Doug, welcome to Marriage Builders. Sorry for the reasons that bring you here. Can you explain what you mean here: Without denying her, I wish to stay married. Without denying her what exactly?
