To me, that isn’t a pass/fail kind of thing. Some marriages continue and some don’t. It comes down to whether or not the spouse can deal with a new reality. Some spouses would probably feel that things would have been much better had we stayed in the closet, but that takes a terrible toll on us. We should all be able to be who we are. To me, the analogy is a backed up drain pipe. Nothing good happens after that. It only gets worse until action is taken…
