Boyfriends frequent ‘breaks’
define couples relationship
DEAR ABBY: My boy
friend, “Ashton,” is bisex
ual. After we have fights,
he takes “breaks” and
uses them to be with
other men. He has several
friends who are bisexual
or transgender. He is
presently in the closet
about his status because
he comes from a
Christian family and lives
in a highly conservative
area.
He was still maintain
ing contact last year with
his on-again, off-again
boyfriend, “Will,” even
though he swore nothing
was going on between
them. He always rushed
back to Will or kept him
on the side during his
other relationships as
well. I almost broke up
with him four months ago
over his hanging out with
Will.
Now he wants his
friend “Cody,” who is a
transgender male, to stay
with him for several days
for an upcoming concert
there. I’m in the process
of moving to his area, but
I don’t trust him not to
have sexual relations out
side of ours. My straight
male friends have warned
me not to trust him.
Should I break up with
him because I don’t feel
he respects his female
partners as much as he
does his male ones? It
also seems like he has a
double standard with
sharing phone details. I
share mine openly, but he
isn’t as open with his,
which leads me to think
he’s still got someone
else on the side. Yet he
wants me to see only him.
Help! — FRUSTRATED
GIRL IN CALIFORNIA
DEAR FRUSTRATED:
Because someone identi
fies as bisexual does not
mean the person is inca
pable of being monoga
mous. Ashton, however,
seems to use these
“breaks” to consort solely
with other males. He may
be using you to hide his
true orientation from his
Christian family. None of
DEAR ABBY
Jeanne Phillips
this bodes well for your
relationship. Listen to
your friends. They may
have more insight into
Ashton’s character than
you do.
RS. People who hide
their phones often have
more going on than they
are comfortable reveal
ing. Consider this another
red flag, and reconsider
both the move and your
romance with him.
DEAR ABBY: I have a
lifelong friend whose old
est child has always been
led to believe that his
stepmother is his mother.
The stepmom has had
two children of her own
now, and it is clear that
she treats her own kids
far better. I recall exam
ple after example. When
does the charade end?
I have been close
friends with the kid’s dad
since childhood, but that
poor kid will feel
betrayed when he finds
out who his mother really
is and that I was one of
the adults who knew and
kept it from him. He will
be 18 soon. What can I
do? — SILENCED IN
THE WEST
DEAR SILENCED:
Talk to the young man’s
father. Point out that
because of genetic test
ing, it’s only a matter of
time until his son learns
the truth about who his
birth mother is, and it
would be better if the
news comes from his
father.
