I have gay family members who I care about but disaggree with extremely. They are very immature. Fights stem from what the other one is wearing to what they do. It is like watching two catty high school girls that are in extreme competition of one another. Also the turn over rates are so high in these cases. I have been a happily married heterosexual for 12 yrs-- in that time I have watched the homosexual part of the family go through tons of different relationships-Close to 7 to 8 relationships.

I know what you mean about the revolving door relationships. I've seen it time after time. One of my best friends lost a long term relationship because he couldn't keep it in his pants. When his partner found out, he left. My friend hasn't had a long term relationship since then and is very lonely (nothing worse than an old gay guy).

However, one of the family members I'm thinking of was w/her partner for 50+ years, until she died. They never brought up their lifestyle and her partner is treated like a member of the family.

As I stated, I think the older people knew how to mind their own business. These younger gays are so intent on being outrageous that they miss the few opportunities for real relationships that come their way.
