dear family,
i am very sad to announce that my relationship with alberto has ended.
we love each other very dearly, and i will never stop believing that alberto
was the man i wanted to marry and raise a family with.
alberto has been unemployed for almost two years now, and i thought it was
best if he tried his luck on his own. sometimes protecting a person curtails
his potential for growth and maturity. i hope god will have mercy on me if
this decision was a mistake. i know i'd never forgive myself.
i was happy and hopeful when i announced our commitment ceremony for my
upcoming birthday on the 27th. i never for a moment doubted that the power
of love can work miracles and that everybody deserves to be who they really
are, regardless of past mistakes and lack of self-awareness. i am much
humbler now. i accept that although my mind can understand that a man may be
married for 20 years and have four children and still claim a new life as a
gay person at 55, my heart cannot cope with the concept.
i will try to be more careful from now on. i will try to be more thoughtful.
i hope alberto will be happy and that he and i know and find what we are
looking for.
love,
wallyK
