Telling her about my sexuality and essentially giving her the tools to destroy me and that is something am absolutely NOT going to do anytime soon for as long as I remain in this country. I have met her three times before our wedding and we are already good friends. The girl I will be marrying is kind, pretty and respectful. Can't really talk to friendsĮDIT: I would just like to say thanks to all Redditors and the atheist community for offering your support, kindness and understanding. I have always hated religion ever since I came out to myself. It will be an unfulfilling marriage but at least it will ensure my safety and enable me to have children I have always wanted. This is my only way I can keep my family whom I love very much and stafe safe from harms way. My parents have always suspected me to be gay and have prayed for me thoroughly and pressured me into this marriage. Many marriages here are simply for securing resources. People don't really get married for love here like they do in the west. The marriage was arranged by my parents who are middle class and managed to secure me a girl from a very poor family.
I have no choice but to marry a woman to keep up appearances. I live in a third world country (Uganda) and homosexuality will absolutely get you killed here at the very least brutally beaten up and arrested.
