New York-based journalist Kiri Blakeley was thinking about her wedding dress when her fiance said he had to tell her something.
“I really didn’t think it was going to be about anything big. I sat down and he said, ‘I think I’m confused about my sexuality’.”
It was the absolute last thing she expected to hear, so she started laughing because she assumed it was a joke.
“And then he burst into tears. At that moment, I knew my life was never going to be the same. All Aaron would tell me was that he was having fantasies about men. I thought, ‘Well, maybe it’s not that big a deal’. But over the course of our conversation it became apparent that it was something he wanted to explore and that we’d have to break up. I was devastated, she says to Herald.ie.
