This book nearly saved my life5
Forbidden Love with a married man:e-mail diaries written by Dennis Schleicher was the nourishment I needed going through the darkest time in my life. I am a married gay man that has been riddled with guilt because I feel that I created victims in my wife and children for selfish reasons. I got married even though I knew I was gay but I new what societies expectations were of me and I thought marriage would somehow heal those desires. They didn't and they never will for anyone. Dennis's book not only helped me understand that my intentions weren't to do harm but to follow societies narrow expectations they have for men and woman. I truly did what I thought was right. I now have hurt my wife and children and it nearly cost me my life until this book was given to me. I have since join Dennis annonymous group for married men and he is not only wise and insightful but very compassionate and has personally helped guide me back out of the darkness of dispair that I was in. This book WILL and SHOULD become a movie. Thank you Dennis for your inspiration. Most sincerely, Aaron


It's 2 PM......Where's Your Husband?
This volume deals with an Internet romance between two men. The author, a reluctant homosexual and a homosexual-man-married-to-a heterosexual- woman meet on an Internet site and the rest as they say is history. The Internet has given endless opportunities for homosexual-men-married-to-heterosexual-women to meet up with other men for sex and other, shall we say, more meaningful experiences. The chronicling of this affair by Mr. Schleicher is important in that it calls attention to a situation that is probably more common than the public at large realizes. The writing however is less than mediocre, mostly exchanged e-mails and carries throughout the pages a streak of homophobia that is directed against gays, fems, drag-qeens and the gay community in general. This is odd since it is primarily that group of people who have fought for (and minimally obtained) the civil rights and laws that will allow Mr. Schleicher to openly love and/or to live with his Internet Prince (should he decide to become honest and come out to his wife). Indeed, that might have been the crux of this volume, an exploration of the struggle and destructive spirit that the denial of one's sexuality brings to marriages and families. It is instead a vapid, monotonous dialogue between two narcissists. By the end of reading it I wished I had given the money to a gay civil rights organization instead of buying this book.
