I’m interested in the POVs (PsOV?) of bi women who married men, because that was my first marriage—except I was the best friend and partner and (briefly) husband of a bi woman who decided that, well, actually, no she was really a lesbian. (We’re still friends—my wife and I went to her wedding a few years ago, and we plan to spend time with her and her wife during a trip next year.) I still wonder what I could have done differently to be “good enough.”

My first wife had more in common with women like Natalie Ohio (https://medium.com/@nataliesohio) who had this really wonderful guy friend… who just didn’t make the cut in the end.

Samantha, sounds like your husband is a really great guy… and for you, that was all it took. Ah, well, I guess 25 years (so far!) with my 2nd (and final!) wife is a pretty freakin’ awesome consolation prize. 😉
