Hi Thalia,

I’m so sorry for all that you are going through.  It can’t be easy continuing to share a living space with the person you love but can’t have a romantic relationship with.  Yes, it is very much like Freddie Mercury and Mary Austin, but in that situation, Mary was able to move out and be next door.

I haven’t been through anything like this, but would encourage you to read what you can about these types of relationships.  Ultimately, it seems you will need to decide if this relationship can work for you.

Best,

Airene
