I have had some indirect experience with this. My mother found out that my father was gay a little while after my brother was born. I will tell you, it CAN be dealt with. Sadly, my parents let it go and divorced and thought being gay was 'who he was'. Please don't let this be you. If this happens, you should come to terms with the fact that Satan has tempted the man in this way, of causing him to be attracted to men. Next, it is important to seek God for guidance and agree to work out the marriage. With a lot of prayer, reading the Bible, and Christian counselling from your church; the couple can work it out. It will take time, but I am an ex-bisexual and I can tell you that God can take away those desires. It is also important for the couple to get as intimate as possible and return to the feelings of why they fell in love and got married in the first place. Keep children in mind also, if there are any.

What should a wife do if she discovers that her husband is a homosexual? Nothing. Having homosexual tendencies is not a sin. However, giving into the homosexual tendencies and committing homosexual acts is a sin. What should a wife do if she discovers that her husband did a homosexual act? If the husband is repentant, the wife should be forgiving.

Committing adultery doesn't depend on whether or not the individual is the same gender. Adultery is adultery. Fornication is fornication. Lust is lust. Sin is sin. Regardless of genders. If a man commits a homosexual act, then it falls into a category of sexual immorality, regardless of whether he's married or not. If the man is married than it's adultery as well.
