It doesn't work that way. Communication is key, unspoken words and understanding is in the eye of the beholder and a source of misunderstanding and broken families.

We always been honest about the emotional relationship both my wife and me, how it is normal to love and sometimes loath eachother, emotional intelligence and all...but he has a different sense of what love and relationship means to him, he opened up on his feelings when he felt the timing was right because he finally understood what he felt. Coming out isn't mandatory coming out of a closet, it can be when everything makes sense. We never repressed him, he always got to choose his own path. That 's what it is.
