Name: OhioanCan someone please answer me why DL men only want sex with you in the early morning hours when you are half awake. Also, what is the reason that DL men do not have any male friends or if they do, they are older men. Why are they clues?!!!
Name: Joy MarieHello Sinceregirl,
There is so much we want to say to you. Would you be okay with sending us an email on the Contact Form. I really want to talk with you personally. I want people to read your story, therefore I do not want to add anything over it right away.
Peace and Love,
Joy Marie
Name: sinceregirlI am married to a man who claims to be a christian and is living with his mother and also has another woman in his life now. Its been 7 months now since we've been separated and I feel so happy in a way, but then again I still love him. Unfortunately, I always felt there was a hidden truth behind him which he never wanted to reveal..he was abused as a child by his father and his allowed it..he says his dad never raped him but as he grew up getting abused his dad used to call him a faget, and that he was going to be a faget when he grew up..we never really got along as we married and moved in together..he would disapear at times and claim he was his mothers, and sometimes wasn't there..he was verbally abusive towards me and our intimacy..ha'! Forget that..most of the times, won't even get up..he always wanted to be complemented but never complimented me..it made no sense..he would speak a lot about recognizing gays when he saw them and acted like he knew so much about that..he would speak to his friends away from me..never had me associate with them..I met them and knew some of them or most but he never brought me in anywhere around them..I think he was with other women, but then again maybe men too..has a few best friends and one is gay and the other I wasn't sure but he never liked me, and his excuse was that he never likes none of his girlfriends...why is that? There is so many questions I have in regards to this and the unsolved comments and assumptions I had..it sucks not to really know..he would not even sleep with me at times he would sleep with his 5yr old son which we won custody off..not come down to bed with me until I was sleeping..he had such a crazy obession with his son that was sickening..never understood such closeness..he never allowed me or my two children to get close to his son upto an extent..he would take us away from his..meaning, he would take his son get him ready and leave to do his own thing with him..he is such a mommas boy too, had an attachment there that was crazy..almost like if she knew something or his secret...I don't know, but its crazy and I still live with this..it never worked out, I don't a reason to really justify it other than that he has to be bysexual or something..come on...never went down on me but like three times if and when we had intimacy he would rarely get it up and always had a problem with coming too fast...this breaks me inside..to know I married someone I didn't know truly and brought him home with my children to hear us fight all the time and see how he treated me like shit and never provided anything..I was almost doing it all because of his child support beoing too high..two kids from dift moms and then when he got custody of his son cause I helped him..he just took off to his mothers with his son..I had to let some of it out..I just had to cause this ? Mark is bugging me out...
Name: MaryI want to give a "Shout-Out" and a "Thank You" to the authors of this wonderful book. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down.
The writers did an extraordinary job in the writing of this marvelous novel. You can read the years of research and experience that has been put into it; sharing their experiences
and real-life stories. I stumbled on the Authors
Joy Marie, one day when I was at one of my lowest points, lonely, frustrated, with tears in my eyes and did not know what to do or where to turn. I felt I was out here all by myself until I starting reading Joy Marie's truths about the DL. These authors opened up my eyes to help explain to me what I already knew, and what I felt in my heart but didn't want to face....that I am married, 3 children, to a man on the DL for the past 20 years. I have a long story, but in short, "Thank you Joy Marie" for such a terrific awareness novel.
Name: BrandieI am so happy to have discovered this book. It really gives you an inside look on a women's point of view. This book is educating for women who have and haven't experienced this scenario. I truly can appreciate this good read.
Name: AliciaWow, this book was so very enlightening! I can truly say that this open my eyes to the many DL men that try to creep into our lives. Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down! Please continue to keep the many naive women such as myself informed through your very real and insightful book... I thank God for women such as you, who are not afraid to speak out!
Name: PauletteWOW!! The Straight Up Truth About The Down Low, was phenomenal. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. It's amazing how you think you now a person and then you find out something like this. Joy Marie, you two women are a Godsend. I want to personally thank you, from the bottom of my heart for opening our eyes, and helping us to see that this type of thing is happening all around us. I have had the pleasure of meeting one of the authors (MARIE). This young women has something to say, and I'm all ears. This book she wrote, not because she wanted to get back at the person who betrayed her, but because she cares about women, all women. So all I would like to say is ladies, talk to your sisters, aunties, daughters, etc. Tell them all to pick up this book, read it. It will help all of us out in the future. I look forward to reading other books, and would love for you to come to Atlanta, and speak to the women here. God bless you!

Name: confusedI have been dating this guy for a while now and he has been talking about marriage. The story is long and complicated, but I'm going to try to make it short. First of all, he is very effeminate.(don't want to judge him because of that), but growing up everybody called him gay because of how he acted. He also has a best friend(who is married) that acts the same way. Lately, I can tell that something is wrong. He has started telling me stories about certain people we went to school with,that he heard was on the down low, about how they have wives and they are on the down low. I asked him where did you hear that and he just brushed it off. (because I'm wondering what circle are you in to hear these things) One day he made the statement" If I found out that (my best friend) was gay,I wouldn't stop being his friend because we have been friends for so long." It just seems lately he's always talking about who's gay and I don't know where this is coming from. I can't check his phone, because he will not let it out his site. He disappears @ night, I ride by his house and he's not home. Then when he calls back he says he is in the house, and I can tell he's in the car. I don't know what to think. I have prayed about it and it's like God has given me an answer or it's my intuition or something because my stomach is hurting so bad when I think about it. It's a feeling I can't describe. It won't go away, I have trouble sleeping @ night thinking about this. Is this how intuition works or what??
Name: ElisaAt the age of seventeen, i went to a Bible school campus day and met a young preacher (18). After learning we both lived in the same town, we began talking and I find myself intrigued by him. We quickly began dating and I was completely smitten by his charm, good looks, and his love for the Lord. He convinced me to have sex with him and being in love, I didn't see how it conflicted with our religion. We were off and on for a total of 3 years resulting in him cheating on me with which I later found out was with both men and women.We began sharing how we wanted to get married after we both finished school and started talking about meeting with his pastor. I had scares of being pregnant and when he couldn't make my doctors appointment with me, I knew something was up. i broke the relationship again so we could focus on where we wanted to go in our personal lives as well as with each other. Then in March of this year, he contacted me and I was so happy to hear from him because I missed him so much. I asked him in a joking manner "so who's your new boo"? He said "his name's Laleek". I was completely devastated. He revealed to me that he had cheated on me with men but wouldn't say he was gay but he did engage in sexual activity. This has been such a devastating, heart breaking, and painful event in my life and I'm open to help anyone who has gone through this same horrific experience.
