Actually, I think that when two men fall in love, the bonds are far stronger than straights experience. Men understand men better than women understand men, and vice versa...to love someone even though you DO understand them takes a lot of very powerful love, and gay men find this love. It is no accident that the fiercest armies have been those of all gay men, men protecting their lovers in battle.

You are asking a question based upon relativistic terms of relationships between a man and a woman and a man and a man.
Each set of relationships has as you put it "dynamics" of "romantic couplings"

You then pose the question that those relationships are as strong as one another.

When analyzed strictly on what you have presented the answer must be resounding yes.

As a result I must agree with you.

Now to the practical side of the question without being uppity either in the question or the answer.

Relationships are what you make of them. Straight or Gay. They will be as strong or as weak as the two persons make the relationship by the amount of effort they put into making the relationship work.

Many times no manner how much work is put into a relationship it fails. This occurs in Straight and Gay relationships.

Those relationships that succeed and continue for 20, 30, 40 or more years are primarily based upon love and trust. 90% are truly monogamous in which the partners have remained faithful to one another not going outside the relationship for sexual activites. The other 10% have grown to accept the occational trist and again been open about their activities. Again trust in the basic relationship.

I'm not sure. I was too stunned by the hot photo...what was the question?

Oh yeah...From my experience with gay couples, lesbian couples and "straight" couples, I would say that the dynamic of the relationships can be strong across the board. They can also be weak. People are individuals, regardless of orientation. The strength of the relationship depends on the individuals involved. Period.

I think you are alittle confused on this, sorry. Is the love in my homosexual relationship as 'strong' as a straight one, yes. But the 'dynamics' of my relationship are very different then from a heterosexual relationship. Two very different answers here.

My partner and I have been together just about 3 yrs, and there is positively nothing I wouldn't do for the love we share, I'm saying I'd lay my life on the line or give it up for him. And I'm not talking creepy stalker talk here. If he had a failing organ and I could give mine to save him I'd willingly do it. Most 'straights' would probably call this love, and I don't know a stronger bond.

On dynamics, We live together, we manage finances together and have common goals. However, we do not live our life's by some moral code, nor do we attend church. We know the difference in doing things that are just/and right as opposed to the wrong. AKA, We don't kill people or steal. The family dynamics are different, as I would like to adopt children sometime, and he isn't as excited about the idea. When I'm at his parents home for holidays, I'm the 'friend' around the extended family, as opposed to him being my 'partner' around mine. We cannot merry, and even with civil unions we cannot file jointly with the IRS, which causes many issues and costs. Civil partners pay allot of money to attorneys and tax professionals to properly file. For this reason, when civil unions become legal in Washington State, we may not have our partnership legalized by the state, it's easier and less costly to write a good will and power of attorney.

To make a long post short, I love him the same any man would love a women or a wife, and he of me. But when it gets into day to day living, allot of things are different within the dynamic of our relationship, that 'straight' couples aren't forced to deal with.

Just my 2 cents.

I disagree. The dynamics of same sex relationships will always be different. Society will always view it as different and therefore the dynamics will always be different between the couple. Not to say you wont love just as strong but you wont always be able to display your love in the same way and the same places as straight couples do so somethings will never be know between the two of you. Marriage may never happen, depending on how far your willing to go to make it happen (another state perhaps), your families might not always accept it so you might not know how your partner might be with you in a social environment, etc., so the dynamics wont always be the same but as a couple, we'll always strive to make it so.

Yes! Without question!

You have the same sence of love and security that any straight couple has. Intensified with the ability to fully understand your partners needs and disires on a level even more so then a straight couples. (My view anyway).

Of course it depends on the relationship and, horrible as it is to admit, you do get disfunctional gay relationships.

But ultimately love is love is fantastic! Any couple can make a go of it and be ever bit as happy and romantic as anyone could want to be!

p.s. We're going onto our 8th year together and still every bit as silly and in love as when we started! YAY!!!

Of course they do. I've seen straight and gay couples and they're both just as strong as the other.

I belive it should be. Gay relationships are still realtionships. Gay couples are sometimes even MORE romantic then straight couples because they have an understanding of that gender and are able to relate.
