Gay relationships are just the same as straight relationships, just with the same gender :) Homosexual relationships can be just as romantic and stable like heterosexual couples, just like heterosexual couples can be unstable too

Absolutely! Relationships are built on trust and regardless of what kind of relationship you are in there is the ability to have a stable relationship.

Yes they definetely can ! A sexual preference doesn't define the nature or stability of a relationship !

Of course! Gay romantic relationships are the same as any romantic relationships. They can be stable, they can be chaotic, they can be full of love, just as they can be full of hate. It depends on the people and the situations, of course, but gay relationships can be very fulfilling and loving.

Speaking from my own experience- 100% we can. I am in a wonderful relationship with my partner and just like heterosexual relationships it still runs on trusting one another, communication and lots of love. There is no reason we should be stereotyped otherwise. A suggestion is if you are ever questioning someone or a practice just because it is inherently different I'd simply try it out or ask someone. If you are experiencing love for fear of being labelled don't let that stop you, there is an amazing community of lgbtq+ identified people out there who are waiting to show you lots of love. :)

Why not? They are normal people with different preferences. The possibility of having or not having a stable relationship in gay people is the same as that in the traight people.

Well of course. Just because you're gay doesn't mean you can't have a romantic relationship. It has nothing to do with how your relationship will turn out, that's all up to you and your partner.

Yes! Of course they can :D They have stable romantic relationships all the time in fact millions of them are in stable romantic relationships at this very second. A relationship between two gay people is similar to a relationship between two straight people with the only difference being that in a homosexual relationship, both people are the same gender, and in a heterosexual relationship, both people are the opposite gender. Still, people who are in a relationship, gay or straight, do similar things. They love each other, get married, start a family, procreate, support one another, file joint tax returns, raise children, go on dates, do romantic things...etc. Now if you want the proof behind this: Research has shown that gay people can have equally as stable relationships as straight people, or they can have more stable relationships than straight people. Here are two articles written about it: https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/disturbed/201311/gay-relationships-can-be-more-stable-straight-ones https://web.stanford.edu/~mrosenfe/Rosenfeld_Couple_Longevity_Forthcoming_JMF.pdf

Of course! I'm a lesbian, I was in a very stable, healthy relationship for a good ten months (which seems not long, but it's long for people my age, and it would've lasted longer, but something happened). But, of course, gay people can be in stable relationships.

Yes, definitely. Just as straight people can have stable romantic relationships, so can people in same-sex relationships
