NICE STORY! SOMEHOW, SIMILAR TO MY REAL LIFE STORY! I was caught unguarded when I watched this movie, because…
Your high school crush was a beautiful experience and to enjoy hard and happy memories over an 8-year relationship was not possible for most homosexual couples, too. Although your relationship didn't last, the learning and maturity gained will be invaluable for you to make your next LTR or marriage last forever.
Nonetheless,I do think it may be 'risky' and unfair to the spouse to-be for once gay person to marry like in your and your ex-lover's cases. Especially when you still harbour the thought that "he is still single and hoping to reunite" with you...
I'm more fortunate, I guess, that both my partner and I have been together for over 16 years, with acceptance from both sides of families. Only a happy and peaceful relationship (but of course, some short-lived bickering along the way) will re-assure our family members that a same-sex relationship is possible. :-)
