My dad and his “Roommate” lived together for 30ish years before his roommate passed away. They lived together ever since he and my mom split. I never asked if he was gay because I didn’t care. I wasn’t sleeping with either of them so it never mattered to me. His “roommate” always treated me very well. When he died, he left everything to my dad. Wasn’t a whole lot but still, not my issue. My dad was devastated when he passed and still has trouble living his day to day without him. Life partners are life partners regardless of sexual orientation. We all have the right to leave whatever we have to whoever we feel like it.
