Leaving one's gay husband

Q: I am married to a gay man for 16 yrs. What should I do? I feel betrayed and confused. He is a good Chinese Muslim in my eyes but he just told me he that he has an urge for man but never intended to fufil it. I do not know what to do and why I'm tested like this.

A: You may speak to him and tell him that if he has lost interest in women then he should separate you.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
