"Gosse was happily married for over 50 years and had three children but did acknowledge to John Addington Symonds around the time Symonds was working on A Problem in Modern Ethics that he was attracted to men thus confirming the suspicions Symonds had voiced earlier. 'Either way I entirely deeply sympathize with you. Years ago I wanted to write to you about all this' Gosse wrote to Symonds 'and withdrew through cowardice. I have had a very fortunate life but there has been this obstinate twist in it! I have reached a quieter time--some beginnings of that Sophoclean period when the wild beast dies. He is not dead but tamer; I understand him & the trick of his claws.' Gosse had love affairs possibly not consummated with a school friend John Blaikie and the handsome young sculptor Wiiliam Hamo Thornycroft.After Symonds' death Gosse burnt all of Symonds' letters and diaries and papers that had been bequeathed to him."
