You know, I've had that comment directed at me by my best friend. (We were sitting in a theatre waiting for Ave Q to start at the time, I dread to think what the people sitting near us thought! Although to be honest I don't really care.)
My answer was, the logistics of the physical side of things are easily researched (I love the internet - I haven't lived through WW2, been down in a submarine or spent any time as a frog but that doesn't stop me writing about it)and as for the rest, being in a male male relationship doesn't mean the feelings are any different. They would need to act in character whatever type of relationship they are in.
