I don't want to be gay....what should I do?

A male United States age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I'm so confused right now. I'm 15, and I know that deep inside, I'm straight, or at least bisexual - I want a relationship with a girl, and I've had sexual experiences with girls in the past. However, several years ago I got caught messing with a girl (who seriously turned me on) and got in a lot of trouble. I have never had many guy friends (although I really want them), it's just been girls. At this point, I'm almost only turned on by guys (I've watched gay porn for several years now and that's all that gets me hard). Deep down though I still feel attracted to girls, but like I've suppressed it somehow, by watching gay porn, getting in trouble for being with a girl, and not being around many guys, but wanting to be. I don't want to be gay... what should I do?

I just want to start with I'm not trying to make this about me, but this what I went through. I think that you are going throught the same thing. I know it's hard to be gay or accept that you are. I tryed denying it to myself for years. Deep down I feel atracted to girls too, but on a social level. I want to be attracted to girl because I want to have kids, but the fact is that I'm not. I fell in love with one of my best friends who is a guy. I think you feeling like your attration toward women is supressed is might be you wishing that you were attracted to girl. I don't like the fact that I'm gay either, but that is just the way things go. If you are gay then the only thing you can do is accept it. You can't choose whether you are gay or straight. I tryed to become straight, but nothing worked.

But take your time. You'll figure out whether you are gay or staight. My suggestion is to not try to force yourself to be gay or straight. When you are having sexual thoughts just let them flow freely and don't try to direct them. That may eliminate some of your confusion. Either way I'm sure that some day you will find someone you love very much who loves you too.

I wish you nothig but the best. Good luck figuring this out.

Tasmanian devil agony auntIt sounds to me all signs point to bi, you can't choose sexuality, your still a teen this could be you just experimenting or maybe the lack of male friends/surplus of female is making you feel more feminine in the end of the day there must be reasons for your male attractions and you probli are bi

Give it time and don't rush. Get to know yourself first and what makes you happy. Ofcourse, experimenting may help or make matters worse.

What ever makes you happy within will makes it way out eventually.

People over 25 are still confused! This is normal

Thats easy.

Dont worry about it, you are still very young and have quite a way to go yet. Just be a teenager and have fun.

If you want more guy friends start following sport. In your country gridiron or whatever you call it would be best. Trust me I can start up a sport conversation with pretty much any guy.

As for being gay...if you are then you are so just accept it and definately dont live a lie
