How do I supress my feelings towards the same sex?

Tagged as: Gay relationships, Teenage<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (4 December 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 6 December 2009)
A male United Kingdom age 30-35, *dCs writes:

Over the past few months i've forgotten slightly about my sexual orientation. I've been making plenty of friends, both male and female. However, despite my good friendship with one guy, it just hit me today that I might have some attachment to him. I have decided, as a result, that I do not want to ruin any more friendships in this sort of way. My attraction to men has gradually decreased recently, but i'm afraid that it'll just go back to where it was half a year ago. I need advice on how to supress my feelings and I no longer want to be gay. I suppose you could say that my brain has finally wised up, but my heart is somewhat lagging. How do I go about stopping being gay - do I just need to try to get a girlfriend? If so, where do I begin in trying to change my outlook on this difficult issue?

Thanks in advance.

yum yum agony auntYou need to accept yourself for who you are. Surpresing your feelings is just being in denial about your sexuality.

You need to come to terms with it, even though there are many obstacles of leading a gay life style. You need to be brave. Take care !

A female reader, anonymous, writes (5 December 2009):

I'm sorry, but I don't think you can change being gay. I know at least three other men that have gone that route, one even got married, but in the end gave up. They lost out on a lot of years of being happy by trying to force themselves into being straight. Do you have any gay friends that you can talk to this about?
