Labeling my sexual orientation

Question - (2 June 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 2 June 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

so, im confused. Basically, at first i thought i was bi, i am a female. I liked girls, and guys. Then i started to find guys less attractive, to the point where when a guy hit on me it didnt matter. I tried to not care much...i mean bi, gay, straight, theyre all labels, but there is so much pressure. I constantly hear (especially from christian people) being gay is wrong, ill go to hell...you know that whole thing.

sometimes i feel like im a lesbian. ever since i was little i always found myself attracted to girls. Im so scared of that, my parents, my friends, they all would disown me. I've only told a few friends i liked girls, the ones i trusted, and they were ok with it. But everyone else would freak. I get great grades, hang out with good people, have had boyfriends [and not enjoyed it], am a soccer jock...and im scared of being a lesbian.

well...ive basically whined so much...im sorry for putting you thru this. I guess i just needed to vent...sorry if it doesnt make sense...none of this makes sense in my head...other than the feeling i get when im with a girl.

GrimmReality agony auntOh dear,

Not to worry, thats what we are here for.

Please be aware that although I will not condemn Christianity as a whole, I can only say that many adherents have their own interpretations of what morality is. I am sure you are scared, as evidenced by your question.

The only person that will ever be true to you in your life is yourself. Trust your own feelings on this. Although you may feel awkward and confused, you are young, and discovering your sexuality is part of that process. You are discovering it now.

But don't let others dictate to you how you feel in this situation. If Hell exists, most likely we are all going there, so you will be in good company. And you ever notice that those who claim to be the most religious are always the most intolerant, thus totally making their arguments moot?

Don't tell me you live in Kansas? lol

At any rate, go with how you feel. If it feels right, you wont be able to deny it for long. Best of Luck

niki20 agony auntdear, screw people -- they're all wrong. God will accept you for you, nobody matters except for your family and friends anyway. People are ignorant and don't understand anything, maybe if they hold their head a little higher they'll drown in the rain. Be proud of who you are flaunt it, no one else matters.
