They're straight and they like you? Or you're gay and you like them?

Sexuality isn't set in stone. Maybe you might be leaning towards the bisexual side rather than fully gay?

Relationships and Dating :arrow: Teen Sexuality. You'll find better answers here! And far as you having straight crushes, maybe your not fully gay. You're probably bi, since bi people like both genders.

If I'm interpreting what you mean correctly, you're saying you have had crushes on people who are straight? Is so, then it's very common. People want what they can't have and I think it's important to not let yourself get so attached and I know that's alot easier said then done. (speaking from experience) you shouldn't beat yourself up about it, it happens to all of us! :)

That's completely inaccurate. Just because the person you have a crush on is straight doesn't mean you aren't gay. If I have a crush on a guy, and he's straight, that doesn't make him the other gender. Since gay people are a minority, most of the people you have a crush on will be straight. It sucks, but there's not much you can do about that.

I think the interpretation is getting messed up.

You are crushing on girls or the boys you're crushing on are straight?

I too, am a bit confused by what you're asking. You've had crushes on people who are straight, or crushing on people of the opposite gender?

Not much to be done in either case, though for the former.. find a LGBT youth group? If you're around more gay guys, better chances of developing a crush on one :B

You two have different interpretations of "straight crush". The person you responded to thought that he was saying he had a crush of the heterosexual variety. A crush where he, the OP, was attracted a member of the opposite sex.

I'm not sure which is what OP meant though xD

Please don't double post. Thanks. -Jordan

I think Rith is right. After seeing what Casey said about me being inaccurate, I completely messed up, and thought you meant you said straight crushes, thinking you also had crushes on girls. Sorry for the mixup.
