Another Question...

[reithedragonboy]

Who do you go to to talk about your sexuality when you're too embarrassed to talk to your mom about it, (even though we're the best of friends), your dad does not believe in gay marriage , (which kind of sends a signal on where he stands on the whole position), and your brother is usually out of the house whenever you are home (that and you're scared to even come up to him about something like that)? Who do you go to if you can't talk to your family about your sexuality?
I feel I really need to talk to someone about this, but as I stated earlier, I don't know who. I'm confused about all this; but I think I'm leaning towards gay. Actually, I think I'm as close to being gay while being unsure of it at the same time. I just need someone to talk to about it so I can figure out if I really am gay and just not on one of those normal teenage hormonal highs everyone gets in their teen years. (although I have done a good job controlling it all these years...)
Anyway, if you guys could just kind of give me a nudge in the right direction, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Sexuality isn't necessarily something you NEED to talk to someone about.

It's something you just discover on your own. You cannot freak out about it too much until you become a young adult (like 17-19) when your sexuality is set in stone (as it may be hard to tell while you're a teenager since hormones are everywhere). I will tell you; however, sexuality is NOT a choice. It's been shown to be unchangeable and actually is determined before birth. They're actually starting to show it may be related to genes (meaning you may have gay relatives you don't know about).

I don't advise seeking emergency counsel and medical advice from forums as doctors and psychologists/psychiatrists are the best choice for any type of help. However, I feel that by expressing yourself here...this may be your way of talking to someone. Find someone you trust here and see how it goes. This forum is great for people in need of discovering their true sexuality.

Good Luck!

Do you have a school councellor? Otherwise like Ryan said above maybe find someone you trust on here. Your welcome to talk to me if I might be able to help.

^^yeah... wat nick says. a lot of people here are very supportive even if they don seem like it... but all i was saying is that its comforting to know that there are others that are like you and that you can talk to them about it.

I usually talk about it on forums, becoz they're anonymous ^^
