You might not do this, but I sure do.

So, here's what I've noticed about myself. Whenever I'm honestly attracted to, or crushing on a boy, I can't help but believe that he's bi or gay. I'm truly and completely in denial though. There's only about two people in this world that I tell who I like, and when I talk to them, I say stuff like "Oh yeah, he's totally bi. He just looks like it."
It's almost like the truth of him being straight is too much for me to handle? I guess I feel like my attraction towards the individual is so strong that I want to just live in my own fantasy world. I do this ALL the time. Though I know, in the back of my mind, that he's straight, I will attempt to convince myself that he's gay or bi, just to save myself from the hurt.
Do you do this? I'm sick of it. I want to find my perfect boy, and have the enjoyment of walking down the school hallway, hand in hand.

Yea I feel the same way. I think that most people are gay and this little thing in the back of my mind says no hes not. And i just look at people thinking, how can they like girls. But i suppose thats what Straight guys think of us.

God, I feel that way with every single guy I have a crush on. It's so annoying, because I'm 99% sure that he's straight, but my mind will turn every little thing he does into a big sign indicating that he's bi/gay.

And it's so realistic, almost like I'm having constant hallucinations. It pisses me off.

YES! YES! I'm the exact same way. For a while, I thought I was the only person who did this. I just got tired of hearing "Cam, get over yourself. He's straight."

[SpanglyJoe]

Oh my goodness yes.
One crush, a boy who is largely asexual. Never expressed interest in anyone, never talks about his sexuality, avoids questions when i ask him whether he likes boys or girls. False hope all up in here.
Then i told him i loved him and he told me he's straight.
WHOOPSEE DAISY.

Another crush, somewhat flamboyant boy who flirts with me a little, talks to me about sexual related stuff all the time, once sat very close to me with his pants off (don't ask me why, he just took them off) and grabbed at my crotch while i had a bag of chips between my legs (at first he was just stealing chips but then he started putting his hand in the bag and NOT TAKING ANY). And then he spends the next week telling me all about this girl he likes and how straight he is and how he thinks dicks are weird and other things.
GOD DAMMIT.

haha I used to do that. I think that's an adolescent thing. That's something you're just going to have to get over.

It doesn't destroy or get me down that a guy I like is straight. In fact, the guys I like are usually definitely straight. I just make them gay in my fantasies :P

[Scooby Dooby Drew]

I actually do this all the time xD

v.v
'course they never are gay xD

[Lord C]

I suppose this is quite a similar thing to when guys convince themsevles that girls/guys like them when they might not. I wouldn't say it's a cushioning thing to protect yourself but I do agree with the feelings being so strong that you manage to convinve yourself.

[Emo_Boii]

I do that, it annoys me allot :/ xx

I do that too :O It's sooo annoying xx

[peaceloverugby]

Actually, I do the EXACT opposite. Anytime there's a guy I like, or who is kinda flirting with me, I'm like, "nahhh he's straight, can't be gay." I honestly have no idea why I do that. It took me about five months to find out that one of the other gay guys in my class is gay, when looking about on it, he's obviously gay. I mean, do you know any straight guys tagged in 1,323 pictures on Facebook? I don't either. But I was convinced for the longest time that he was straight.

[TheAppleGeek]

i feel the same way. i look at a hot guy in the hallway, and i say hes bi...but i know hes not.

its ok, were teens, we have a long way to go

[Curtis E]
