I am a teen who is confused about his sexuality. I remember when I was really young, I found other boys to be somewhat attractive, but later on, I started finding a lot of girls attractive, I have had a few girlfriends. But this past year, I have found some men really attractive. It is very odd: I fantasize about men a lot, more then women, but when I am with women, especially ones I like, I am attracted to them very much. Another odd thing was that on a school field trip, I had to room with two other guys, one I found pretty attractive. He had gotten out of the shower, and sat on the bed next to mine with just a towel covering his private. He is pretty muscular and nice looking, but I was not turned on by him sitting there. It almost seems like what I find attractive in fantasy vs. Reality is different. Keep in mind that I really don't have very many friends, and have never had a sexual experience. Some days I feel very attracted to men, while there are other days that women are more attractive. I am very confused about everything, and it is really stressing me out. Am I bisexual? I really dislike the idea of participating in gay culture, even though I find my self attracted to guys too. People where I live are very cowboyish and not open to anything. Even if in the future I move to a large city, will I be accepted? What do straight people think of people like me? What should I do? Please give me clarity. Thank You.
Take a deep breath, lean back, and do not worry about being anything in particular. You are a teen, and the hormones are raging. Everything seems to be sexually charged, at least in your fantasy. I cannot think of any healthy male who did not experience this feeling to some extent. Stay safe, be respectful and enjoy your life. The acceptance of the others is irrelevant when it comes to your sexual life. This is your private and intimate life, and none of other people's business. KD
I agree. I would add something about this : "really dislike the idea of participating in gay culture, even though I find my self attracted to guys too." Don't worry for anything, and in the case you will be bisexual, what is the matter? You are the only which choose how Live your own life : do what your heart want ,they are lots of style of Live and you dont have to do what don't like.
