|
I was wondering if anyone here has questioned their sexuality before they realized what they really were and decided to stick with it.
As for me,my sexuality(lesbianism) did not kick in until the sixth grade(age 12) when I developed a crush on one of my friends. I didn't know what "gay" was then,though,so I was VERY lost.
I did not find out what my feelings meant until I was 13. I just said that I was bi when I was 14,though,because I didn't want to deal with the harrassment and discrimination.
I decided that I was going to stick with the gender I was attracted to,at age 15-almost-16 and I came out a few weeks earlier.

| I didn't really respond to men sexually so for a while I wondered if I was a lesbian. So I tried sleeping with a woman and found I responded even less to women. At this point I go through phases of being voraciously interested in sex and then not interested in the least. |

I am questioning it now... maybe asexual.
I am homosexual, but I have come to realize that sex is not all that great and, in reality, I am not too interested. Hard to get in the mood and way to easy to lose it.
Besides, I need to get more than just an orgasm from the effort.

| I'm not attracted to guys, but I wonder sometimes if I am gay. I might a lot easier time if I was. |

I think everyone has to question it at some point to honestly know
I asked the question, the answer came back resoundingly straight
I didn't ask because I thought a guy was attractive or anything, but I did ask because I thought I had to ask the question to honestly know, and explore my inner workings to really arrive at a level of certainty that I am comfortable with
I question just about everything about myself on a fairly regular basis that I can know who I am
I also question those who I would consider an enemy, anyone who I would have conflict with I dissect and try to understand what part of me makes me dislike a person |

Very briefly. I was straight one minute, the next I liked guys. I managed to cope pretty easily.  |

I'm definitely straight. Women do nothing for me from a sexual interest. I think for me I like how men are different than I am. Being a lesbian for me (or bisexual) would be too much like having sex with myself.
I did think about it from an intellectual perspective when I met my best friend and she was bisexual. I was curious as to what she found attractive in another woman. It just didn't work for me. I know all sorts of people with different sexuality. I think we're all just attracted by different things and that's fine. |

| Yeah I do, mainly out of curiousity and an experience years ago with another female. But I do prefer men and likely wouldn't act out things. |

I knew I was bi from an early age, though I didn't know everything that meant. I had romantic attachments to other girls, and I liked having boys as friends.
In my teens, I thought I might be lesbian, but I was having crushes on guys as well. I had a couple of guys interested in me in highschool, though I didn't realize it until way later when a friend told me she kept wondering which one I'd choose. Choose? I wasn't even aware they were interested. I like being their friend, and didn't want anything different.
I do have attractions to guys, but most of the time it's with women. It seems the few guys who were interested in me romantically wanted to have control and hem me in, have me be the domestic type, and have a stereotypical male/female relationship.
I have yet to have a long-term relationship. These issues with male/female roles come up pretty quick, and I've dumped the guy. With women, it's more intimate, but we were usually at different places in our lives, and neither of us ready to settle down any where.
And that's my story.
