 For a few years in my adolescence, I would think I was bi one day, gay another day, bi another day, straight another day and the cycle repeats itself. At 17 I started thinking I was bi for months because it became clear that I like males, but I was still trying to convince myself that I liked females too. Then I finally realised I had no attraction to females whatsoever, that I’m just gay. I’m not the only gay guy who has been through this<

I did the same thing when I was in my early teens. I tried so hard to like men, only to release that I never would be able to. At least not in the way that I liked other women in.

I actually had a year long relationship with a guy in high school. Spent most of it coming up with ways to not sleep with him. Was a miserable experience, would not recommend.

Exactly. A lot of young homosexual people don’t consider that they’re gay until they realise they lack sexual attraction to the opposite sex, because homosexuals are a minority and society expects you to marry someone of the opposite sex.
