Maybe I’m not gay or into guys.

I met this guy, nothing serious. But like he was handsome and cute but…I wasn’t into it. Like how I was into it before. 😭 what’s going on with me? Am I actually straight?!?!?! Cause 😏 that’ll be very shocking 😭

@Nanori too many look to categorize themselves? They can't understand it's useless - not even going into non-binary theory.

@Nanori I just want to be “normal” idk… being sexually abused at such a young age fucked me up, and I was only familiar with the same sex, since that’s is what I dealt with growing up. So, in my head I thought that’s what I was and have been doing it for years, but it never felt right

@Jokekilla Normal is very hard to define than. Your normal includes abuse. It's sadly normal, while you know it's tragically hurtful. I do hope you are seeing a therapist, there is only so much help you can find just alone by yourself and on social media.

@SW-User I’ve seen 3 therapist and none can help. Maybe I need to see a psychologist, because having sex with the same gender is all I know, and I guess is “normal” in my brain. But I know that it’s wrong and coming from the abuse that I never really solved.
It’s weird to think cause I have physical evidence that I was like a straight kid when I was small I had girlfriends and my mom has a photo album of me with them but after the abuse everything changed.
After I had sex with guys…I feel disgusted and I hate myself for what I did because it wasn’t right. But yet I keep going back for more but it doesn’t feel right, it just feels right when they use my body for their pleasure…

@Jokekilla Having sex with the same gender here, should really not matter - unless that is not what you want. Finding a compatiable therapist is not easy, and options are often limited. I had one at one time, I swear I could trick, and each time I did it became easier. One day, I brought up how my father died, years in. She thought it was the first time. It wasn't. I never saw her again.

I know people tie together their selves and their sexuality; but don't get overwhelmed by it please - you aren't groping children, you aren't fantasing sex with (take your pick).... sexuality itself is normal.

I do feel some healing, acceptance, away from insecurity you have buried, tucked away is of order, though.
