Ok....here it is after 4 long years of wondering, I have asked you all and you have told me, I have asked one of my bi-friends and they told me their opinion. I feel comfortable when im around men, and have had a crush on one before. I like girls, but only as far as hanging out with them, and I don't have intimate feelings about them. I like showing emotion and don't care what people think when I do it. Anytime I think about a man and having relations with one, I get arroused, but when I think about it with a women, nothing really happens. This is my first step to admitting it to myself and others. I think I am Gay, and im ok with it. (I feel really releaved at saying this and believing it, I feel happy and less confused/stressed about it....Thanks for you for helping me!!!!!!!)
That is cool that you are comfortable in saying it. Im glad that you feel a sense of relief. And remember thats what we are all here for.
Yup yup yup, congrats on taking that first step! Those are pretty much the criteria that I discovered, too.
Step 1: Admit it! (yaaaay! go you ) Step 2: Accept it! The second part may sound like the first, but accepting and loving yourself, gay and all, can be really hard. Just dont freak out if you dont feel comfortable being gay right after you admit you are. But congratulations, thats a big step! (*hug*)
Congratulations, self-acceptance is one of the hardest things to do. So congrats on coming to terms with it
The next thing is like yall say accepting it, yet the port I fear is coming out to others. But I can wait on that, and so I will!
Hey, you did the inventory and analysis. Congratulations(!). No hurry on the rest. It takes a while to swallow (no pun intended...wait). Three years ago I had that same great feeling of relief. I finally knew where I belonged. Welcome to the club :smilewave.
Yeah, really well done! That's fabulous news - not that you're gay, but that you've figured out who you are and you're ok with that. It's a really big 'milestone' and you are rightly pleased to have achieved it. Like you, we most of us have also experienced that feeling of 'relief' or even 'euphoria' at no longer feeling so confused. Just keep in mind that you are still you, and that's who everyone around you will still see. Being gay is just a part of what contributes to who you are, and not your whole identity; and look, you can take as long as you need before you take any further steps or not. It's still your life and your right, gay or otherwise. Take care and congratulations, Kayar. X
congradulations on finding yourself. It took me many years also to be absolutely sure of my sexuality too, and I feel I am a more confident person now that I have admited that truth to others.
