    ive been so confused lately, on everything from religion to sexuality. ive dated boys and girls, i am currently with a great guy hes everything a girl would want in a relationship but honestly i feel nothing there. there isnt one emotional attachment. i care of course but it just doesnt feel right. it feels like a lie to myself and to him. ive dated girls before but its never really worked out for whatever reasons. i like girls. i dont know why im having a hard time accepting this but it feels like im not in my right skin just wearing something nice if that makes sense. im not happy with how i feel emotionally, not depressed but just empty, vaccant. i wish i was able to be happy witht his guy but it just doesnt feel right. im just so confused on what to do. i think im so reluctant to accept to myself that i like girls because its always been a dissapointment for me. ive always got the raw end of the deal and screwed over, with guys it really doesnt happen. i cant really talk to my friends either, their not supportive of gay and lesbians, at least not with one of their friends, my familys the same way. how is someone suppose to figure themsevles out with these kinds of things around?

    All things take time. Rome wasn't built in a day, neither are your troubles going away in a day. I used to feel emptiness within, but it'll went away after a while. My advice would be: Take your time, relax, don't rush things. When you feel better, only should you start thinking and making decisions.

    Btw, it's my first time posting so yeah. I probably didn't really helped you, because I'm just not that good in socializing. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Honestly though, I wasn't really clear as to what you're trying to say. If I didn't really answer your question, sorry lol. I don't have a good command of the English language. :grin:

Do what makes you happy and if people cant accept that then u need some new friends. Idk if that helped haha but i tried

    you know its hard then! hes a great guy and ive met his family and all that, i think the relationship does have to end but hes become a bestfriend too and loves me. i dont want to hurt anyone thats the last thing i want to do. i hate having inner conflict with myself. i think that if i just go with the flow of things everything will work out as it should in the end but im starting to doubt that. i need to make a move on things in any direction other then where im at now. i think im going to try to talk to some of my more understand friends maybe sorta come out or atleast tell them how i feel, maybe itll clear some confusion up. ive posted several blogs just venting about all this and what not lol feel free to look!

    i know how you feel, i have been through it all with guys and girls. ive just never been open about being with girls and i think it was a problem for the girls i was with, i was open about being with one girl, she was the first girl i ever dated and it was a mess, shes a mess. im not really experienced either and i think its a factor too. i dont want hook ups i want the real deal with someone that it feels right with

    Hook ups suck i mean im not like a slut or anythng but i have had a few one night stands... it doesnt feel good. I would truely love the real thng but i would never admit that to my friends lol u need to just be with someone whose ok with u learning... someone just tld me on here and she made a good point that bein with someone when u have little experience is a good thng because they can teach u what they like u kno? It made me feel better
