I have for a while 'fancied' someone who I know is gay. I was very much attracted to him and other men to a lesser extent. I saw him one evening and thought that i should come out (To everyone) just so that i had a chance of being with him. I however discovered that he had unfriended me on FB. I know that sound pathetic, but it means he doesn't really know who i am and one assumes doesn't like me back. Well anyway, after this "rejection" i find myself no longer attracted to anyone. I thought somehow that this meant being gay (as i have known myself to be for several years) was just a "phase" so started trying to look at straight porn, which made me feel ill. So turns out I'm not straight but find none attractive. Is this normal after a "rejection" when will my normal eye for men return. I was considering coming out but this has made me doubt whether i am indeed gay. Sorry for the rambling post, i am really just thinking aloud, any responses would be great.
Welcome to EC! Your response is perhaps somewhat extreme but not overly unusual. Usually it manifests itself more along the lines of a mopey, teenage-like "fine - I'm done with guys FOREVER" attitude. If you're currently not attracted to anybody, or even that horny, that's fine - just don't date (or masturbate) for the time being. Assumedly, things will shake back to normal in due course. Lex
