    I am a 22 year old young woman, and for the past 3 years (after my divorce to my highschool sweetheart) have realized that I am attracted to women...but I don't really know how to feel about that. I have no children (thank God) but that is not what concerns me- what concerns me is that I was raised in a particular faith that constantly condemns homosexual relationships and I do still believe in that faith, but I can not deny that I have been finding myself to be more and more attracted to the same sex. I have a family member who is lesbian- so It would not be a big deal if I were to decide to live that lifestyle but I question can I be christian and bisexual???? Its racking my brain just thinking about it. And what makes me nervous is how to go about this- I really want to talk to women but I am picky because as with men I do not want to be involved with just "anybody". I want the companionship and close friendship of a woman, as well as a relationship. I really don't know where to go or what to do.:help::help:

    Is your past marriage a bad memory? If so, maybe you are hurt and get tired from men then you prefer women who make you feel more comfortable.
    I also had some bad experiences with men and I gradually prefer to be with women because we can understand and treat well to each other. Maybe it is just sympathy, not love or sexual attraction.
    I think we need some advices from professional psychologists to find the right answer. Is there any specialists on this aspect in this forum? Pls advice!

Lol :slight_smile: But to answer your questions yes I have been hurt, even recently but I do have a sexual attraction to women baah Idk whats going on :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:
