I recently entered puberty when I got 13 and hormones hit me like a truck. I have adhd so I always thought of live more maturely, I used to do plans of my life which include me getting married and having 2 kids with my future life. After I got to puberty I first experienced sexual attraction, but I wasn't really attracted to girls like all my other friends. I realized that I wasn't straight but I wasn't really bothered about it since I had already changed my plans and considered that if I want kids I can adopt one too or if I want it to be the same DNA with me do the process with one woman that she gives birth to the kid and then gives it to us. I thought that I was totally gay and that I can't change anything. I thought about coming out to my sister with is 10 years older than me. I knew I could rely to her to keep a secret but she started with "you are just confused" etc. and I didn't even give a lot of attention to it at the moment but I considered that I am not totally homosexual AND homoromantic because I kind of like girls but not to have sex with them, just to love them, cuddle with them and hug/kiss. I am really confused about my orientation because I have no idea how can someone have a normal life as a heteroromantic homosexual. Help and advices would be very welcome :icon_sad:
Hello and welcome to EC! You're young, don't worry so much about what you'll do, being a heteroromantic homosexual. You're not the only one in this situation and besides, you're you and everyone's perfect the way they are. Your sister reacted like that because in some cases, especially in males, when they hit puberty they have this "phase" when they're into guys and it passes. My opinion would be to give it some more time and see what happens then. If you ever need someone to vent to, I'm here. Lots of love, Andy
