My sexuality is scaring me

[TLC1970JAN]

Nothing to really be nervous about.

The folks inside will def welcome you. The business exists because enough people go there to support it.

Stop in, grab an iced tea (looks like a mixed drink) and test the waters.

If you don't like it, you can get out.

You seem to have a fear of facing the real you me thinks. Please don't be offended.

I am a bit I feel. Gay guys look so good too, I do not

[TLC1970JAN]

You need to read through these threads.

Life and Love are not about looks. Relationships foundations that are founded on looks fade fast because everyone ages and time takes its toll on everyone.

Good relationships are built on common interests, sharing everything with each other, having a best friend when everyone else has abandoned you.

Others looking for a "relationship" are not looking at looks... they are looking at your personality. Will this person care about me? Will this person support and nurture me and help me to do the same for them, etc.

I know thats true, its just so awkward. I don't know anything, I don't even really know if I would like being with a guy. I know I will never lnow unless I try. I feel so silly, having no experience at my age. I know these are excuses. How do I get past them?

[TLC1970JAN]

When you say you'll never know until you try, you make a very clear statement.

Straight guys simply don't say that.

Go out and have a good time, let everything else happen naturally. Don't rush it, don't force it, just have fun!

I know I am not straight, but I am not gay either

Hi Hank, we have come down many roads to get where we are, there is no one pat answer to the questions you seek, religion overall is not against us, just a extreme few, in my humble opinion God isn't against us either.
Finding your way through all the flack is a journey worth taking, finding peace at glbtq center's and glbtq churchs helps.
And if this helps I also was molested as a youth, try and get past that and live your life as you see fit, our stories are here, in time you will add your own, Jim

Thank you, my issue is that I hav completely repressed it, I have no idea what happened. I got my brother to open up today, he was the one who told on him. He told me things I don't remember. I want to deal with it and move on but I can't. No idea how to when I have no memory

[James]

I have no memory of my hundred plus motorcycle accident that left me in a coma for three days, the mind suppresses those things that could damage the psyche, live life, if the memory finally returns remember you have moved on and now it is just an antidote along the way but has no meaning in your present life, James

I just wish I could get past it, I still think that that is why I am bisexual, I guess I couldn't change it even if it was
