You kissed a boy and you didn't like it. That doesn't mean you dislike every boy outhere. Your rumination makes you get into unreal conclusions.

You are attracted to bodies. And shapes. Or figures. If you fell in love with someone I think that is pretty different. If you like "fictional men" you still like men bodies, you enjoy watching men bodies. If you were 6 years with the same person that is just not attaction, that is love. That means you probably love hin. First stop googling because is only going to hurt you more. And stop generalizing everything, that is common in ocd. You are you. And what you feel is only yours, and what you believe is only yours. If other people have other theories about sexuality or whatever, other perspectives, is their fucking problem. In hocd we have a malfunction in our brains. We had a trauma first and then to make stop the anxiety, that came with it, we create compulsions. And when you repeat the compulsions over and over til no end, your brain adequate to make you feel fear every time the theme is in front of your eyes. The doubts are out and desperation comes to your door. We also are not ready to understand that you can be straight(or whatever sexuality) and be attracted to sexual things, great bodies or just see someone atractive and think: wow how attractive. And just that, is just a thought. It doesn't have meaning above that. It doesn't mean your life is going to change forever. All because of the disorder. What you did in the past, is in the past. So don't get into conclusions so extreme. Who you want to be now? What do you feel you need to concentrate now?

Yes i know! I don't think i have any or i don't know if any of my friend belongs to the lgbt community. I just don't know why but now i wish i could have a friend who's a lesbian. it gave me a sense of relief. It would be so much easier for me to share all that i am going through with her.

No it doesn't mean i don't like him. I was there with him for 6 years. We would never have broken up had it not been for family issues. We even decided to get back together after our career is all settled. I don't know if i disliked it but i did not feel anything. I still blush when i talk about it with my best friend but why did i not feel anything while doing it

Today on the internet i read about compulsory heterosexuality. I felt as if i am the same case. It said "attraction to fictional men is not the same as attraction to real men" And " Wanting a man to be attracted to you is not the same as being attracted to them" I do wanted boy's attention but i don't think i was attracted to them and i do have a few girl crushes in the past. But then when i think about it, if i was really a lesbian why would i even be with the guy for 6 years while wanting to continue the relationship if i was not attracted to him or why would i only fantasize about men. Even if i had girl crushes i never fantasized about them. Heck now i don't even know what attraction would feel like. I searched on the internet on the signs if attraction. All these are mentally exhausting. It really feels like i was never attracted to boys and only wanted their attention and nothing else and all i was attracted to were girls

Truly speaking. The only thing that i am interested in now is building up my career and getting rid of my insecurities that i have regarding my looks.i just want to stay away from everything including any kind of attraction. I have a very little confidence in me. Even if i am good in something i still think myself to be inferior to other people around me. For now i really only want to concentrate on building up my overall personality and nothing else.

I really don't want to care who am i attracted to. I don't know if i should share this or not but my dream is to become a big youtuber. But just the fact that i have noticed that youtubers often get asked about their sexualities and they have to meet up with new people including both boys and girls is making me feel uneasy!

Yeah i will. I just need to get rid of the thoughts. I sometimes think that if i kiss a guy i will feel void and that i won't feel anything but then i think of it with a girl and it feels like i will like it and it will be engaging and not void and it somewhat scares me. Now i really need to stop these thoughts and concentrate on what's important. Thankyou

So i started to feel like a lesbian again and that i have to be one. I dont want to be one. I just dont. But being straight feel like a lie now. I question my whole life, my feelings and everything. The biggest indicator of this must be that i will be slowly 21 year old and ive never dated anyone and i dont really find anyone attractive and i dont even know if i truly was attracted to someone and im scared of relationships i might have trauma or have anxious avoidant attachment. Help me. I do feel lost. Really lost. I dont know who am I anymore. I feel like that i must have been gay my whole life now. I feel like an alien. I sometimes feel like 2 people are living inside of me.😞😞😞

Is anyone here going throughbSOOCD while being in a relationship? If yes, do you feel like “something is missing” even tho everything is great? My OCD keeps on telling me “you’re settling” or “yeah you’re happy with what you have but its nothing compared to what you would be feeling if you were with a girl, but you’re with your bf for society!” Im soo tired!! When I look at him I find him so attractive and handsome but i dont know if im attracted to him or if he’s just attractive!! And while growing up I was never “pulled by guys” but I thought that everyone was this way! I also used to look at girls because I found them Beautiful but I thought that everyone used to look at them this way! I think what truly bothering me is “comphet” and the “lesbian masterdoc”. Like I feel like I can relate to some points! Yes I used to choosw my crushes growing up but it felt like everyone used to do the same thing! As for my current bf, we started out as friend and then it turned into something else but now im scared I just agreed to being his gf because “that’s what I had to do” and im scared that he’s my “beard”. I particularly got triggered yesterday because my friends were talking about their celebrities crush and I couldnt think about anyone without forcing it! Instead I could easily think about kristen stewart or someone with the same vibe. All of this + my feelings must mean something no??? I just want to feel “in love” my bf is perfect!

Hi everyone, I’ve been really anxious lately, and I just need to get this out of my head. Someone recently told me that maybe I’m bisexual — that I might be more sexually attracted to women, but more romantically attracted to men. That bisexuality is not 50/50. And ever since I heard that, I’ve been spiraling. The thing is: I don’t want this to be true. It scares me. I don’t feel romantic attraction to women, I’ve never wanted to be in a relationship with one. But yes, I get aroused by fantasies involving women — and that makes me feel broken or like I’ve been lying to myself. I love my boyfriend deeply, I don’t want to lose him. I want to feel fully connected to him, physically and emotionally. But now I’m stuck in this obsessive loop of questioning: “What if I’m just in denial?” “What if I’m not really straight?” “What if this is why my libido is low?” It’s exhausting, and I don’t know if this is OCD, anxiety, or if something is fundamentally wrong. Has anyone else felt this split — romantic feelings for one gender, sexual feelings for another? I feel so alone and scared. Thanks for listening.
