I'm seeing this girl and when I have sex with her or have foreplay with I get this little voice in my head saying this is disgusting or eww. And i don't know if I'm enjoying it. Please help !

I feel like I find men attractive I just don't know. I still get my head turned by women and even go wow when I see a hot woman. I'm just so confused by it all š
@Ihateocd83 Sometimes I found some fun when going through that theme, Iād be talking to a girl I was really interested in, and sometimes even get aroused thinking about our interaction later in the day. Iād be like, ādamn, well Iām going to be one conflicted gay guy if I keep wanting to have sex with girls like this! ā
@Ihateocd83 The more you think about it, the more distorted and confusing it gets. Iāve gotten to a place where I try to accept that I may be bi sexual and that one day I might decide to experiment with guys. Iāve definitely learned to accept that I will find men attractive - pretty damn sure every human on the planet acknowledges attractiveness in other people, regardless of sexual orientation.
Thanks for your help š
I keep saying in my head i want to marry a man....I'm not sure where this came from or if its true but I know it really freaks me out and upsets me š
@Ihateocd83 That would freak me out and upset me as well. You can imagine yourself getting engaged to a man for following that voice and being really upset about it the whole time. Youāll be like the most unhappy engaged person on the planet when talking with family and friends. There will be a Tik Tok video someone films of you proposing to the guy, and youāre all pissed off about proposing, and heās oblivious and all happy about it. Or, he proposes to you, and youāre like the most annoyed and reluctant person ever to say yes to a wedding proposal, youāre like, āWell, the voice in my head said Iād marry a man, so this is what Iāll do I guess.ā
I really felt something last night with the woman I'm seeing and the kissing is great and I wanted to kiss her and cuddle her
Yeah maybe....I'm not sure if I have feelings and desire for women. God women were everything me once and its almost like I'm forcing it to much. And these thoughts about men are pretty much constant. But I feel like I can't give into this.
@Ihateocd83 I know man - I can relate to the feelings and experience. All I can say for me was when I stopped doing the compulsions and leaning into the obsession more, it got better over time
I literally just had the same thing. Ignore it. I enjoyed and I'm sure you are too!
Hard to ignore...because it goes on afterwards aswel. I don't know how I'm supposed to have another relationship or see a girl properly again. I mean I'm 40 now and my life is just passing me by
As hard as it is, you've got to let the thoughts, feelings and everything else just be there. X
Thanks š
Dude yeah that would be so annoying for me to experience as well! Maybe you can play around with the voice next time and ask it if youāll get cooties from touching a girl. What you donāt want is to stop having sex with this girl youāre seeing due to the discomfort of the thoughts.
I just feel so trapped š
@Ihateocd83 I feel you man itās so annoying. You still do have the choice to be intimate with your girlfriend, despite the annoyance of thoughts.
Accepting I might be bi sexual helps me because it would be VERY hard to convince myself that I donāt like women⦠so instead I just try to roll with it and accept that I may be bi-sexual and at this point Iām not entirely sure if I am or not.
It seems quite real and comes with feelings like I want it. I try not to fight my mind or ruminate. Am I really unhappy about It just don't know. It just doesn't stop and feels like I've got to do it or end my life. My mind trys to make me feel disgust about women....sometimes I get men are better or something like that. Or when I kiss this woman I'm seeing. And i get Wish this was a man and stuff like that. I'm pretty sure I don't tho. I feel like I'm losing control
@Ihateocd83 Tell your OCD, well, I do wish this was a man, Iām just settling for a woman now until I get what I really want ;)
This just doesn't seem like ocd thoughts to me ??
Well thatās good - try not to get too āexcitedā about that. Reason I say that is- youāre probably using that experience and feelings as a form of reassurance that youāre straight.
How do you mean lean into it ??
@Ihateocd83 Good question- for me, esp with the gay OCD, I would use humor. So when the theme would get strong and confusing thoughts, feelings, I would look for opportunities to pretend I was gay, like say, ālook at the butt on that, he must work outā (quoting Dumb and Dumber). Just looked for opportunities throughout the day to make jokes about implicit or explicit ways I would be āgay.ā Not sure if that makes sense but it did for me- I didnāt have a set plan, it was more of like an intentional thing that instead of cowering back from my theme and staying stuck and all those opposing thoughts and feelings and doing my mental compulsions in the confines of my mind , I was going to face the world and address me being āgay.ā
@Ihateocd83 My main theme now is that Iām Autistic. Had the theme for years. Unfortunately I havenāt yet found humor to work as well. I will joke about me being Autistic or possibly Autistic and people will laugh (just like the gay one). Still, I havenāt really noticed that itās made a difference in the level of negative emotions and softened the urge to do compulsions as it did with gay OCD. Honestly Iām not sure why humor worked so well with the gay OCD and not this one. Maybe because me and my friends growing up would always play around like that so it was more natural, and maybe because the humor I used was actually a lot damn funnier than with the Autism, like maybe I need to be more creative and exaggerated w the Autism one
Like I canāt think straight. This is making me doubt everything Iāve thought about myself and even makes me feel like I like the thoughts when I know I donāt. Like I would be less anxious at a time while I still have the thoughts and my mind would go āoh so you like it you must be gayā or the other one where Iām not anxious and I think of my attraction for girls that Iāve had my whole life and my mind goes āsee now youāre not into them youāre gayā like itās so stupid but so effective. I clearly remember being into girls my whole life but my mind is making me believe that all these attractions and feelings for women were all fake or āa thing of the pastā. But I can still get aroused by women but I have this weird anxiety going on which brings these sensations/feelings and itās so weird. Today Iāve spent my whole day thinking about it like Iāve been doing for 5 months now. I know that this aint normal but my mind just wonāt let me live in peace. I never cared about my sexuality cuz I simply liked women my whole life but now my sexuality is a fundamental philosophy. I hate this.
I really dont know if it is ocd anymore I dont want certain sexual things with my bf anymore that i used to like When i envision it with a girl it is so easy to envision and it feels like i want that , that will give me the satisfaction This feeling is making me really question if i am still into men , desire men sexually Is this still ocd , i really dont know anymore , as it is a feeling it is too real
hi iām a lesbian! and i have known im a lesbian for a really long time and i have a sweet girlfriend of 1 year. it all started when i saw this masc lesbian come out as straight, after that i had my guy friend over and heās a sweet guy and he was flirting with me (he didnāt know i was gay) im not sure but i panicked and my brain froze and i was like ādo i like himā, ever since my brain has been over worked 24/7 for 2 months now and itās spiralling constantly. im trying to control it but all these thoughts are so disgusting and my brain tries to put him and i in scenarios that make me uncomfortable and i feel panic and i hate it. i have always been comfortable being a lesbian and i still am comfortable as a lesbian, but i dislike these thoughts i have about him and men and i want it to be over. i do not want to experiment with men even tho my brain is telling me i do, i find it disgusting and i dread it, i have a sweet girlfriend and i want to be with her forever, i do not imagine anything with any men and i hate these thoughts. im scared of becoming bisexual/straight one day and i hate hearing sexuality is fluid. its a whole mix of comphet and so-ocd
