Am i lesbian if so what do i do?

I don't know if I'm lesbian or not. I have have never really been atracted to men I mean I have a boyfriend and all but I just can't stand kissing him or thinking of makingout with him its like I can't stop thinking about him as a friend nothing else it's been the same with all my boyfriends.
My friends will sometimes see hot guys and talk about them and it doesn't even register that thier hot or attractive I don't feel anything.But lately I had this dream that I was a guy not a girl doing it to a girl.It felt normal in the dream and I liked it and I woke up and I was extremly confused by it. I also get butterflys in my stomach around pretty women. but you see here is the problem my family are extreme cristians VERY extreme christians. My father already openly makes fun of gays and lesbians and I fear if I say anything my family won't talk to me anymore, and that I will lose all my friends.I don't know anymore I'm so confused.Also last week I came to church and my friend ran up to me and hugged me really tightly and my lips brushed agaist hers and my heart increased and i felt turned on and for the rest of the day and following days i couldnt stop thinking about it...

Please in the comments tell your thoughts on if I am lesbian and if so what I should do and is it normal for all girls to feel this way? please give real answers and no christian answers on why this is wrong I already get engough listening to my parents...

    I really understand what you are going through. I am a bisexual girl. I like girls more but occasionally I'll go for guys... Anyway I am Christian also. Many types of Christians actually accept gay/lesbians especially episcopalian churches and others. There are a few reasons why this is...1) Christianity is about love NOT hate! Christians should love and accept gays even if they don't agree. 2)The bible says not to have same sex relationships. The reason for this is because at that time God needed his followers to procreate and breed new followers. So now what that basically means is that the more heterosexual couples the more babies which means more Christians. Now that the world is overpopulated this doesn't apply anymore. The bible also says not to use birth control for the same reason, however no one today thinks of using birth control as a sin. In fact many Christians push the use of birth control, condoms, safe sex etc. 3)The bible was written a very long time ago. It also seriously says not to eat shellfish (however no christians that i know worry about eating crab or shrimp) there are a bunch of ridiculous things like that that are too long to write, that was one example) 4) God made you who you are and he loves you for who you are!!!! Being a good Christian has nothing at all to do with your sexual preference. I know that no matter what your parents will never change their minds but who cares? You know who you are. I went through the same feelings when I realized that I liked girls. It's really exciting but scary too. I personally didn't tell anyone all through high school. Now that I'm in college I'm really open about it. Just wait until you are ready. You don't have to tell anyone until you are ready. Good Luck!!!

    This isn't a question of being normal or not normal. I think you should just check out girls and figure out if it works better for YOU. Many people do this experiment in college. Dudes think it's HOT too. If you decide that you're not into girls and that you like guys better, you're only HOTTER because you've done this experiment. It's a win-win situation. Do it.

    It sounds like you're a lesbian, just because of your reaction you described, but I mean... I'm not you so I can't say for certain

    And if you're worried about your family and friends. You're friends won't care if their really YOUR friends, you're life isn't dedicated to pleasing them. As for your family, I can't say

    It depends on what age you are. Based on the' my parents are christian' thing I'd guess you're a teenager. Almost all teenagers have gay thoughts (though many deny them because of their religion and whatnot) It's perfectly normal, and even if it turns out you are a lesbian, so what? Gay people are people too! I'd say that if there was a christian person (that's supposed to accept everyone) saying a gay person is immoral and should burn because it's 'their choice' to be gay, than they are the immoral one, because anyone who belongs to an all-accepting religion and doesn't accept someone for something they can't control is a controversal nut job that obviously has their morals backwards. Your parents should love you for YOU. Not for you sexuality, looks, etc. What you do doesn't define you, it's who you are. Best of luck.

  • Well i'd say that you are a lesbian if even the thought of men doesnt interest you. Its definately not a bad thing , you cant help who you are attracted to ! infact the thought of a sexy girl turns me on , the thought of a naked guy just makes me think..." so what :/" ,id say that you should try it first before you make a big decision to tell your parents :) wait till you move out haha xD xxx good luck!

    I'm catholic and if you are lesbian it was god who made you that way.. can't change who you are nor should you want to.. you are the one living your life and not your parents, so i can imagine it must b hard but I still think you should be who you are meant to be lesbian and all.

    Be who you are, and say what you feel. because those who mind dont matter, and those who matter don't mind

    their is nothing wrong with being lesbain
    and if your dad loves you there is no way he will stop talking to you
    he mite for a week or two but then he will remember that he loves you and that this is how god made you and that not talking to you will not change this

    Amen to that TyLee - I loved your point about the Bible C:
    It sounds to me that you like girls, which isn't "normal" for EVERY girl, but it *is* normal for you!
    If you feel it's the right thing to do, tell your friends. But don't feel pressured to - who you fancy and who you love is *your* business, no-one else's. As far as your parents go, if you feel you can be open with them, tell them, but only when you feel ready.
    Being young, fancying people and falling in love is supposed to be fun - and we can't help who we fall for. Just enjoy it, and don't try to mask any feelings you have C:

    I THINK what you should do is date a girl...you have a relationship and all. And if it feels right to YOU, then it's up to you on whether or not you feels like you're a lesbian. Who gives a damn what your parents think? It's your life, you're decision. They cannot tell you who you are or how to feel. Because all that should matter to them is if you're happy. Lesbian or Not A Lesbian.

    Hey I'm pretty sure you're lesbian and many gays have parents who don't favor homosexuality, you aren't the only one so don't worry. I think you should go for it!

    Mein Schnitzel is mein german...mein sassuage sizzle vermin...mein kupel Sheizer kompin Fuhrer chicken for mein german.

    Now that I have your attention. Lesbian relationships are all about disease spreading whores who are vain in their thoughts and disgusting human beings. They are filth and there is no such thing as true 'lesbian' love so of course there's no unconditional love here.

    A husband and wife having sex for pleasure and procreation within the sanctity of marriage is the only outlet for sex. Don't be a smelly silly dirty fanny granny lesbo. Be a straight instead and you'll get a nice man eventually.

    God bless,

    Stall the ball. I'm Irish, so we're kinda loose about the whole Christianity thing, meaning: We're not homophobic(granted there are a few pricks that are) but the majority are good. My family over in the states told me all about the whole extreme homophobic/Christian thing and that's really lousy on you. I think you should try it out in a safe place. Go to a gay bar in a nearby town. Experiment a bit. Now I'm not one to use labels, but it does kinda sound like you're a lesbian. You may only have a BF because you feel the need to have one to please your family and peers. Try and chill out and be yourself if you do go to a gay bar. You might find what you're looking for over the gay rainbow. (fyi, I'm also a lesbian)

    To my old school standards why I deem it wrong it is because it is immoral. By today's standards however it is much more acceptable. It would exacerbate some things sure, but people will still love and accept you. I have both a lesbian and gay friend. I still love and accept them as I would anybody.

      jeez...don't force the girl to have sex with her BF, she doesn't even like kissing him. She enjoyed the brief encounter with her friend's lips, so she should try and kiss other girls. She might discover who she really is then

    if people actually believed the bible (or other religious books) they wouldnt eat shellfish or wear clothes of different material together, but no they only pay attention to the gays. Whats worse they try to convert them (never works) because its not a choice, your born with it. Ur problem is u dont know if everyone around u will accept u? The only thought that comes to mind is, if everyone actually cared and loved u, they will just accept you. (the only few cures for non gay homophobes is to give birth to a gay). And yes u probably are a lesbian. Its not wrong, Its genetic or a random gene mutation or whatever but saying its wrong is like saying asians or blacks or caucasians are wrong, because they happened out of mutation. Either way just test the waters and see how others react. But eventually you have to come out. You cannot live your life if you pretend any longer.

    Being gay is perfectly normal. Unfortunately, there are a lot of religious zealots who don't think so. I can't give any advise on how to handle your parents. Hopefully they will love and accept you if you are gay. It is possible that it is a phase, but maybe not. I would suggest seeking out an online lesbian community. You might learn more about yourself. You will certainly learn that you are not alone.

    im athiest. i have been since 9th grade. i have been bi since 8th grade. ive kissed as many girls as i have boys and the memories of each individual gives me butterflies in my stomack. even though im not with many of them i still love them in a way. i am in two very happy relationships at the molment. one is a woman the other a man. they both make my heart flutter and both know about eachother. they are friends and the even compare notes on me sometimes. before i figured out that i like men and women i was very confused. i turned athist in that time. i dont regret my religious choices or my sectuality choices. its up to u. play aound a little have fun but make sure u know what u want before you tell your parents.

    well you could be a lesbian but no one is born homosexual my girl , its all psychological stuff , u make ur self a lesbian by thinking so much about that or hating guys for some reason you may or may not know , the reason may go back 2 ur early childhood experiences , all i know is that u gotta have sex and u gotta get the way u want it dont think much about being lesbian or being straight as it all doesnt matter think about what u really want and do it my child as u only have one life and only have a few years where u could still be called a young pretty girl !so enjoy ur life and dont think much about irrelevant stuff & dont frame urself as a lesbian
