I'm agreeing with dappled AND ccjigsaw on this one.
Your situation is quite complex and talking to a Councillor wouldn't be a bad idea.
IMHO and going off the limited information I have here, you seem to have a conflict between societal (and religious) expectations/standards and what you are truly feeling and wanting.
I lightly ran into this problem a few times, but not the extent that you seem to have.
Your situation seems more complex and possibly delicate than what IIN can offer you for advice and help.
If you don't seek a councilor, I will suggest that you try to figure out what YOU want and NOT what is expected from you. Separating outside pressure and influence from your own wants and desires is one of the biggest leaps toward figuring yourself out and getting on the path of what will make YOU happy, not your parents, not your church or religion, not your friends, etc... YOU.
It's not easy, especially alone, but it's doable.
I'd still re-suggest seeing a councilor though, they really can be very helpful :)
Is it normal that I'm confused and sexually repressed?
