Is it normal to want to change your sexuality?

im a lesbian but ive only told two people that i am bi. i cant tell anyone else as my family is really homophobic and would kick me out my friends would not accept me and it would give the people at college another reason to make fun of me. i have had boyfriends but not a girlfriend because i dont think ill ever have a successful relationship with a girl as i cant accept who am i. i really want to end up with a guy as its more accepted and also to have kids because its really difficult to adopt anyway but its even harder to adopt a child if your a lesbian couple. i would do anything to be straight i have nothing against gay people i really envy the ones that are proud of their sexuality. is this normal? and do you think ill ever accept my sexuality?

    ok fuck who ever said go to conversion camp. you cant ignore your heart no matter how fast you run from it. just let it come to you don't run from it or to it. I'm gay and it took me 5 years to accept it. Its okay to be okay and its ok to love yourself for it. If you cant love the fact that your gay I will love you and I will accept you

    Well there is people who have tried. You could maybe try "Gay to straight" camp. I think it would be healthier to accept yourself for who you are.

    I do a lot of stuff my family is not aware of and I keep it all in the closet. Its not like your family needs to know everything and neither do your friends. We are allowed to have a closet. Its not like we need to be open books.

    No, not everyone is going to accept you for who you are. You cant let those people make you hate yourself for it. However there is people who claim to have changed gayness and claim they can change sexuality.

    I think sexuality is mostly in your mind along with hormones. I don't believe that being gay is a gene. I believe that its based on hormones and how they balance out. They have also proved in a few people who are gay or have what are considered gay tendencies to have a different balance of hormones.

    When you hit puberty who you like is based on hormones. As well as your liking's coming with experiences, reactions and liking's you develop as a child. I don't think anyone is born gay. I think people become gay, straight or whatever during puberty.

    Sounds like your biggest issue is you are unsure of how you feel. There is nothing at all wrong with being bi, regardless if you identify mostly as straight or lesbian. And more families are getting used to - although slowly - of alternative sexuality in thier kids. The important thing is - don't label yourself, or let other people do it for you. Your body, heart, and mind have desires - let them have what they want and the hell with what people think. Be happy

    Grow some nuts, girl! If your family doesn't accept you at first, then FUCK'EM! I can almost guarantee they will come around eventually. And friends aren't your friends if they don't accept you for you! You are who you are! I'm gay too, so trust me, it feels so great to just say FUCK YOU to all the bigots out there. IT GETS BETTER

    I changed my name to Occupant because I wasn't getting much mail. Now I have lots to read.

    The only thing that is important is to accept yourself as whoever you are. I hope you can, I have, and life got so much better when I did

  • Ive learned in life the best thing to do is make yourself happy. Do what makes you the the happyist and fuck everyone else. I know its hard but would you rather live in misery or be happy.We all have to make choices in life but do u what to be that person regreting what you did and say if i went that way. What im saying at least see how it feels to be on the other side of the road and if u dont like it just come back thats all...

    You've got a LOT of maturing to do..perhaps then you'll be ready. You seem a little "behind" for someone who is college age. Give it time.
