I have always been very attracted to women, and I am in my first gay long-term relationship. Even being gay myself, I can't shake off the feeling that something is wrong with me. I keep asking myself, why do I have to be gay? Why is it me who is gay? as if it is an illness of sorts. I have not come to terms with this aspect of myself. I sometimes wish I was straight, and I sometimes wish I didn't think like that and could just accept myself. How can I get over my self-loathing homophobia? Needless to say, my family does not accept it, many people from my childhood do not accept it, and I don't really have any gay people in my circle, except for my girlfriend. What should I do to get over it, and feel like it's ok to be gay?
