Maybe this will go away, and I will be normal? I am only 17.

Why worry? If you're attracted to guys, you're attracted to guys. There's no harm in that! Maybe it will go away, maybe it won't. Either way, enjoy life and quit worrying!
Whatever you decide, don't listen to anyone who brings God into this ... after all, Jesus didn't have a woman and travelled round with a group of random men ...

Hi Alex. Maybe it will go away but I think this is kind of unlikely. God made you like this! It's perfectly fine. I note the lack of homophobic taunts here, which is really positive, and I note some hideously bigoted comments by some Christians who feel quite sure they know what God will say on the matter.
May you grow up to be happy and accept yourself as you are, and through this love and acceptance may you fall in love and love deeply, accepting others as they are. Glory in the beautiful young man that God has created in you and spread the love and when you are ready get some good (probably homsexual) sex.

You need to search within yourself and find your truth. I am a Christian and I do believe that homosexuality is wrong. I do not know your beliefs But if you are a Christian you need to pray and honestly listen and recieve what God tells you. You need to be strong and if you want that change it will happen for you. If you are truly concerned and you feel like you are inpure by your thaughts you may need to seek out some additional help.... A pastor a friend or someone you feel close enough to that you can talk about this openly. Good luck

I am unconvinced that this is a problem. I don't think that you are having these feelings by choice.
Many people disagree with me, and this will likely cause a flamewar, but the fact of the matter is that a lot of people do not choose their sexual orientation.
I know for a fact that I didn't choose mine, I happen to be heterosexual, but there is no aspect of choice in that. I was simply made that way.
I submit that if you have never choosen to be homosexual, than it cannot be a decision you made. It is simply a fact of your existence.
The next paragraph, will be blasted by a lot of people, who will probably try telling me that I'm condemned to hell for typing it, and for believing it.
If you are not making a choice, you cannot be held accountable for making a choice. You are simply accepting reality. If you have not decided that you want to be attracted to guys, then it's not an issue of what you want, but rather WHO you ARE. If you believe in God, then you must accept that God created you, and made you what you are.
Maybe the test is the mercy of Christ, who came to enlighten, save, and accept those who were seen, at the time, as sinners. Christ accepted all children of God, without qualm. People with troubled pasts walked with him. Doubters and disbelievers were exalted in his presence. Peter, who indeed betrayed him, certainly a sin, undoubtably a terrible thing, denying God, PUBLICLY, was made the first pope.
To detractors of my Entry:
If you wish to be a Christian, then do not judge. Christ showed mercy, when everyone pointed to scripture and said "Stone Them! They Must be stoned! It says so right here on page 7!".
Christ showed unending mercy.
Can you? Or do you prefer to cast hate and misery.

Friend, I say you do no wrong. I say that you are a test of mankind, to see if we can rise above hate.

You cant purely tuck away your genuine thoughts in case you particularly love this guy you may desire to allow him know and doubtless some thing will take place and your different spouses or friends will might desire to manage that yet once you dont ask its a assure no longer something will take place and by employing the way i will allow you recognize experience approximately this guy it quite is a great mistake to easily no longer tell him your genuine thoughts.

Go with your heart. If you are attracted to guys, be attracted to guys. Repressing yourself will only cause you suffering. There is nothing wrong with your being attracted to guys. There are online groups for young people that are going through the same thing as you, so you are not alone in this.

The only thing I can give you is Turn to God! He is the only one who can take away those unwanted desires and replace them with good ones. We all have different challenges in our lives. God allows them to come into our lives cuz He knows we can overcome them. Sometimes when we feel we can't do it on our own is when we need to turn to Him and ask for His help. Be honest and sincere about what you need and He will give it to you. Surround yourself with good people who will support you in your decision to stay away from that and who will hold you accountable. Keep your thoughts and emotions in check and you will be able to resist those temptations to act on those feelings and desires. Good luck and I will be praying for you!

It is normal for most adolescent men to have questions within themselves about their sexuality. I think that if you are fighting with feelings that you have inside, then you should go see a therapist who can help you to either understand why you have these thoughts, or to come to terms with who you really are.

It can be normal at your age. Probably due to the hormonal changes.Mainly, stop worrying about it and try to mix with girls more.
