i think it would make you question your sexual preference a become curious about the other sex. i have been in relationships where the guy treated me like crap, and i swore to myself i am done dating. but then u get a realtiy check when u meet a good guy it's like a wake up call. i strongly believe in the saying u have to kiss a lot of frogs before u find your prince. so just be patient and think of everything you encounter or that happens to u as a learning experience that which doesn' t kill u makes u stronger. this is how a cope with dating and other issues. good luck, it just takes time to find the right person

This is a tough one, but i will give it a try. A person can change his or her sexual preference if what you mean by hurt means getting hurt in a relationship. Not all of us are strong to deal with the pain of a broken heart or any thing related to relationships.
My personal conclusion is that a man or a woman should have friends from different backgrounds and races when ever possible. The reason I'm saying so is that we are not all from the same place and have issues to deal with people and different races. Some times a group of positive friends and family when possible can go a long way. Some times you have Relation ship issues that you can't tell your parents or those close to you for fear of being put down. Lots of parents and people can't help at all. Some times those of us that are lucky to have people other than family to talk to about relationships issues especially; if you are new to relationships and having your heart broken for the first time are lucky.

I don't think getting hurt by one person would make you change your sexual preference, but it might make you wonder what qualities the person who hurt you has, and know better not to make the same mistake next time. Perhaps though some people might try something with someone of the same sex to see how they like it... but being's that being bisexual/gay/lesbian is in your brain from birth, I don't see how you can truly have a different sexual preference. I think it would be more of an act. But everyone is different, so you never know... it probably also depends on how they got hurt and such. I hope that you aren't getting hurt by your bf/gf, because it's awful. Anyone who is, get out of the relationship, you deserve better!

Yes.
My aunt was married for several years, and was heartbroken when her husband would abuse her time after time. Once she finally got out of the relationship and divorced she met a wonderful woman whom is her lover that she's living happily with
I guess that once someone hurts you enough, you can't stand the fact that that could happen again, so you turn to someone who's a lot like you. Like a female.
Females are less likely to emotionally or physically hurt someone in a relationship.
I'm sure it depends on the situation and what not, but as in this case, it's fully possible.

You certainly can try most anything you like as long as it is legal. But I don't think that being hurt by the opposite sex can make you change your sexual predilections. Being hurt is part of growing up (no matter how old you are now). Do your best to learn for your mistakes and choose better potential partners, straight or bi.

NO NO NO. It will make you gun shy towards the opposite sex but you won't become a homosexual. Or as my friends call it, Embracing the Dark Side of the force. I've been hurt a lot but I still step back up to the plate and take my swing still. Sorry it's a baseball analogy. Sometimes when a player gets hit by a pitch he's afraid of batting again.

Perhaps for some people, yes---but that's a despicable reason to "turn". Some people say they're born homosexual but pain is found in any relationship. The heartbreak can potentially recur.

No, because if doesnt matter what your sexual preference you are bound to get hurt regardless....stop trying to use that a s comp to be gay etc

I believe anything is possible. I don't know what you mean by hurt, physically or emotionally but if you are hurt enough times it teaches you not to try again.

No. you're what you're, and there is no longer something you or somebody else can do to regulate that. human beings in ordinary words pop out later in existence because they have denied or suppressed part of themselves.
