When I wanna go out w/ someone, or even if I just have a small crush on someone, I feel weird and gross. Could it be because I'm looking at my parents' example? I've never seen them kiss or do anything subtly romantic. I'm also really uncomfortable whenever sexual topics are brought up in conversations with my parents or on tv when they are in the room. How can I get over this (w/out counseling - costs $, which my parents would be against)? thanks!

You age does have a bearing on how you deal with those feelings, but you should be uncomfortable when in appropriate sexual subjects come up in mixed company.
It is a shame that your parents do not demonstrate affection for each other.
I have a feeling that you don't need counseling, but just a few more years to mature a little more.
Love starts out more physical and sexual, but it matures or should, just like we mature. Try to not be embarrassed about those weird feelings, just do NOT give in to them until you KNOW that you are ready. Nothing can be lost by waiting, but there is much to lose!

Just relax. Don't force this. Knowing what your problem is is a big step towards solving it. Share the knowledge of you being uncomfortable about sex talk with you mother. (I take you to be a girl)
You don't have to go into great detail. Just some general things.
How you feel about your self. You are at a stage in life where you are be coming aware of your sexuality.
If it goes well then the next time you can get into more details.

I'm the same way.
It sounds like you're a teenager. I am too. You're at the weird point where sex is no longer this theoretical thing in the back of your mind like it was when your parents explained how boys use the toilet. But you haven't reached the point where it's something you do. You're starting to realize that it's something actual people actually do, and face it, it's gross.
All I can say is try to avoid those situations and wait it out. It sucks but in the end it's probably better for you.

That's too bad, because it's fun.
