Have you ever gone through?

Question

have you ever felt like your whole personality was changing? I'm 15 and I feel like I'm going from the "good girl" to like this edgy tough sexy siren/vixen and all I think about is sex? I used to be deeply religious. Now I won't even crack open the Bible.

Answer 1

At 15, you are beginning your journey into adulthood, as a result, you are testing the boundries of what you have been taught, much as a small child will test whether the fire will really hurt them or not. Getting burned is what is known as "learning the hard way." Doubtless you are discovering that a lot of guys are now getting very interested into feminine attributes and you may have an abundance of these, especially if you dress certain ways.

Part of growing up is moving yourself forward and seeing how comfortable you feel with that "new" you which is really just a growing you. Thinking about sex in the teen years is normal, but you need to be not only aware, but very knowledgeable about sexual contact and the consequences of it (not just pregnancy, but all the STD's. Remember you don't just sleep with your partner, you sleep with everyone your partner has slept with)

And while you may be revolting against what you percieve to be a stifling religion background, you may find that you still want that feeling that you can talk to God whenever and remember that he's always ready to listen. But as you are growing up, you will be expected to not only explore the world, but take Responsibility for your Decisions as you explore. You have a lot of life left and you will go through more changes (which none of us can predict) which will take you through your existance here. Being aware of your potential (physical and how others percieve you) is a good first step. Remember you still have to look at yourself in the morning and if you don't feel good about what you did last night, it probably is not the best thing for you in the long run.

P.S., until you turn 22, your parents and grownups are idiots. After that, you'll realize that they were just trying to give you thier hard earned lessons in thier own way. Try to be understanding, they don't become smart until you reach your 20;s!

Answer 2

You are reacting to the changes in hormones and related developments. The bible has no real instructions as to how you should handle these urges and what the real consequences are, let alone the real pleasures to be found. Like most kids raised by bible thumpers, you have not been adequately prepared for these life changes, so you need to find some sort of mentor, or adviser who will give you a crash course in what is happening and what other practical and non-religious people have done to deal with this stage of growth.
That doesn't mean you can't turn to religion for other examples of how to live, but you certainly won't find any sort of modern sex education in those biblical chapters.

Answer 3

You can be a good person w/o ever cracking open the bible, but that aside, the sex obsession is most likely the result of a little life process called puberty. Surely you started this a few years ago, but as you mature, the balance of hormones in your system is constantly changing. This doesn't make you a bad person. If it gets to the point that you cannot control sexual impulses, this could be something more serious and should seek out medical advice, but otherwise, you're just another average horny teenager. :)

On another note, how is this related to LGBT issues?

Answer 4

Welcome to puberty my friend. I'm 26 and I've experienced that feeling at least 5 times. At 13, at 16, at 18, at 21 and 26. Isn't growing up fun? ;) It's natural to think about sex all the time - especially when its a relatively new interest. And as far as religion goes, we are raised by our families to blindly believe in what our family believes. When we come into our own as we grow up we have the opportunity to slow down and really think about what we have learned and what else we would like to know before commiting to any one idea. It's hard, and stressful, to have things be so different than they were a few years or even nmoths ago, but keep moving forward and keep asking questions and treating yourself and others well and you'll be just fine.

Answer 5

Welcome to being a teenager! I went through an entire personality shift at around the same age, I had no problems finding willing sex partners and don't even get a bible near me because I will do everything to break every possible commandment. The good news is you outgrow it at around 27 then slowly it all turns back around. Just be very careful so you don't get STD's or get pregnant(guys say the double condom thing is a joke...guess what it isn't). Protect yourself do not rely on the guys!

Answer 6

GOD is the Holy Trinity. the father, the Son (Jesus Christ /the Messiah of the international) and the Holy Ghost/Holy Spirit are 3 entities that make up one GOD. In John 14:6, the Bible states that the only thank you to God is thru Jesus Christ. this means which you would be able to no longer bypass against Jesus's teachings in the recent testomony and be anti-Christ and turn around and say which you're a Christian. It would not artwork that way. God the father, is the single in Genesis who created the universe, spoke to Moses and Noah, the father of Jesus Christ, and He despatched down the Holy Ghost to convict the international of sin and inspire human beings to do what's appropriate. with the intention to be a real believer and Christian, then you quite could adhere to the entire Bible. you won't have the ability to no longer stick to the recent testomony, and easily bypass with the previous testomony. Like sensible, you won't have the ability to no longer stick to the previous testomony the place you detect the ten Commandments, the e book of Psalms, Proverbs and Genesis. all the Bible is going together. stable success on your Bible readings.

Answer 7

People change over time. At that age people can do a 180. You're growing up and maturing. The way you look at the world and yourself can change. It's common age for people to "find themselves." As long as you're responsible when it comes to sex, I don't see anything wrong with a strong sex drive.

Answer 8

Answer 9
