Heya bud... all you have to do to get the real answer to this question is to just look at the answer given by Afsah F.... all gay people.. at some point want to not be gay for whatever reason... usually being religious or for fear of rejection... but do know this.. if you know you are gay "which it does sound like you do from your question" then know that "your" God, whichever it may be... loves you whether gay or straight.... and however much you try to change it... if you are gay... you will never be straight. Try to embrace ur life rather than reject it.... if the most important person in ur life rejects you because you're gay... they really may not be the most important person in ur life after all. I really believe at some point that all gay people get sick of being gay... but we all eventaully understand that it's not something that we can change and just start living our lives as everyone does. I wish you the best in your life and hope all goes well. :)

I see the general consensus amongst gay people is that once gay, always gay. You must resign yourself to your "fate", and accept that change is impossible.

What they are REALLY saying is that you have no free will, you are essentially powerless over your own thoughts, feelings, and actions. I beg to differ!

You sound sincere. That's a good start! Like beating any kind of addiction, the key is having the determination to overcome it. Please seek support from sources outside the "gay community". Gay men will only tell you that you want to "live a lie", and it will NEVER work! It would be like someone trying to quit drinking hanging out at the bar each night while all his buddys get drunk! You must find people who will encourage you to stay strong in making a transition. I'm not saying gay people are "bad" or anything, but if there is something about "the lifestyle" that doesn't quite sit right with you, do everything in your power to get out now, while you still can!

I truly wish you all the best luck in the world -
YOU CAN DO IT!!!!

I am a 13 years old gay and want to be like any normal guys going out with their dates openly but i cant.You just have to accept the fate that you are in.There is no changing unless you want to go have sexes change and marry a guy(although u cant have babies).

Short answer: if you're gay, you're gay. You can repress your feelings and pretend otherwise, but you'll never really be straight. A looooot of people come out in their 40s because they decided that they would ignore it and try to be "normal" anyway, but they eventually decide that they can't take it any more. And they usually tear their family apart doing it. It's unfortunate all around.

Hi, I think you should try dating a women and see how you like it live for her needs only and then you will decide weather or not you like it. But dont get married or have kids, my best friend found out his dad was gay. (he came home one day and saw his dad ******* the gardener) it was a huge train smash the boy ened up killing himself and the father shot himself after that as well it was really sad

You were born straight or gay, and that cannot be changed.

You can probably choose to ignore your sexual orientation -- I would question how happy someone really is when they are trying to force themselves to live in a situation where they ignore their own reality.

Many people have lived as heterosexuals only to come out later in life because they could no longer pretend. If you can lie to yourself and live with the lies, then yes you can PRETEND to be heterosexual.

you may exchange your habit, yet you may't exchange your maximum uncomplicated needs. A gay man or woman can % an entire life of celibacy, yet desire is persistent. you may ask your self: Why could I fairly be with a woman than a guy? Or, Why does it make me ill to think of of being with a guy? Your solutions to those questions will exhibit lots to you. in the adventure that your answer has to do with some thing which you have been taught (for occasion, it fairly is "precise" or "usual" to be with lady, or it fairly is "incorrect" or "ill" to be with a guy) then the difficulty has little to do which contain your sexuality and extra to do with the way you navigate interior the exterior international. We adventure our sexuality in an incredible style of diverse techniques. What we fantasize is one way, what stimulates us visually is yet another, and what we do is yet yet another. they do no longer continuously "adventure". the significant ingredient is that, as you're studying and exploring, you hold your self secure. do no longer do something which you're no longer tender with, and don't enable absolutely everyone inform you what you sense is incorrect.

first of all you have to know certain facts,according to the psychological & psychiatric literatures homosexuality (gayness) is considered one of the 3 normal sexual orientations of humans beside heterosexuality & bisexuality...sexual orientation is neither chosen nor changable...no one choses to be gay & no one can change it,but you can stop acting if you wish i.e. you cannot control your gay feelings (fantacies & attraction) but you can control your gay action (approaching or sex)...a person can have real or false gay feelings so you have to get sure what kind of gay feelings you have & this could be by getting married or involving yourself in heterosexual relations,if your feelings are false then you'll start to forget it & feel progressively satisfied with women..if your feelings are true you will feel not really satisfied with women as you used with men & you'll still be having man-2-man fantacies...at this point you have to face the fact of your gayness is something UNCHANGABLE...But you are not happy with that & you need to be in peace with yourself? right??..ok..the 1st step is to accept your self this way.accept it as that has neither been your choice nor your fault..think you are created like this....Pray to god to help you accept yourself & you can consult psychotherapist bcoz they are capable of making people like us accept it & be in iternal peace...wish you luck

Honey, did you exchange sex with guys for money rather than love it? If you say Yes, you can consider yourself straight because there many straight guys just give their sex to gay guys for different reason...after that, just forget it and enjoy women for what he really needs. If you are not in this case, please adjust your attitude or neither sex want you by their side. I am gay and still want having sex with you but will dump you later baby.

no. You can enter into all kinds of programs..that claim that they can do this for you...but all they do is teach you how to lie to yourself and be unhappy...There is an expose done on one of these 'camps' in either OUT magazine or INSTINCT in the last few months...an interesting read..since all the supposed people in the camp to be reformed were still having sex with each other...
