OK, this all started on Wednesday when someone said "are you gay?" at school (I'm 15). I said "no". But that made me think...and now that's all I think about from the minute I wake up to the moment I go to bed...it's awful! This is really hard for me, but I can find men nice to look at and stuff, and sometimes visualize them in my mind. But I have never had feelings for one. I also find women very attractive and hot, and visualize them too, and I have had feelings for a few too (and right now I am in love with this one celebrity). So I don't know what's going on...am I just curious or what? And like I said it's all I think about morning and night, I make myself sick over it.

You may ask why I think it's such a big deal...it's because my family is Christian, and I have a huge fear of being rejected. My fear of rejection is not just about this issue, but also for everything. And for some reason I just don't want to be gay. And since I am so worried all the time and depressed I have very little sexual interest right now.

there are plenty of support groups that you can go to or you could talk to your school counselor. i'm sorry that you are so conflicted. at your age there may just be so many raging hormones, maybe you're bisexual. i am a straight female but i do have quite a few gay men as friends and some of them are actually christians and their families have come to accept that they are gay. they don't necessarily embrace it but they haven't shunned the person from the family. you never really know how they'll react but just know that good friends will stick by you thru it all. definitely seek out an online support group if you don't have someone you can talk to.
good luck.

STOP! you do not need to worry, this is quite normal honestly,
my 15yr old gets called gay all the time and he is SO NOT, you mustn't worry love your hormones are going through the roof right now and the pressure of a 'christian' family will make you feel worse, but Ryan dont start stressing becaude it will seem alot worse then it is! trust me

And you did not ask what made the other person ask you if you are gay?
Why are you so unsure about the answer you gave?
If you have an interest for your opposite sex, you are not gay.

When you see a throbbing hard on, does it make your mouth water? If so you are indeed gay, but in your case you sound more bi-sexual then anything, which basically means you have more choices for dates on a Friday night.
