Lately i have been doing some thinking, asking myself such question as why does a girls body turn me on, its like im questioning sexuality as a whole. But the more i do that the less attracted i seem to be to a girls body. I came her for a little help. Is there anyway i can avoid these "questioning sexuality" thoughts. I feel like im losing attraction for girls which i don't want. And i feel like im losing my grasp on reality. I could really use some advice, now everytime i see a girl i feel a bit of anxiety. School is starting up soon and i don't want this to affect me liking girls. Is there anything i can do to help myself???

I'm assuming you are male?

You can't help what you're attracted to. Some people like blondes, some people like brunettes, some like men, some like women.. there's nothing wrong with any of it. I don't think you can change what you are attracted to. You can force a relationship with someone you're not attracted to, but what's the point in that? You say you're losing attraction for women, but are you becoming attracted to men? It's complicated, but I don't know how you can "help yourself" because I don't think sexuality is something you can force a change with. I don't know if that's what you wanted to hear, but I don't know what else to say on the subject really.. sorry.

I think its totally normal for us to question our sexuality at some point in our lives, especially when we're young. When we're young, we still don't quite know who we are yet....we're learning all that. In the teen years, we start to develop minds and lives of our own, we start "branching out" maybe from what we were taught from our parents. We develop new ideas about feelings and we develop our own opinions.

I think thats why they call it teenaged angst. Its a tough time when we start questioning everything, but that is all part of the growing and learning process.

Much easier said than done, but try just letting it go and see what happens....the more we over analyze anything, the more it can seem overwhelming. At least thats how it is for me.
