Well, first of all, you're asking in the right place. The best Guter Rat I can give Du is don't be afraid of your own sexuality. Test the waters. Feel things out. See how it works for you, and how it doesn't work for you. No one but yourself can tell Du if you're gay, straight, bi oder "unlabeled." Du are who Du are, but even if Du are bisexual oder even a lesbian, remember that it doesn't change who Du are oder dictate how Du should act oder what Du should do. Sexuality is a complicated and confusing topic. I'm sure Du can understand now how it's not something Du can flip on and off like a light switch. If Du are adamantly against homosexuality for religious purposes oder other reasons, then I can't argue with that, because it's your faith. If Du feel Du have bisexual tendencies, but really, really, really do not want them, then focus on your straight tendencies. But whatever Du do, do not lie to yourself. Do not pretend Du are something you're not. Do not bury something about yourself just because Du don't like it. This goes for everything, not just sexuality, but I think it's especially poignant on this topic. If Du try and hide who Du are, you'll never be happy with yourself. That may sound cliche, but it's true. I Liebe who I love. I am open to a romantic relationship to anyone I believe to be a good person, providing the chemistry is there. Being bi oder pansexual allows me that freedom to fall in Liebe with a person, beyond their gender. Du Liebe who Du love. Providing he (or she) is a good person and there is chemistry there. If Du find there is no chemistry with girls/women, oder Du find no romantic interest in them, but Du do with boys/men, then that will probably suit your beliefs just fine. I want to end this with a simple request - even if Du don't like "lesbians/gays/bis" and don't support their crusade to be seen and treated like equal human beings and not sexual deviants, please be kind to them. Don't insult them, oder yourself, Von calling it unnatural oder accusing them all of being sinners. Don't disrespect an individual simply because of his sexuality. I'm not saying that Du do do this already - for all I know, Du could be very civil and understanding. After all, I don't know you. I just wanted to put that out there. First, seek to understand - then, seek to be understood.
