You yourself would know more than any one else what you are inside. If you are not feeling overwhelmingly homosexual, and you have not acted out any homosexual behavior, then who is anyone else to say? A lot of people do not date until much later into their twenties, and it is not because they are confused about their sexual preference or gender identity. Shyness, lower levels or hormones, having lots of other interests, being busy with other priorities and other factors can delay dating. Sometimes the homosexual guy who is in denial of his sexuality will be the one trying too hard and dating all the girls and acting the most macho. If you are comfortable with yourself and happy then that is really all that matters. People say stupid stuff and everyone has an opinon. Learn to filter out the stupid stuff and not take every opinion personally. Sometimes people blame or accuse others of what they themselves fear about themselves. You should continue to do only what feels natural to you at the right time for you, period.

excellent answer it was just what i was looking for thanks so much :D .D

"Being heard is so close to being loved that for the average person they are almost indistinguishable. To say something you value deeply to another and to have him or her value it equally by listening to it carefully and apppreciatively is the most universal way of exchanging social interest or demonstrating affection." David Augsburger, CARING ENOUGH TO HEAR AND BE HEARD.


All sincere persons will be given thoughtful examination and reply. Please be specific about your situation as it applies to your question, the applicable information and facts necessary for me to properly assess your situation and give you the benefit of my knowledge and experience, which includes: experience/education with mentoring, relationship study, self help, spirituality, poetry, literature, philosophy, psychology, color theory, teaching, parenting, and debate that will be used to your advantage. I am concerned with offering an objective and realistic perspective more than ratings, because this will help YOU. Artificial sweetness is found in diet soda, not in my advice. If you feel that I did not understand your question or need more specifics to help, please let me know, but while all truth is subjective, questioners should be mature enough to hear answers not necessarily agreed with. If you are only looking for someone to tell you just what you want to hear, then you may not be ready for my advice. I believe in personal responsibility, self and other awareness and your power and ability to recreate and redirect your own life. All our misery and joy begins and ends within ourselves, but our willingness to be open can bring the positive or negative energy we seek. If you or someone you know is open to positive help, the resources and caring individuals needed are available now.

All our motivations stem from two: Love or Fear. When in turmoil or indecision, ask yourself from which of these you are acting. If you want an honest response outside of yourself, you need to first be honest within yourself. Bless you on your journey!
