I'm from India and I live in Oman (it's a Middle-East country). I've liked/loved this girl since 6th grade (I'm in 11th now).
I'm not sure I love her because even though it feels like it, everyone says it's probably not (at my age).
Anyway, first off, I can't ever tell my parents because they're Muslims and I'm not sure they know of the existence of bisexuals. I think I should keep it a secret even though I feel guilty.
I've told a few of my friends and they're okay with it. Or at least they don't dislike ME, just the idea.
I don't have any problems about self-acceptance.
I guess the problem is that whether I love this girl or not, I'm definitely very obsessed with her and it's just not healthy...I think about her all the time. It feels like I'm sick or something. I want it to stop, but at the same time she and I are friends and we're even in the same class, so I've no idea what to do to get over her. I just know I have to because its hindering any possible productivity.
Also, I didn't mention this, she's straight and she'll never care about me. We're only friends because I'm entertaining.

Xui answered Friday February 10 2012, 5:20 pm: Have you ever tried to talk to her? You stated she was straight but have you ever complimented her and see how she reacts? You do not have to come out and tell her that you have feelings for her not knowing how she may react. Sometimes you can easily test people just by complimenting and asking random questions.
If you both are good friends then you should be able to communicate with her and tell her how you feel. Again, You don't have to come off as if you are coming onto her. You could simply say that you've been thinking about your sexuality lately and you are curious to know what it's like to be with a girl and ask if she has any advice. See how she responds
If she doesn't seem to be all for the fact that you like girls then maybe your right, Maybe she just isn't into girls and isn't willing to try. All you can really do then is accept that there is nothing with this girl other then friendship. Becoming obsessed is not healthy and if you over do it you could end up creeping her out and it could ruin your friendship. My advise just talk to her and see how she responds. If she responds in a positives manner then there might be a chance and maybe you could even work up the courage to ask her if she would ever consider being with a girl. Sometimes actions speak louder then words ;) [ Xui's advice column | Ask Xui A Question ]
