Sometimes, your intuition (your gut/your higher self/maybe your guardian angels) will tell you loud and clear that a situation is not right. When you get these signals, you feel them in your body -- a "gross" feeling, or a feeling of anxiety or fear, or you may just "know" that you have to stop whatever it is that you're doing. It's your gut's way of giving you a sign that you need to stop what you're doing and check in with yourself to find out what's wrong.
I am *so* glad to hear that you honored yourself and stopped making out with this guy!
Even though everything seemed perfect, clearly, everything *wasn't* perfect. But don't worry -- it may be someday. :)
As far as being gay, only you know whether or not you are attracted to members of the same gender. Or maybe you like both! Now is a time for patience, observation, experimentation, and fun. Don't judge yourself. Don't try to put yourself in a stereotype. Just see who you are and what you like. You'll figure it out! [ angelgalwendy's advice column | Ask angelgalwendy A Question ]

I was turned on, it didn't feel awesome, I had literally no emotion towards it and I just wanted to pry my lips off of the guy.
BUT given I am bisexual, that might play a factor as I enjoy kissing girls more. You might be gay, or bi, but don't just jump to the conclusion because of one makeout sesh. [ theadvicegal's advice column | Ask theadvicegal A Question ]

I know how you feel, the first time you do these things you might feel a little uncomfortable doing them but they take time to get used to. I dont think you have anything to worrya bout. You dont have to think you're gay either because regardless who you made out with, you would have felt a little uncomfortable. The same thing happened to me too, as you become more comfortable with the guy it gets easier. :) [ Teen2TeenHelp's advice column | Ask Teen2TeenHelp A Question ]
