I think I’m a lesbian but I have a boyfriend
I’ve always identified as bisexual, well, not always, but for a good amount of time. I started dating my boyfriend in September, but I’ve never really been physically attracted to him.
Don’t get me wrong , he’s a lovely man, and he makes me happy, but I don’t think i love him the way I should.. I only said yes to being his girlfriend because I was scared of making him upset.
I don’t really know what to do. I don’t want to break up with him, because we are close, and we have a lot in common, but I feel like if he was a woman I would love him romantically , and I don’t really now.
I’ve know for a while I’ve found women more attractive than men, I can’t deny that. But I think getting into my first relationship with a man has made me realise I don’t actually find men attractive at all. And it’s not like my dad doesn’t support lgbtq, he’s surprisingly supportive for a 54 year old, but I’m more so scared of how my boyfriend and other family will react. I’m not exactly the most attractive person ever either, so I’m afraid that if I break up with my boyfriend I won’t have a chance with anyone else.
Not to mention the school I attend is very chavvy, and I’ve already been accused of being a ‘**’ before (which I suppose now is not very wrong..) but I’d rather not be known as one and get bullied more than I already do..
I’m scared. I don’t want to be alone again.
Does he know you have interests in women? Maybe he should. Many men enjoy their women sexually involved with other people.
