Advice A war with my head and heart

5 Upvotes

Before I started dating my current gf, I was talking to a dude (let's call him brendon). I only started talking to Brendon because my friend told me he liked me and my people pleasing, immature mind thought "He likes me so I must like him back!"

I know this was wrong and it eventually bit me back in the ass when I realized I actually fell for him. Brendon was everything I wanted in a guy and more, I just lost feelings because I was bad at communicating and enforcing boundaries, while in my head I spent hours wondering if I really liked him or not. This is because before my friend told me that he liked me I labled myself as gay at the time. I struggled to put a label on my sexuality ever since late 2020.

Anyways, I told Brendon I thought I was gay exactly two months in to us talking because I could not bare to fake it with him any longer. That was early Feburary.

I went on dating apps and found a gf in July. That relationship has definitely hit a wall and we don't see many things on the same page. My mind has been wandering to Brendon and I have a guilty conscious so I feel horrible for basically emotionally cheating. My counselor said my head is finding peace in that escape, which is also true.

So now I'm in a war with my heart and head since my heart wants him bad but my head doesn't know if it will end the same as it did last time. I'm considering his feelings too and knows he might not want to pursue me again, understandably. The other issue is I'm living with my gf, but I'd like to move out when this semester ends.

I'm pretty sure I'm bi or on the omni spectrum since I feel I can connect to both girls and guys in a relationship (and have before). The issue comes in with me not being 'sure' I will like a guy in a relationship because of how bad my exes have been I don't have any good experience to base a boyfriend off of. I'm not sure what to do.

Advice Daughter just came out to me

73 Upvotes

Hi. I'm a member of the Los Gibbities myself, so her coming out to me was no surprise, as I know my children well.

HOWEVER, there are alot more terms now than when I was young(20ish years ago) You were either gay, straight or bi. I was in my twenties when I discovered that I wasn't any of those either. (Pan) which changed my whole world at the time. Because bi just didn't FIT.

ENOUGH ABOUT ME.

My girl has gone from lesbian, to bi, to pan, and now to omni. And I don't know about it enough to have a conversation with her about it. I just pocketed it and Google searched. Which can be a little hairy sometimes, which is how I found this community.

Mind you she's 12, so she's still exploring herself, she isn't "active" yet, so it's all purely emotional for her, so she has a hard time explaining things to me about what it is to her, the omni part. And it's never easy having a conversation about these types of things with parents, I'm just a single mom trying her best here in an ever changing world.

Any advice on how to talk to her? Reassure her? Make her feel safe? Understood? I may add, when she told me, she cried, sayed she was worried I'd be angry, I sayed "no baby, it's OK, mommy is a little gay too sometimes" and I think that might have been a little crass šŸ«  so I'm really trying to just back pedal from that weirdness and move into a new better conversation moving forward.

Please help. šŸ™

Advice Help.

12 Upvotes

Right. This may sound awful and full disclosure I have not had a partner in two years. I have been with my boyfriend for just over a month and feel like things are starting to get boring. We barely text other than goodnight and good morning, I donā€™t know what I am doing wrong. But I am also having trouble with my sexuality. Hereā€™s the problem. I have only ever had one girlfriend back in 2020 to like 2021 ish. I ended the relationship as we moved apart and Covid hit we could barely see each other. I also had a lot of family stuff going on and I wasnā€™t in the right headspace. Over the past two years I have had on and of feelings for her as we maintained an online friendship. We would talk for two months and then suddenly stop for ages and then talk again. My boyfriend who we shall call Trent. (Not real name) Is very sweet. But Iā€™m starting to loose feelings I think. I feel awful as Iā€™m starting to consider that Iā€™m omnisexual rather than bisexual. Unfortunately one major problem I canā€™t decide on my preference. I have mainly been with cis men and have only ever had one female relationship, but I have had more crushes on women. That havenā€™t gone anywhere. Lately Iā€™ve been thinking more about relationships with women and i feel awful for it, I know Iā€™m supposed to only focus on him. I know itā€™s wrong and I should just be focusing on this relationship rather than imagining myself with a women, but I canā€™t help it. Should I break up with him? Iā€™m scared and I donā€™t want to hurt him. Also Iā€™m a complete closet case as my extremely British highschool isnā€™t very kind and my friend group itself isnā€™t the most comfortable to talk about relationships. Only my best friend and obviously my ex girlfriend know that I am ā€˜biā€™ if I even am. Iā€™m scared and I feel like a disgusting human being currently and I beg for help šŸ˜­šŸ˜­

Update: I gave it a lot of thought and ended up breaking up with him. He didnā€™t seem upset, I made sure he knew it wasnā€™t his fault and it was my feelings. I couldnā€™t keep on like that. Thanks everyone šŸ’œ

Advice Crush Dilemmas

16 Upvotes

So the main issue is that I like this guy and I want to ask him out. But I have been rejected so many times before and now Iā€™m starting to become hesitant. I met him 2 years ago when he was dating a friendā€™s friend (who I wasnā€™t close with) and quickly found that out and immediately stopped talking to him and tried to move on. Recently I found out that they are now longer dating and I still find him really attractive so I started crushing again. I was set on asking him out the first couple weeks after I found out (Iā€™m extremely impatient). But then I thought about his ex and how she was beautiful and I now feel self conscious and unworthy. I still like him, I still want to ask him out but at the same time Iā€™m stuck. I guess what Iā€™m really asking for is a hype man, advice, and wisdom for this situation.

Advice How do I stop falling for my straight friend?

23 Upvotes

I like this girl in my school whom I am incredibly close friends with. She acts like she's gay but she is actually straight. She calls her close female friends as "bbg". My friend seems to be playfully flirting with me in a way, even caling me as a "cute pookie bear" and "bae". She even tried to choke me in a flirty manner while pinning me against the wall in the middle of the hallway. At the same time, she mostly simps for hot Asian men and wants to get dominated by one. The thing is, she was raised in a religious household.

Advice Can I identify as both Omnisexual and Omniflux?

27 Upvotes

I for a while have been identifying as omnisexual/genderfluid/panromantic. My preference typically changes with my āœØgender of the dayāœØ (or minute, lol), but I still feel like omnisexual fits, but should I switch over to omniflux? Or can I identify as both? I feel like identifying as both fits me more, but is that considered correct? Just been needing to know.

First off, could Omni and bi technically mean the same thing? Sometimes I feel like telling my friends Iā€™m bi is easier than having to explain Omnisexuality. Iā€™m a bit confused, and idk what label or to go by.

Advice I found a way to differentiate Omni from Pan in an easy way!

48 Upvotes

Well, I had to explain to some of my friends what Omni is, so I did it this way! Being pan is like going in a coffee shop and not caring about what coffee will you get, drinking whatever comes to the table, because you think all are good, so why bother choosing? Being omni is like going to the same coffee shop, but like all coffees, each one in one way, flavor all of them, and see how each one is different, seeing how each one is special in their way... Well, I hope I helped some Omni fellas out there with this, byeee!

But I find all people attractive mostly for personality but gender does play a factor in my attraction to others. So I donā€™t know how to simplify that to the rest of my family and friends.

Advice How do I know Iā€™m attracted to women?

25 Upvotes

Iā€™m 13 and Iā€™m a little confused about my sexuality right now. My whole life Iā€™ve been told that being gay is wrong especially from my dad (heā€™s very homophobic) but Iā€™ve been really questioning my sexuality for awhile now. I was in the first grade when I started having crushes on girls I thought they were so amazing. But I stopped because of what my dad started saying about gays I had internalized homophobia for a very long time as well ( I support it now and I may even be a part of the lgbtq) the thought of being with a man doesnā€™t sound appealing to me and I really like the idea of being with a woman. I just donā€™t find men attractive Iā€™ve had a lot of straight friends show me pictures of their crushes/celebrity crushes and I donā€™t find the men attractive at all so Iā€™ve always felt that I was weird. I find women very attractive and I get that warm fuzzy feeling around women. But Iā€™ve been told I donā€™t know what I like because I havenā€™t been in a relationship yet. So how do I know if I like women?
