[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I definitely do not think being gay is a phase. I don’t think it’s a lifestyle choice at all.

That said, I think sometimes people, especially teens/young adults, go through phases where they think they are gay or bi. Girls get a “girl crush” or guys get a “ guy crush” and think that means they’re gay/bi. I am straight but have definitely had girl crushes.

I know a woman who came out to her entire family many years ago. They supported her and she began dating women. She quickly figured out that she is not actually gay at all. She has been happily married to a man for about 20 years. [/quote]

So being gay was a phase for her. [/quote]

For her, yes. Sorta. Not because it was trendy (it wasn’t at the time) or because she was rebelling against her religious parents. She went through a phase where she thought she was gay because there were women she felt attracted to. I don’t think shecrealized it’s normal for straight people to be attracted to people of the same sex. I think her situation is rare, but not unheard of.

I know it seems like I’m contradicting myself. I’m just saying that I truly believe being gay is not a phase or a choice. But occasionally it can actually turn out to be a phase of confusion or experimenting.

It happens in all aspects of life, not just sexuality. People think they know who they are or what they want and then they realize they were wrong. My SIL decided that she was buddhist. After awhile, she decided she wasnt. This didn’t discredit every actual Buddhist. And there was nothing wrong with that fact that she thought she identified with it and tried to embrace it, but then realized it was not really her. [/quote]
