So I just had a rather breakthrough therapy session that's making me really question my sexual orientation. So far as I've always thought, I've been straight. I'm a guy currently married to a straight woman. I realized I have deep romantic feelings for a male friend of mine. But here's the thing, I've never felt this way about other guys. I've never looked at guys the same way I've looked at girls. Never felt the desire to watch gay porn. I had an opportunity to hook up with a guy once when I had a threesome with him and his girlfriend, but didn't want to. Yet when my friend came to visit recently, I felt a deep romantic, and even physical, attraction to him. Is it possible to be gay just for a single person?

Idk why but it wasn't easy for me to write this up. But figure I should start trying to figure this stuff out. I'm feeling really confused right now and could use some insight from my LGBTQ comrades.

    I agree with this a lot, fuck labels. At a certain point they stop being useful tools for communication and start becoming things we limit ourselves with, boxes we stuff ourselves inside of which limit our conception of ourselves and what we want. Its why I say I'm pan, feels the least restrictive

    I feel the same way about tendency labels, I want a better world and to destroy capitalism, and I'm looking to everywhere I can to learn and obtain the tools I need to assist in getting there.
