Attraction

[Unregistered]

When I was in middle school I thought I was going to be gay because I was first sexually attracted to guys. I never came out and probably never will. In high school I dated girls and found out I had no real interest to date guys. I always try to plan out my future in every aspect of my life and I just don't know will happen. I will never marry a guy but I don't know if I will be sexually attracted to a girl even if married.

Is it possible to be sexually attracted to one gender and romantically attracted to the other?

In short, yes it is possible to be sexually attracted to one gender and romantically attracted to the other. We all have different preferences. It often takes time to develop our sexual identity and we all question it at some point. It sounds like you are just trying to sort out all of your feelings. Perhaps it would be helpful to take a step back and not focus on marriage or anything long-term. That may add some additional pressure or frustration. Take your time in sorting all of this out. We all need time to figure out what we like and don't like in sexual partners and relationships. Perhaps it would be helpful to talk to a close friend about this or someone that you trust.
