So for context, I'm a 16y old. I live a typically normal life and I'm an only child. I've had a couple crushes and even had a couple relationships but they all ended pretty quickly whether it was just me finding out I wasn't as interested as I thought as was or the girl being a total jerk. Either way, I thought I was done with relationships (at least till I turned an adult) until I was slowly starting to think more about relationships with the same sex...
The signs were there when I was around 13-14y old. I would find myself thinking more about boys and might have even had a crush on one. I kinda ignored it at first but over the next 2 years up to now the feeling would get stronger. I started doing homeschool last year so one of my friends suggested that it could be the lack of social interaction with girls which is tbh a good point but like I said even when I was in middleschool (did this publicly), I found myself having gay thoughts.
I don't think I'm 100% gay but I know I'm definitely not zero 😂. Anyways, I'm not sure how I feel about this whether it's right or wrong. I'm also Christian and if any of you are Christian, you would know that in the Bible it says that God doesn't want any man to be with another man but at the same time how can I help it? It's not like I chose to be this way it's just what I'm attracted to. And I'm sorry if I'm being delusional here but technically did God make you what you are? You are his single greatest creation and everything you do or say, every step you take, and how you look ilwas all his plan. So technically wouldn't that mean you would be gay because he had that in mind? And if so why would he be against it?
Besides that, I'm finding it hard to confess this to my family because they're Christian and they're not particularly supportive of homosexuality but they don't speak their opinions out loud to be respectful. They also don't necessarily keep secrets so if I were to tell any one of them I already they would've told the whole family about it. Especially my mom and dad because they always lie to bring up private things about me to the whole family which annoys me a lot. Sorry for the rant but do you guys have any advice on what I should do and how I should feel about it?
