Skinny 18 year old..
Feel really confused about myself . I have been constantly thinking about myself being gay for about a year. Just going back and forth and stressing out, just kind of trying to not think about it.
Never really noticed guys sexually or romantically until last year either, never even think of spending my life with a woman, don't really like how I'm thinking.
Feel incredibly insecure about the way I am in general too, always feeling submissive.
Predominantly looked at gay porn, although I felt really guilty about that so I stopped watching porn.
I feel like I might be gay and I just need to accept it but I am too scared of the social consequences of it.
Not even in a religious family but I don't want to only be known in the back of people's minds as the son/cousin/friend who isn't a real man and gets used by men.
Be real, whats up with me?

You just need to come outta the closet.
Stop being so self-conscious. People won't give too many fucks unless you're being obnoxious about wanting a cock up your ass.
It would have been a huge problem about 50 years ago, nowadays it's been normalized.
Use Grindr to indulge into your degenerancy.

:l maybe..
A lot of gay people only come out for the sake of commodity. Unless you want to dress like a woman to go out on the streets, force your voice to that annoying high pitch and grow and groom your hair, getting fucked in the ass won't automatically expose you as gay.
Give it a try, go out with a guy, nobody has to know
go on a date with a guy.
you don't have to get fucked in the ass in the same night, just spend a nice relaxing evening with a good looking guy. engage in pleasant conversation over dinner at a nice place. feel it out (not literally obviously)
I'd be hesitant on bringing up that you're confused though, might give the guy the wrong message or might make him feel like he's wasting his time.
if you're nervous about being ridiculed my your community, than look for a date outside your town.
like >>17879403 said, give it a shot. nobody has to know.

hey man, it sucks that socially gays are still where they're at. exploring your sexuality should be a fun part of becoming a man, but unfortuatnely most people are too afraid of how others will react.
i came out in 8th grade and even in the most accepting of communities, its a shit show. so recently after moving and starting new jobs i just went back in the closet. it started as me thinking id come out after they got to know me and two years in i still hadnt told any of my friends or co workers or anyone really.
the only one who knows is one of my friends and he only knows cuz the way we met was me asking him out on a date. hes straight but we managed to become bros somehow.
consider exploring your sexuality in private and instead of coming out, just live your life as if it doesn't need to be said. yuo dont need anyone to know until you know for sure. not even about your sexuality btw, they dont need to know until you found someone worth introducing other people to.
no one needs to know your gay unless they're going to be seeing you with your boyfriend a LOT.
