I am in need of a listener and advice ❤️

I have been through a lot but I’m remaining positive about it.Becoming a listener here first triggered a lot inside of me.I’m struggling with sexual identity,if someone has experience or is strictly straight,I need your advice to stop having same-sex desires.I know my situation requires a therapist,psychologist or whatever else,but i’m not able financially to start that journey.I wish you all positivity and healing,and thank you to everyone for being so kind!

As a straight guy, I want to say that even if you have these same-sex desires, you shouldn't hide from them. If people around you make you feel unsafe to express then it can be hard but there is always someone willing to help and be accepting. You may not be able to get rid of those desires, as they exist because it is what you desire deep down. There is always acceptance somewhere, just make sure it is also the right kind. You'll find your path

@EMPulse it is easy for others to say,but living like i do is helll. I’m in a communist and islamic country. For my safety and my life,i need to control my feelings. I’m happy for anyone who is happy with same-sex relationships,but sadly that can’t be me.

@straightforwardEyes3336 There is nothing wrong with having same-sex desires and you shouldn’t feel ashamed of yourself no matter what people say. It is perfectly natural to experience things like this, I wish you luck with your journey with self-acceptance and expression.

@hk82831 i have failed to express the reasons why i need to. It’s my country,my family, my reality. I’m happy for others who are in relationships,truly. I’m not judging anyone besides myself. For my safety i need to control this. Thank you for the words!
