Too Good to be True

I met this guy off the internet, I know that sounds bad already. He's 6 and a half years older than me. That sounds even worse. I met him in September of 2005. We talked for months. I started having feelings for him. In February of 2006, I finally told him. He said he liked me back. I thought it was too good to be true. In May he got a "girlfriend." We both went to Fan Fair in Nashville, TN back in June of 2006. I met him in person then. We were closer than ever. My feelings for him only grew stronger. By January of 2007 we made plans to meet up in Seattle, since he is moving up there for college, and I live three hours away. We met up and had a great time. He was playing footsies with me under the table and hugging me all the time. It was sweet. After we got back and we went back to talking on the internet... I told him again that I liked him a lot. That I was in love with him. He finally came out after a year and a half of me knowing him that he's gay. He said he was in love with me though, and that he believes it was nothing less than meant to be that we met. Is it weird to be in love with a gay man? I think he might actually be bisexual. I am too scared to ask him though. He has a boyfriend... who was actually his "girlfriend" that he told me about in May. He is a huge Christian, which I don't see how since being homosexual is a sin, and he is going to a Christian college and talked about people saying God transformed them. They weren't gay anymore. Do you think that's possible?

So pretty much, my questions are:

Is it weird to be in love with a gay man?
Do you think he's bisexual?
Do you think God can transform homosexuals into straight people?

:/
I really do love him though.
Do you think it's normal?

I hate people like you. Being gay is not a sin

Sleeping with another man is, but liking other men isnt.

Also, he is to old for you,and ur probably 12, right? Find urself a boyfriend, he was being nice, uc ant love him, u havnt experienced life yet
All good questions which can be answered. No, it is not so weird to be in love with a gay man. When you fell in love with him, you had no idea he was gay. I honestly have no idea if he is bisexual, that is something that can't really be determined by a third party. And sure God could transform homos into straight people, he's God, but he doesn't. Why would he? God lets people live in their sin. That's why he gave people free will. People make their own decisions. And once and for all, because I am tired of people saying it. Human beings are not born gay. There is no gay gene. People choose to be homosexual. It is a choice.
Actually, I'm 16, thanks.
I know being gay is not a sin, but it says so in the bible. I find nothing wrong with being homosexual.
I do not believe it's a choice. I think they aren't technically born gay. You're right, there is no gay gene, but I don't think they necessarily choose to be gay. This man would not choose to be gay. He is just attracted to the same gender. It's a complicated subject.
Thank you for your thoughts on it.
I can't remember who posted this link originally (might have been Cab???) anyhow it may help...or it may just be funny as hell!

If gay men can be turned by God they turn into this anyway so it won't help you I'm afraid.
I should have mentioned he's a 'reformed' homosexual and a preacher.
what the hell?? being gay is not a choice! do you really think people would put themselves through hell by other people dissing how they are gay. no so therefor it is not a choice! how do i know?? because i know alot of gay men and woman and they definatly did not have a choice being gay or lez! if they did have a choice, my mate would not have comitted suicide because he was gay!
That was completely stupid. That was the lamest video I have ever watched. God doesn't hate anyone. Even if they are sinning in every way possible. Gah, and I hate people like that.
1st question: Yes it is normal because you didn't know he was gay when you "loved" him. Well I guess it doesn't matter if he was gay or not you could still love hime.

2nd one: He may be bisexual. He obviously cared enough for you prior so it could be a possibility.

3rd: Don't believe in god so i don't know. I don't think he can transform, not sure. Ask god yourself :)
whoa, calm down there cheech. It really comes down to personal opinion and one's religious beliefs. When I say "choose" I don't mean they really consciencely say, "hey, I am going to be attracted to men," but it is something that they could fight off and control if they wanted but choose instead to sin. I do not think people are born gay because God would not allow people to born sinning without them having a choice in the matter. And before anyone says it, when I say "born sinning" I am excluding original sin of course.
by cheech I meant trouble666. And I notice the sign of lucifer in your name, nice.
"that they could fight off and control if they wanted but choose instead to sin" - Using that logic do you really think you could fight off your straightness and be sexually attracted to men?
Eating shellfish, wearing clothing woven from 2 different kinds of fibers, and laying with a menstruating woman are all sins too, according to the Bible. For what that's worth.
the one thing i hate more than patronising christians is FUCKING FUNDAMENTALISTS!!

primitive if you ask me
first of all there is no god, maybe they might drill it into his head that hes straight tho
Is it weird to be in love with a gay man?

Not at all, you love who you love.

Do you think he's bisexual?

Honestly no, I don't think he is. If he was bisexual then he would have asked you out or have made some obvious indication - since he said he liked you.

Do you think God can transform homosexuals into straight people?

I KNOW they can't. They may be able to persuade someone to keep their feelings hidden away, by making them feel as though their feelings are in someway shameful, but the desires and feelings remain. As I said before, you love who you love.

Stay friends with him, if he is bisexual then you'll know about it eventually and then maybe you can make a move. Carry on with life and enjoy having a friend who cares so much about you. :-)
I believe that people are born gay or straight, or bi and that they honestly cannot help their orientation. There's a great South Park episode that deals with this topic. http://www.afterelton.com/blog/dennis/south-parks-ex-gay-episode

IMHO, it's between them and God if they believe in God.

All in all though, you would be boyfriend has a lot of issues that he needs to deal with. I'd suggest moving on. You're too young to get bogged down with that kind of stuff. There will be other guys for you...

Good Luck!
