Irrelevant Realization

[dinonum]

So I feel like this is probably irrelevant, but, I think I'm bisexual. I've thought this since I was about eleven, and no, it wasn't the cool thing when I was in school either. I discussed this with my husband yesterday, and he seemed to be understanding, calm, cool, collected, and didn't think much of it. Maybe because I've spent my whole life around people who are horrible and mean about I'm feeling this way, but I'm depressed...

Like I said, it pretty irrelevant to my life and lifestyle (i.e. married, not cheating, or in open relationship) but it's just I guess, I revelation of sorts that my thoughts are based in a sinful place. It's rough.

I wasn't sure where to post this though, but I figured this was a good a place as any.

This is not irrelevant because you see yourself as being in a sinful situation. It is not sin to be tempted. God loves you just as you are. Remember, He created you and He is not surprised by anything you have to tell Him.

You are a beloved child of God.

Praying for you!

Hey there!
I am not experienced in problems like this. But, maybe you should visit doctor or something like this? I am sure 100% that it can be treated. I mean, maybe psychologist will help you to find right path? Maybe its connected to the events which took place in your childhood? Something sub-conscious?
Praying for you! God Bless You!

dinonum,

I am glad to hear this!

Do not let those in the other thread discourage you. Your course with your husband in a relationship you seem to have no intentions of changing is a great path.

I will include a prayer for your strength as you continue with this.

It isn't irrelevant, and I know what you mean about the thoughts.
I'm gay, I am in a heterosexual marriage and intend to remain faithful.. but it is tough, especially given the reaction of a lot of Christians.
But, as others have said, temptation is not sin, and God loves you unconditionally.

It may be worth seeing a counselor.. in my opinion this isn't something there is a 'cure' for, but talking it through with someone may help you to come to terms with your feelings.
Please don't allow this to cause you to feel bad about yourself, you are a beloved daughter of God, and we are all tempted, no one sin is worse than another.

Praying for you
