Hi Justin, I certainly admire your boldness. I'd be curious to know how old you are. I am guessing middle teens? I wouldn't expect your parents to understand....it is very difficult in our society for anyone who has not spent alot of time considering it and learning about it, to accept boylove. I would suggest two things though: First that you make sure that your parents understand that you have strong convictions against hurting boys and that although you cannot control your orientation, you can control behavior. Give them confidence that you would not act on your attraction. Secondly, if you are in your teens I would suggest that it is POSSIBLE that you might also be able to develop an attraction to girls. I would encourage you to pursue that. I truly believe that, had I understood myself at an earlier age, that I had a chance to develop some attraction to women as well. Anyway, would love to hear more. Thanks for posting. You are not alone. Love, Ben |
