I didn’t fully understand I was gay until the middle of highschool because of how deep in the closet I was. I was clearly attracted to men but whenever I felt it I was like “no no, I’m projecting onto them and that’s why I feel that way” It was until I genuinely dated a man I realized that I was gay

My best and only friend in 5th grade was also a troubled queer kid. He had a boyfriend in malibu. The bad boy in 5th grade I'm sure was gay too and years later he did drag routine in front of his mirrored closet for me during a school project. That guy became hardcore Catholic though.
i thought my lack of attraction towards men IRL was another side effect of living in northern virginia... it just turns out i'm not attracted to men anywhere in the world
