No one knows whether sexual orientation is genetic or learned. Some scientific studies have suggested it is genetic, but the correlations found in those tests were far from conclusive. If you ask parties on either side of this issue, they are going to give loaded answers that further their own political agendas. And your sexual orientation is not a political issue. The forces that are coercing you to identify yourself as ‘gay’ or ‘straight’ don’t have your best interests in mind, but their own.

So what is in your best interest? It is for you to decide what you are happy with, by asking yourself what you want out of the hand that life has dealt you. And it is a difficult hand indeed, because almost any choice you make is going to involve one kind of sacrifice or another. And it’s very hard to have it both ways and be faithful to any partner at the same time. I have chosen to live a straight life, with several male friends with whom I enjoy a limited degree of physical closeness, but a deep spiritual connection. I have found it is this connection which I long for in male companions, anyway. And we have ‘an understanding’ between us, because they are in the same boat I’m in. It’s a choice we’ve made, and truthfully, it’s no easier or harder than any of the others.

I’ve had a similar experience. Not long ago, I became very close friends with a guy, and it all started with fixed stares from across crowded rooms. I knew he wanted to meet, and when we finally got the opportunity, he enthusiastically pursued friendship with me. We share a degree of physical intimacy, the kind parents give their children. I lie in his arms, he caresses my hair and back, etc. But he claims to be straight, and is very demonstrative about that in public. We share a tacit agreement to enjoy physical closeness in privacy. But I’m afraid to ask him if he’s interested in something more. So while the sparks definitely flew when we first caught each others’ eye, I don’t know if it’s enough to determine someone’s intentions. For now, it’s a great feeling to know that another man whom I find attractive enjoys a kind of intimacy I could never have imagined before.
