I've been having dreams since I was younger in which I'm a guy getting intimate with another guy. Yet I never really had a dream in which I'm intimate with another woman.

I have dated other women and managed to repress these dreams, but all of a sudden, they've surfaced more and more in spades.

Not to mention that I enjoy male on male romance stories/doujinshi/etc. and I've tried to enjoy regular romance along with female on female. Nothing on the latter two.

My original characters have often been gay males, which adds to this equation. People often pegged me as a gay man as well, conflicting me.

In the past, I dated a supposed trans woman named Cecilia, yet I wasn't able to get intimate with them. I wasn't able to get comfortable in terms of wanting to stay with them despite them wanting to remain male.

However, as of late, the dreams and my getting interested in men has gotten stronger and my thoughts of wanting to be with a woman has almost diminished. Mom has said she's okay with me being bi, gay, etc. so that's some hope.

But what to do? I know the my being a male in the dreams was due to my being trans, but I don't know what to make of me being intimate with another man in the dreams.

Help?

Being a human being is complicated, and it is a freaking long, emotional roller coaster when you are trying to figure out "who you truly are". Regardless of whether or not anyone else or I say, it does not mean that we are right, or have the right to dictate who YOU are. You are you, and we don't cannot say otherwise.

Now that I got that out of the way, hi! I'm Axel, or Axton. (Axel for short.) My full name is Jonathan Axton Grant. I am Pre-T FTM. I am bisexual. My fiance is MTF, and she has been on hormones for 6 or so months.

I am bisexual, and it sucks. I have homosexual tendencies, yet I am attracted to gamer girls. You, on the other hands, have given more insight on the homosexual side. You are aroused by yaoi stories, or any stories with gay men on them that suit your expectations. The only way that you can be sure if you are gay or not, is if you go on a date with a guy. That's my assumption. You seem to have trouble accepting the fact that you are, if you believe that you are.

Your mom supports you, so that takes care of the disowning nightmare that a lot of us have to go through. That's wonderful for you and her.

You are a male, regardless of you being FTM. Some gay cismen have been known to date FTM's whom also identify as gay. Hell, I am dating a bisexual woman, who has a p***s. I'm fine with that. I am romantically and sexually attracted to her.

Then comes what I just brought up; sexual and romantic attraction. THIS site explains the difference between the two. You may have been romantically attracted to the trans that you said you were with, but you weren't sexually attracted to the transperson. That is okay.

I understand that this post was posted awhile ago, but if you have any questions, feel free to message me. I would be honored to help you in any way. I hope your New Years was a good one. Stay strong, my friend.
