Hi i am 20 years old and I have been reading a lot about HOCD and feel that i have it. Until recently i have been comfortable with my sexuality and have liked every aspect of girls my entire life----(although, i have never had a girlfriend, just havent found the right one)----. I was able to say, "He's a good looking chap," with out any thought afterwards. But now i feel the effects of what i presume to be the ocd.
One day somebody said some "gay" comment and for what ever reason it had stuck it head the rest of the day. i kept having thoughts of, "Maybe i was gay and didnt know it," and it has really caused me a great deal of distress. And the mention of getting a tingling feeling in the groin does happen to me, it sucks. This is why i am convincing myself that i am and always will be straight, because these thought are not "arousing" or "pleasant." I just would like to know is this truly OCD cause i am going insane.
P.S. i had one last note, i feel that when i look at girls, i get stressed one when i cant get an erection. I feel like maybe i am putting too much pressure on myself to try to think straight(no pun) and see if i feel anything. I feel it is the opposite of what i am going through when looking at guys. With guys i am checking to see if i anything happens, and with girls i am trying to make something happen.
Is this OCD? and has anyone had my experiences

Hey is their anyway that something happened to you when you were young? Were you molested by a man, or guy somewhat your age? Try to relax when it comes to women. I have heard a lot about being gay, the main thing is that it is not really about the sexual attraction. The main thing is if you have always felt that you wanted to be in a relationship with a male not as a friend but as something more, that is also accompanied by a sexual relationship. When you were in 7th grade or so did you want to have a boyfriend, did you get feelings for guys and think that you would rather have relations with a boy. Did you have a crush on boys? This would be a better indicator. Tell me what you think.
