Love help: I have come to a conclusion. - Help.com

What is your name?

Sounds like you got a lot out there. You seem to be a good writer. What are you studying in school?

My name is Damon.
Which means I am gay. That may put you off helping me as it has to so many other people.
I study English Literature.

Yeah you write extremely well, and you sexuality has nothing to do with you being a person. You are not alone Damon. Spend some time here on Help.com and you will see.

Btw, I couldn’t tell you were gay just by the name Damon.

It is not true that you are left alone. God is only just a prayer away. GOD CARES FOR YOU!

I think that’s great guys, but first he probably needs to find compassion from people before he finds God. That’s just usually the way it goes. I’m sure he’s heard that one before.

I agree with BizWiz, Damon. You should make an account here. It’d be a good way to start making some friends. That’s short term advice.

In the long run I suggest you reevaluate some things about your situation. For instance, you’ve said you do not want to become your parents, which is a goal. Anyone with a goal is not a nobody. Not saying that to be cheesey or anything, but I think goal can be put in the wrong context. It’s like you have something that will keep you going. I think this situation shows that you need to find some independence though. I had a situation that taught me the same thing, so if you want to go about this there is a variety of ways you can do so which I can help teach you about. Once you do, I think you’ll have more confidence in yourself, and people will be drawn to you. Eventually you will find the people to fill these gaps in your life, but to turn things around you have to start at the roots. You understand?

i know how you feel my parents are worthless and i vowed to never be like them and im not.just because your gay shouldn’t matter dont let it control you. yes people can be horrible cuz either they are afraid or misinformed. if it is at all possible can you have a pet? they cant talk but a pet can be really helpful they give unconditional love. my dog has helped my through alot. just going out and walking her and playing helps alot for me anyways. if you can have a dog it can open up new releases for you and possibly meet new pepole

There is our Heavenly Father who really cares about you. Why don’t you talk all your concern to him. He is listening!

That is a great idea tp, I’m surprised I hadn’t thought of that. I think a pet would be great for you Damon. Because that’s a bond you usually don’t have to worry about.

One commonly finds God through people. But while I think it’s great you find you are trying to point him in the right direction, on this site we try to give people advice that they can use whether or not they are religious. Gay people often feel abandoned by God (I do not know if this is your cause Damon, I just have a lot of gay friends. I know you probably didn’t want to turn this into a religion-for-gay conversation and I’m so sorry) so you may want to consider things like that before you bluntly state to lay your concerns and worries all over Him. That’s usually a turn-off, just to let you know.

Why don’t you try reading about his situation and helping him from that rather than your own faith?
