Hello There!
My name, is Morg. Nah, that's not my real name but for anonymity I'll keep it at that. I'm a 27 year old queer living in Massachusetts. I've had an interesting past decade or however long it's been since I started coming out. I first came out to my family as gay. I had had certain experiences that at the time had led me to believe this to be true. That's been a while ago now. Now, I have so many things going on with my personal identity, I just say I'm queer...
Issues?.....
Yep, I have issues. I have identified as gay, transgender, and asexual. I'm attracted to guys.. but I'm also "sometimes" attracted to gals too. I believe/feel that I am a gal stuck in a guys body and therefore I have severe body image issues due to that. Growing up or growing out as I like to say, has also led me to know a severe dislike for sex. To me sex is nasty and I don't want anything to do with it. So to be honest that causes a lot of issues.
Relationship & Power-Balance......
When I came out to my family I was kicked out. When that happened, I moved around the country from shelter to shelter until I moved to Massachusetts. I stayed in several shelters here until I met my current partner and shortly after we got together I moved in with him. My concept of my sexuality and identity has dramatically changed during our relationship and that is causing some issues. My partner does not "like girls" and therefore if I start to transition I will have to leave. I dealt with that, but then I developed my asexuality. My partner likes sex and can be somewhat demanding when it comes to that. I tend to feel trapped in my relationship because I don't want to have sex AND I want to transition, but if I do, I will have to leave and will be homeless again. I've been off of the streets for two years now. I have a computer, clothes, and stuff I can't carry around with me. I don't know what to do about this, maybe I can get advice here.
Anyway, I'll shut up for now.
