There is not an answer to this question.

Reason: in order for there to a method for doing something, the action must be possible.



Seriously, dude, just listen to reason and accept that you're gay. I't a lot easier to be gay and happy than it is to halfway repress all your desires and hopes.



EDIT:

So the guy beneath me is right to a degree. Yes, you do not have to have gay sex. However, even if you don't have gay sex, you are still gay. You still need to live with your desires and attractions. The only way to do that is to accept that you're gay. Acceptance is the first step to moving forward. If you accept that you're gay, you can control how much impact it has on your life.



Humans are designed with both rational and sensitive (or emotional) psyches (or souls). As such, it is not just enough to say, "I'm not going to be gay!" You only have conscious control over the rational component of your psyche. However, in order to be happy, your emotions and reason have to be balanced. You have to give your emotions some leeway. If you fight against them all your life, you're only living half a life.

Im not going to tell you can't stop being gay, because im sure there is some way. but life would be a lot simpler if you accepted yourself the way you are, and moved on. there is nothing wrong with being gay, its difficult at first, but it gets better.

You don't

you have to learn to accept it



there are organizations that claim you can, but they are all scams designed to separate you from your money



ignore the answer above me, Exodus International does not work,. In fact the two guys that founded Exodus International ended up marrying each other

Of course you can, you're right. There are many people who have chosen not be homosexual anymore. Many work with ministries to homosexuals. You can talk to them. They can help. Exodus International is one. Focus on the Family as well.



Remember, it's the action that makes you homosexual, not attractions, not dreams, fantasies, etc. It's what you DO. It's a behavior YOU control. YOU choose who, when, where, or even if you have sex. Since it's a controlled behavior, YOU get to choose how that behavior is expressed.



Best Wishes!

One time when I was 13, my mom found a pack of cigarettes in my room and made me smoke all of them at the same time. I haven't smoked since. Just sayin'
