But here is the issue: in my cirles we don't start typically dating (for a wife) till post Israel (my guys are going late this year and early next year), meaning like 22 or 23 years old. How do I tell my parents I don't wanna stick around and that I kinda can't because of what I've said before, and I'm kinda finding myself attracted to women these days- more then my teenage tears. I hope I was clear, but any ideas?
