Birth control pill usage?

I literally just started birth control medicine because of my period going on for a few days longer than usual. I took my first pill ever today but I decided that I don’t want to take it anymore because I’m in a committed relationship and I heard that it can affect who you’re attracted to and or who you love and I’m not willing to risk it because I’m really happy with him. I doubt it would affect me but I want to make sure. So since I only took one pill ever would that affect it at all? My attraction that is, the birth control medicine is the Tri-Sprintec tablet. I’ve only taken one pill ever and I can’t seem to find the answers on google.

The birth control pill does not have any effect on who you are attracted to or who you love.
It should not be a problem. I also recommend you discuss the birth control in debth with a medical professional about the use and side effects of a birth control pill.
