I'm not saying you're wrong for wanting to share your faith or tell people that Jesus loves them. But have you considered whether preaching to people in this setting is actually bringing them closer to God or creating resistance to your message? If your goal is to show people God's love, how you approach them matters, too.
Look at how Jesus lived. He healed the sick, showed compassion to people society looked down on, and even washed his disciples' feet (John 13:3–17). He demonstrated humility and service, not superiority. If we're called to follow Jesus, shouldn't we try to reflect his example in how we treat others?
Also, just because you're not gay or a drinker doesn't mean you're without sin or morally superior to anyone else. Romans 3:23 says that all have sinned, and Matthew 7:3–5 teaches us to examine our own faults before focusing on the faults of others.
Matthew 7:6 also teaches discernment in how we share what is sacred. I'm not saying people are unworthy of hearing the gospel, but that wisdom matters in how and when we share it.
You can genuinely believe you're spreading God's love and still need to consider how your approach affects others. Jesus didn't demonstrate his greatness by making people feel beneath him; he demonstrated it through compassion, humility, and service. If we're going to tell people that Jesus loves them, shouldn't our actions help demonstrate that love, too?
