    It was not until I was thinking about my sexuality did I realize the first person I ever found attractive was a female. I had buried it deep in my mind and it didn't surface for over 10 years.

    She was my babysitter as a kid and a few years older then me. I sort of knew I liked her then but I was still a bit to young to understand what I was feeling.

    What about you? Did you understand right at the moment or did it take a few days/months/ years to sink in?

    I know my first school crush was in the first or second grade and her name was Katie. I remember feeling so excited when she was at the same birthday party I was invited to. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: Well, I understand this now like years and years later. But like you, I was too young to honestly comprehend that it was a crush at the time.

    Sexually - was a friend of the family. He was a few years older than me.

    Attracted too as in possible relationship wise was when I was just over 20 years old and he was 17/18 years old. We liked each other but it was the early 90's and we both feared the retribution but it was me who chickened out, sadly.

    I think it must have been Elton John when I was about 7 in the mid seventies as I can remember looking an album cover and kissing it but didn't realise I was gay until I was about 15

    I think when I was younger I deluded myself into thinking I had crushes on girls just to fit in. My first proper crush on a boy was probably when I was about 12, but I decided that it meant I was bisexual. Took me a few more years to realise that my crushes on girls weren't actually crushes.

    My friend in seventh grade. I had switched schools between fifth grade and seventh grade, and my world was turned around, my bubble was popped, and I had no idea that I was anything but straight for another year.

    My first physical attraction was a male model
    My first emotional and physical attraction was a woman that i've known,
    it took me a few months to understand what those feelings mean

    This is something that I realized only a couple of weeks ago. My very first gay crush was Adam Lambert on American Idol. Wow, that was a long time ago... 2009. :eusa_naug

    This girl at school in sixth grade. I remember her just being really pretty and she was super nice, but I didn't realize I was gay until the summer after sixth grade.

    Uh..............I don't know. In all likelihood it was a girl because I didn't really have any idea I was bi until I became really attracted to this guy I know about 1.5 years ago.

    Yep, I'm with you. I'd been actively repressing my sexuality from when I was 11-12 (sometime during sixth grade when I first noticed) til April of this year and I looking back I can think of a lot of boys I thought were really hot in middle school, high school, and college. The first was probably a kid who I was in a play with. I still remember.

    I felt I was bi when I got a crush on this girl Caroline in Kindergarten, and when I was in 7th Grade, I had a crush on this amazing blonde haired, blue eyed stud. He was amazing... His name was William.

    I think I might have had a crush on this girl when I was a kid but I'm not sure. First real crush, though, that I have acknowledged of, is this classmate of mine I have been crushing on for the past few months. I really have to get over her. :S

    My first crush was my neighbor across the street. I thought she was so cute and then hot when I was a teen. I still have a thing for redheads. hehe

    From about 5th grade to 7th grade I had the biggest crush on one of my best friends. He moved away after 7th grade, but I used to think about him day and night. He was so cute...

    A girl named Madison when I was about 10. I was in denial and told myself that yeah she was pretty, and if I was a guy then I'd like her, but since I'm a girl I didn't. The worst part is I didn't even recognize as any kind of actual attraction for 3 years when I began to question my sexuality.
