    Alright, I've probably posted a thousand threads asking for help on whether I'm gay or bi, but I have some new theories lolol.

    So, I know I like girls. That's a fact. So I'm definitely not straight. However, I can't tell if the "feelings" I get for guys is just me wanting a big-brother/best friend figure (since I grew up with only sisters, so I've always wanted a brother, and I get along better as friends with guys than girls), or if I really do like guys?

    Only if a guy flirts with me do I get butterflies. I can't tell if it's just because I like the attention, or if I like him? Also, if I see a hot guy in public, I find myself thinking, "He's hot. What would it be like if I was in a relationship with him? Would I like it?"

    I also love watching gay guy couples on YouTube, and I always get a happy feeling inside when I see them. I never get the same feeling for lesbian couples. It's like I'm so similar to lesbians that I feel nothing when I see other lesbian couples?? But I just have this "interest" in guys and how they think/act/feel. It's like I can't tell if I'm interested in them as potential partners, or if I'm just interested in them because I'm not a guy and I just wonder what being a guy is like. Idk... I'm just so confused!!!!!!

    You might be bi-romantic(or pan/poly/etc-romantic). It means you get romantically attracted to 2 or more genders, but maybe not sexually.
