When do you know?

Sometimes it develops over time, other times it clicks. Depends on the person. You have to accept your sexuality. That's when it will really begin to sink in.

Continuing to talk to people and asking questions wil definitely help.

Hope that helps a little

 

It's kind of like working on a physics problem. It's the eureka moment when you UNDERSTAND what the question asks. It doesn't mean you don't still have a lot of work to do, but now you know what the hell you're working with.
For some people they know early, but for others (like myself) I didn't really think it was an option back then. Girls like boys, boys like girls. I wasn't really comfortable with playing with the idea of homosexuality until age 16 or so.

 

I didn't know for like 24 years and then it was an "aha!" moment. But I'm just one story. People come out at all ages and all sorts of processes.

 

It was more of an "aha!" moment for me. Others will say they knew pretty early on. Others will not know until they're much older til I am. Point is, there is really no definite point in time where it will click for all people. For me, I wrestled with the idea ever since middle school til last summer so 8 years or so

 

For me, the realization about my sexuality did not come instantly. It took me several years to figure out and accept who I am attracted to. Just try not to think too much about it.. you will figure it out eventually. But if it helps, trying to imagine yourself being with others romantically or sexually without thinking how others will take it or react might help you.
