Well. I came out as bi to my to best friends who are also bi. I've been attracted to one of them since I met her. And I have never really been attracted to a guy before. Except this one semi girlish one. And that didn't last very long at all. I've also had dreams where my friends look me in the eyes and tell me I'm gay. I'm not sure who I am. But I at least wanna know what I am...:help:
Hello! :smilewave It's okay to not be sure! I wasn't for the longest time. The cool thing is, you can take all the time you need to discover what you feel comfortable with, and EC has some great people to give you the best support along the way! (*hug*)
I know for me, romantic/sexual preferences often change from time to time. Sometimes I like girls more, sometimes I like boys more. Sometimes these preferences change after weeks, sometimes they stay the same for a year(interestingly, my preferences for non binary people have always stayed the same) Also, there is romantic vs sexual/sensual attraction too. It's possible to experience all kinds of attraction to one gender, and only one kind to another. Don't feel pressured to put a label on yourself; labels are great, but it's perfectly fine to choose not to label yourself. However, if you do choose a label, don't feel like it's wrong to change it. If you identify one way for a while but then later feel a different label is more fitting for you, that's completely fine.
Yes! Labels are a totally unnecessary thing to worry about while you are figuring out who you are. I questioned for 6 years before coming to a conclusion. Originally I was obsessed with trying to apply a label but then I just kind of let it go and eventually figured it out. I'm sure you can do the same. Although it might seem like a big looming thing, you just can't worry about your sexuality. Just do what feels right and you will eventually find your answer.
