    I am a female and i am in a complete state of confusion about my sexuality.

    All my life I have found myself becoming attached to girls; im real life, characters in tv shows and celebrities. I far more frequently find this with girls rather than boys, which has me questioning. But it is never been a sexual attraction, more of a strong need to be friends or to just be around them, which is why i am so confused.

    I went through a phase a few years ago when i started questioning where i was on the sexuality spectrum, but after a few weeks or months decided to just brush it off and tell myself i was straight.

    Only recently I have started thinking about this again, when i started watching the show Orange Is The New Black. I have become so infatuated with the relationship between the two female leads. Which is a sexual and romantic relationship. Is it normal to be straight and want a lesbian couple to be together so badly? I feel as if i may only be questioning my sexuality because of stereotypes and what society has lead me to believe means i am straight, but i am still unsure. Has anyone been through this? I also am unsure whether I do see females secually attractive, as the only time I have is when i have been questioning my sexual orientation.

    I'm not sure if this makes sense but it has been taking over my mind and i cant stop worrying about it. Advice would be greatly appreciated!

    It's still okay to want a lesbian couple to be together if you are straight.
