    Is it odd to start questioning your sexuality at 17?? I feel like everyone knows at such a young age, and things just started happening this year for me. At the moment, I feel no difference with being ith a boy or girl and can find bothe extremely attractive. But this has left me extremely confused as well. I just want to know who I am again.

    Nah. I actually find that even though I did not add it all up until i was like 15 or 16, looking back there were little signs and things that make more sense more now that I know.

    May I suggest that you understand first that your sexual orientation is not "who you are", it is a characteristic of who you are. In all other respects you have probably not changed that much.

    It is perfectly normal to have these feelings come a little later (though 17 is far from later), you need to explore by catching your thoughts and feelings, perhaps keeping a confidential journal would help?
