How do you know if you’re lesbian, gay, bisexual, or heterosexual?
Some people know from a young age. Others think they know and then discover differently as they get older. Still others are confused and explore different relationships to figure it out.
Take your time. Don’t push yourself to commit to an identity or label. Feel what you feel, and know that whoever you are attracted to, you are completely normal. You’ll know when it’s time to attach a name to your feelings.
a little confused

i've had boyfriends but everytime i'm with them i feel
uncomfortable when we're together.but when i'm with best
girl friends i flirt a little and am kind of attracted to
them. what does that mean for me? but i am also attracted to
guys too. we have alot of bi/gay/lesbians in my school and i
don't know if i should experiment with them to find out my
true feelings.
RE: How do u know if your bisexual?

I think the answer up above sums it up best. There is no
way to know for sure if you are bisexual except to give
yourself time and see what feels right for you. Sexual
orientation is not something that is black or white, there
are many different shades of grey for different people. The
important thing to know is that no matter who you love, it
is OK. Check out this FAQ for some additional resources:

Just because you feel attracted to one or two people of the
same gender doesn't mean you are gay. It might, but it is
not a sure thing. In fact, it's normal to be attracted to
someone of both genders at one point before finding out what
your sexual orientation is. When you feel a strong
attraction to a specific gender in general, that will tell
you. :)
I just don't know

Sometimes I wonder a couple of years back I used to think of
two girls and view it as a turn off now wen I think of it I
just sometimes wish I could find that one I feel as I'm bi
but I don't wanna come out n tell anyone without trying
first its just confusing
Be open

I knew I was bi when I was 12, I remember being so afraid of
what people would think, and I didn't know how to tell
people. But after I told my friends and family I was so
relieved, they had no problem with it at all, if you know
you're bi/gay/lesbian or whatever you should come out with
it and just be open
it is True

Sexual orientation is about who you are physically AND
emotionally attracted to. It is very natural for people to
feel more comfortable around people of the same gender they
are. You should not feel like you have to put a label on
your feelings or that you have to experiment sexually with
others. Take some time to explore your thoughts and feelings
and make sure you understand them first. No matter what you
feel, I want you to know that it is perfectly normal and
okay to feel that way.
