Am I confused or just in denial?

[Daracon]

I don't know if I am truly confused about my sexuality or just in denial of who I really am. I have been confused about my sexuality (bisexual) for about 6 years, or since I was 12 or 13. I seem to have an emotional and some-what physical attraction to guys, but I am looking more for a more-than-friends relationship than just sex. Knowing that I have an emotional attachment to males I thought that it was a sure sign that I was in fact bisexual. But whenever I think about what my friends/peers/family may think I just try to forget about it. But usually the attraction does come back eventually. It has been like this for a long time, so I don't know if it is just hormones seriously F***ing with my life or it is that I am trying to repress the feelings of the same gender because I am worried about others opinions of me. Any thoughts or comments can help, thank you for your time and sorry this was long, I really need some help. :D

Doesn't matter if the post was long, kinda helps us to get to know you a lil better lol.

Anyways, that answer is really only one you can find. Like at the moment I am wondering if I am bisexual or just my hormones messin with me. Granted, reaching the end of my puberty stage now. But still, I dunno.

Anyways, just try to think about it for a really long time. (I was up one night all night thinking about it) Usually helps.

Thank you for your quick reply! I have thought about it for so long before that one week my head started to hurt lol. Thanks for the advice!

Not a worry.

If anything, try to see if you really have an emotional like romantic attachment towards guys. It usually helps, but that can also be your hormones.

What kind of porn do you watch? Seriously. It sounds like you're at least a little bi but that doesn't mean you have to act on it come out or anything like that

Well generally male and female but I do watch gay porn every now and then and I usually get turned on by it depending on what kind of guys are in it.

Well there you go you're turned on by guys

To be perfectly honest, I think you're trying to deny what feelings you have for guys. You're always trying to find that "more than friends" relationship, and to me that's the glaring reason as to why I think you're in denial. You also say you're only kind of turned on by guys yet gay porn turns you on. That's another sign right there.

I suppose you are right, thanks for replying! Do you have any tips on way I could stop being in denial and be open to who I am?

This sounded a lot like me. I am not out to anyone other than my sister and a friend. I was always in denial that I was straight. However I suppose I'm bi just extra picky with boys. I have a boyfriend now though who I couldn't picture leaving. Advice on coming out? Ermm I just straight up told them to be honest because I had a real urge to need to tell someone. They were both completely fine with it. I guess this is a good sign! :)

First you need to admit that you are bisexual. That's probably the hardest part. But once you can confidently say, whether to yourself or someone else, "I am bisexual" then you know you have admitted it.

Dude please don't watch PORN. is really a bad influence to us.

How so? I have been watching porn since I was 12 and I am perfectly fine, don't have misconceptions about what sex really is and I don't have unrealistic expectations from both males and females. All porn does for me is relive stress and of course gives me pleasure. If there is a negative effect of pornography I have not experienced it.

Well just as a first step, maybe change the "straight" part in your sig. Also telling someone is one way to get over denial quick.

I don't think there's really any true way of knowing quite yet when you're in the place where you are now. I think ((If you still don't know)) that it would be best to wait it out and see how you feel in a few months or so. (:<33
