Up until I was 12 I liked girls and I found them attractive, then at 13 I started liking guys so I considered myself bi. Now i'm almost 15 and I can't emotionally connect with girls anymore and they don't "do" as much for me anymore, and I actually find guys attractive way more than girls now. I'm a quiet kid and i've never had a sexual relationship before, and I can't imagine coming out to my parents because they would disown me. What do I do?

You actually sound a lot like me. I'm kinda quiet and haven't been in a sexual relationship. (I'm also 14) My orientation has changed over the years, and I began with liking girls. Then I discovered that I liked them both, and soon began to like them both equally (almost). I'm sexually attracted to both guys and girls, but I'm only romantically (want a relationship) attracted to girls. Hope this helps you realize that this is normal.
Plus, your parents won't disown you lol! I'm sure they love you, and will respect you if you come out about it. If they feel that your sexual orientation is wrong, then that's their problem, not yours.

You have the right to believe what you want to believe. There is nothing wrong with that. Also, your parents will / should accept you for who you are, not who you like. They will not disown you just because you are attracted to boys more than girls. That is your own personal being, and they should not / WILL not have a problem with it.

There's a difference between "changing" (which isnt possible) and "figuring it out".

It may be a phase it may not be. The important thing here is don't jump the gun and begin assigning labels to yourself. Wait it out, if you find a girl you really like, date her. If you find a guy you like, date him. You are young, as you said you haven't had a sexual relationship yet anyways so who knows what you'll like. Just do you and don't worry about it.

Puberty 101 :arrow: Teen Sexuality, this fits better in this category.
What everyone said above is good advice. You don't need to run to label yourself; just give it some time and see what happens. There's no reason to come out until 1. You're entirely sure of yourself and 2. You actually want to.

Since you haven't had any sexual experience I think its just puberty - raging hormones and curiousity. So I agree with Katiya just wait and see if these feelings stay. just go with the flow don't be in such a hurry to label yourself.

It's not changing, you're just discovering. Before I knew what it meant to be gay and that it was okay I thought I like guys too.

You're very curious about your changing orientation for sure. You could be moving from mostly girls to mostly boys side of bisexuality, which is fine. Just don't feel you are pressured to have to put yourself into a label and/or come out to your parents.
