I've known since I was 12. But I blew it off until this year. I realized in late July when I got admitted to a hospital and developed a crush on this girl who was a patient there as well. She was flirting with me, and I told her I was straight even though it took every nerve in my body to do so. We never exchanged contact details, and I face palmed myself for a couple weeks before finally getting the courage to come out to not only myself but everyone else. Besides a few people from my mom's side of the family, everyone was accepting of it.

I came out to my mom when I was 10, but I always kinda knew I liked boys since I was like 7 or so. I have always felt strongly towards boys more than towards girls ,like i never wanted to kiss a girl as badly as I wanted to kiss a boy.

There's already a sticky thread for this btw.
I'm not sure, I accepted myself in April, just before my 16th birthday. I've always had a thing for boys but never realised what it was.

I was in 6th grade and was oddly attracted to this guy... then I found out what bisexuality was in 7th grade.

I have always liked boys more, but didn't understand or realize my feelings or anything until I was 11, when I realized I actually thought a friend I'd known from cub scouts since I was 9, I realized I liked him actually

About 8 or 9 as far as I know. Honestly, probably younger. Despite all the other shit I grew up with, no one forced the idea of me liking boys simply because I was a girl. So I had "crushes" on everyone I admired or thought was really pretty as a kid. Then as I got older and crushes got more serious, it was never a "am I gay or straight" thing, I just had a crush.
So pretty young. I didn't really realize anything, that was just who I am.

I didn't really accept the fact that I was gay until very recently and I still tell people that I'm bisexual and I am still willing to date and have sex with girls. It's a complicated situation, I have almost 90% attraction to males so I'm pretty sure I'm gay but I don't want to like completely barricade off potential with girls. Ugh, I make no sense.
Anyways, I probably started noticing attraction to guys when I was around eight years old.

I flipped between "oh shit I'm not straight" to "what no way I'm totally straight" between the ages of 13-15. Looking back, the answer was pretty obvious the entire time

discovered i liked boys years ago but was so young i didn't know anything about sexual attractions, just liked being with my friends and seeing each other naked. this year i decided i'm bisexual. have sexual and romantic feelings towards girls, but most of my attraction is still towards boys. i enjoy the things i do with my male friends, mostly because we treat it as having fun together, not a true relationship. basically we're horny and need sexual release and have no problem helping each other with that. I can picture myself meeting the right girl, falling in love and having a family. maybe my attraction to boys is stronger because of the things we do sexually, or maybe i'm just still totally confused about everything. trying to answer this question has made me think more about who i am.
