Two of my gay friends think i'm gay and bi(one thinks i'm gay, the other thinks i'm bi). Now when they brought this up I denied it, but they have got me thinking about it, and now I really do think I'm bi. This isn't the first time I've questioned my sexuality either. When I was about 10 I went through this time when I thought I liked girls and it scared me big time cause back then I didn't really know anything about sexuality. But then I had a talk with my mom about it and she said that if I was gay she wouldn't have any problem with it and would still love me the same, which made me feel better about it. I got over that though thinking I was for sure straight. But now that my friends made me think about it again, I dunno. I find nothing wrong with being gay, bi, or whatever, but I just feel different now. And I'm not sure if it's cause I'm keeping this from people and I feel guilty about it or because I don't wanna be bi. I'm just really confused right now..:confused:

Your not Bi because your friends say you are, its about how you feel. Are you attracted to the same sex? If not, your straight.

Yes. I prefer guys though.


And I know I'm not bi because my friends say I am. I've thought long and hard about this.

Well, if you are bi then this is a big step for you. You just need to let the thought sink in. Maybe then you'll come into terms with the thought. You've thought long and hard with this, and you still don't sound like you've reached a confident conclusion.

I suggest you just wait and forget about the topic. Tell your friends to not bring up the subject anymore for awhile, that way you have more time to yourself to decide your sexuality. Sometimes we hear tings, then we start to believe them.

First off, great sounding mum, your very lucky.

I'm not sure that you've shared enough details with us to allow us to really judge your sexuality. Who do you think about when you j/o for example?

You don't sound too hung up about this, so try and stay relaxed and avoid rushing to any conclusion. Time will tell.

No one can tell you.

But, if you are.. it's kinda understanable with being uncomferable with that fact.. you're well aware on how much crap you could get for your sexuality

dont be preasured to put a lable on anything now. k?

No one can tell u that u are gay or bi. When I figured out I was bi, I felt bad then I accepted it and it's just the way I am. And I have a bf :) now and extremely happy and I am totally fine now.

What I am saying is just wait a few years months weeks or days and think about and to follow what your heart tells you. Teen years are confusing and may take time. Most people will tell you this. People told me this in my posts too. If you don't think my advice is accurate that is just fine. Just wait a while and you decide not by what your friends tell you.

Dont take any notice of your so called friends they just want you to be like them so they can have you too. Stick up for your feelings. It is easy just to go along with something you may regret latter. If your not emotionally or sexually wanting guys your straight - Lucky you.

I went through something very similar. I was about 15 or 16 when I finally just admitted it to myself. I went to the bathroom and cried my eyes out. I always denied it or didn't even let it cross my mind that I liked girls. I thought I was just curious and only liked girls in a sexual way. I thought it would pass. Then I got a huge crush on a girl from school. That was when I knew I was bi. It is a big step and it can be scary. Just think about what you like and what you want, not anyone else. And it also helps a lot that your mom would be supportive of it. Some parents get really terrible about it. You could be bi or just curious. Just try not to think about the terms too much. Don't try to always put a lable on yourself. :)
