You're only 13, don't decide yet or give yourself a label. Wait till you know for sure

What's the rush, you're only 13, things could change, give yourself time to settle. There's no need to say anything to your family at this stage.

[Alan1996]

they will figure it out I think

[daveywavey]

do the hellen keller and talk with ur hips?

[Delusion15]

Yeah what everyone says don't label yourself and who knows things could change. Just go with it till you know for sure

[Giles]

Don't, yet.. I would just wait until your sure. then try telling som1 u trust.

My mom wasn't to happy when she found out I liked both. But she got over it.
When it comes to love, I believe what t.A.T.u said: "Love is Love. There is no gay, straight or bi. Whether you love your own gender the other gender or both, It's still comes back to Love. And that's all there is."
But give yourself sometime. Mess around a little more. ;] Found out what really suits you.

Sure you might want to tell them and I can completely understand that but think about it for a second ~ once youtell them you can't UN-tell them, and even though you might end up not being bisexual you'll never convince them you're straight...

Not something you want to gamble with.

Well.. U can wait till ur ready for it (like on age 16-18?)
Maby u say it now and it isnt true. U cant un-tell them, like The Harlequin says.

Like evrery one says youre only 13 so things could change between now and when your older :)
just like meeee >.< .. i also think im bi but im only 14 so things could change in the future XD

You're only 13 years old. It's to early for you to make decisions like that. You may feel it now but once your in stronger puberty an your hormones run you'll feel it more and then you will have a definate answer. I didn't realize until I was 15 and looking back at previos years I always had an attraction to guys and girls but didn't realize it more until 7th Or and or 8th grade. Just wait until your older. Once you do figure it out. Look back in the years and see if you always had a thong for guys and girls like I did.

Haha. I just like this post. :yes:

Anyways, there is no reason that you need to worry. When it comes down to it, your family is the only one who you know that will be there 100% no matter what. Although it may be unconditional and hard to tell at some points in time, they will always be there for you when times get tough. Stay strong, and don't sweat it...

As others above also said, their is no real reason to label yourself at any age! None of us are 100% straight, 100% bisexual, or 100% gay. Although some people might disagree, we are all humans and our emotions/feelings/w.e change through time. The only thing that labels do is create hate in the world. I don't mean to be racist when I say this, but it is just a statistic. Anyways, for example... if their was an Arabic looking man or woman in traditional clothing carrying a box and walking toward you on the sidewalk, what would you think/do? If their was a Caucasian male walking toward you on the street wearing dress clothes and carrying a box, what would you do/think? Most Americans voted that they would do anything possible to avoid the Arabic looking man or woman, while they would just keep walking past the Caucasian man. And why is this? The answer is that we chose to label Arabic people as terrorists. This terrible label is a stereotype, and label (among others), that must end. That Arabic man or woman is the same as you (in most cases)... a legal American citizen, who is proud to practice his heritage. On the other hand, we see the Caucasian American as a "normal" person and chose to keep walking, while he could be a terrorist or possibly try to rob you (or something... idk?). Labeling yourself as gay/straight/bisexual is the same way. There are some people who are so homophobic that they will do the same thing with gay/bisexual people (or even straight, metrosexual people). It is quite astonishing that the labels we apply to people create so much hate in the world, thus we should chose to not label ourselves, and most importantly, OTHERS! Instead of creating labels for oneself and others, one must accept and embrace personal traits as mere facts... and ONLY facts.
