I do that too!! My grandparents especially ask me that allll the time. And there's actually a label for that—the "Q" in LGBTQ stands for "questioning". Another word you can use is Sapphic, which just means you're a woman who likes other women, but doesn't mean you can't also like men (just like Sappho herself might have done).
Anyway, it's perfectly normal to not come out to someone if you're not comfortable. It's a common gay experience to have people assume you're straight.
I believe that the "Q" in LGBTQ means queer, not questioning.. LGBT doesn't include sexualities or genders such as agender, genderfluid, asexual, demisexual, and way more.
Being agender is not identifying as a gender whatsoever, partially like asexual individuals who are not attracted to any gender. The prefix a-, in this case, means not. People with this gender tend to use the they/them pronouns
Genderfluid is a gender that don't identify as a fixed gender. These people might end up feeling like a girl one day, but a guy the next.
IIN I go along with pretending I'm straight ?
