Is it normal to be confused over sexuality?

Is it normal to be this confused? All I've known is loving guys or thinking I'm in love with a guy. But I don't really know anymore. I've considered experimenting when my parents ship me off to collage, but is it worth it? I have a boyfriend, and he's great, but certain things make me wonder. I love to write stories. Ones that I allow no one to see. But latley I've been writing ones aoubt girls. Like same sex couples. And they've been getting rather vivid. Am I hiding behinde boys? So I need help. Am I gay/bi?

Is It Normal?

  • hey. first off, calm down! =) i was recently going through the same thing, and i came to the conclusion that i am bi. however, it may not be the same for you. you might be bi, but you could very easily just be curious, which i would say is pretty common. from you writing stories, i assume that you fantasize about girls? if you have recently started noticing that you notice and think about girls more, it could still be that you are juts very curious. curiosity can take over your emotions like that. trust me :p hope this helped! good luck, chica!

  • Relax. Enjoy. Do NOT get hung up over it. Experiment. Find out what you like. Do NOT worry about what others think or will think. YOU have to live your life, not them. True friends and loving family will love you and accept you, no matter your choice. You should consider experimenting. Try dating girls, even get the courage to try sexual adventures with them. You'll find a LOT of willing partners to adventure with you. You may find you really want a relationship with a guy, but love sex with a girl. Or, you may find you like girls. Experiment, enjoy, relax. In the end, be yourself, be happy, do NOT let others chose for you!!!!

  • Most people aren't on extreme sides of the sexuality spectrum, whether they admit it to themselves or anyone else or not. Most people aren't only straight and only gay. So you're probably somewhere in the middle. I wouldn't cheat on your bf, but thats your choice. Eventually you will really know if girls are your thing. If your writing such vivid stories, I would say yes, but thats just me. Doesn't matter either way though. Have fun experimenting!

    Oh and, just so you know, there is something called pan sexual (what I am) which means you dont love based on gender or appearance but personality. The person you love will become sexually attractive if their personality is right. Love based on the person, be it man, woman, both, or somewhere in between. Maybe you should look into it.

    Oh and, side note, I thought I was straight until 8th grade. 8th grade- bi curious. 9th grade- bi. 12th grade- pan sexual. See where life takes you, its okay to realize you've changed. Before high school I was CRAZY about boys. Still am. But I enjoy a womans body too. So I guess what I'm trying to say is... explore, its okay to change, and its not like you cant go back. Be free, and let your feelings guide you

  • You are normal. People in general are so hung up on labels (gay, straight, bi, etc) that they can't just relax and have fun. As long as you won't be beating yourself up over any religious or moral restrictions, I'd say experiment and let yourself have fun. Your boyfriend may actually be excited to explore with you. Humans are sexual beings, and that can come in many different forms. Don't worry about labels and what you are, or aren't. Just do what feels good! :)

  • Maybe ur just a vivid writer and enjoy writing about gay couples? And if ur struggling with it, the only person that can help you is you.

  • Its totally normal, you're just going through a phase that most people go though. Curiosity, rebellion, exploration etc. Some people find out they're bi others never take it any further. Possibly you may or may not experiment.

    Either way, stop worrying about it. When the time is right you will either take the opportunity or not. As you can see from my comments, there is just no way to tell at this point. So best you just get on with your life and see what happens (thats the fun bit!)

  • yeah i would say that the fact that you are writing about girls in your stories is that you are just curious about it and perhaps want to explore it and by writing it you can do both.
    are you attracted girls? Remember thereis a difference between someone being hot and them being attractive.
    It's pretty common for people to wonder about their sexuality at certain point sbecause yes they are curious.
    Regardless in the following years if you end up being bi or whatnot then it's all good. You are still you.
