Is it nornal to be straight but like a girl?

I consider myself a straight girl, but a few years ago I had the biggest crush on another girl in my theatre group. I'd never actually had a crush on a girl before, but it was the first time I had a crush on someone but could actually tell them comfortably and actually flirt comfortably with them. With boys there's a lot of anxiety involved.

It was also the first time it physically hurt to see a crush kiss someone else. I could feel my stomach drop the way it does in books, and I couldn't watch. I'd never felt that pain from a boy I liked.

I still like her and it still hurts to think about her, and when I see girls that remind me of her I feel weird.

Is it normal to feel like this about one girl, even though I find myself attracted to guys?

Does it mean I'm gay or bisexual? I've thought it over before, but none of it seems to make any sense to me.

    I can't imagine why anyone voted this as Not Normal: it's completely normal and probably means you're bi, like most of us if we admit it

    I am also straight, and in a healthy relationship, but I've always said if Nelly from the Unfaithful movies came on to me I would do whatever she wanted... So I guess there is a little bi in most of us.

    Did you actually love her, or did you just strongly admire her?

      I think I just strongly admired her, but way more than I've admired any guy I'd ever liked or been involved with.

    Crushes happen. You're basically straight.

    "I consider myself a straight girl." Maybe you should rethink and reconsider that.

      See, that's the thing. I've always considered myself a straight girl and I like tons of guys but it's this one girl who's been at the back of my mind for the last two years. Just her. Is it actual homosexual feelings, or just one of those infatuations that don't make sense
