confused with sexuality🏳️🌈(please read)
I'm going to go back to when I was little. When I was younger I always idolized females. It was usually a teacher or a celebrity. I never had posters of boy bands, only female celebrities and I had fan pages for female "celebrities". Throughout middle school I always had crushes on guys and never on girls. I didn't think anything of it until the past two or so years. In 8th grade I became really depressed thinking about my sexuality because I was so confused. I didn't want to be gay or bi, I wanted to be straight. I think one of the main reasons I was so depressed was because I didn't have a good support system. Nobody at my middle school was apart of the LGBT community and that I guess scared me. Now that I'm in high school I am surrounded by supportive people who are either apart of the LGBT community or extremely supportive. Now that I am in a supportive environment, I am more comfortable and open to coming to terms with my sexuality. I want to quickly add I've only had one crush on a girl and I don't really know if it was a crush but I'm still going to say it was a crush. And in public I find myself attracted to "older" women(young adults, celebrities, etc.) However, I don't find myself sexually attracted to them or wanted to marry a woman when I am older. Though I am attracted(would you say I'm attracted?) to women, I am attracted to men. Especially college guys😍😍😂. I see myself marrying a man and being sexually attracted to them. (TMI but I think some helpful information: when I masturbate I can get off thinking about guys but I get easily distracted? I don't really know how to explain it)
I'm still trying to figure out if my feelings are valid. Since it is pride month I've really been thinking and want to start being more open, whether that is to myself or to others. I want to trying be who I am. I want to talk to my friend about how I am feeing because I know she would be incredibly supportive(she is gay) and she would probably be over the moon to hear this from me. I don't really know how to approach her or how to say it so if you had any ideas that would be great. I also want to know if my feelings are valid or not. I don't want to offend her or the LGBT community by labeling myself something I am not. As you can see I am unfamiliar with this community and would appreciate some help.
I know nobody can tell me if I am bi or not but I am curious to see if any of you had any advice OR had similar feelings.
Thank you for taking the time to read this:)
