    I'm not sure, it's been an eternal cicle of dobut for me
    when I was a kid I would constantly wonder why there where more cute or pretty girls than boys that I liked and at some point I started dobuting my sexuality, but since I'm the youngest sibling and my oldest is a complete dissaster there's this kind of "I have to be perfect" issue so I was in denial for years.

    I started trying to figure it out when I was like 13 or 14 I think

    I attracted to males since... forever. Tho most of those before age of 7/8 are retrospective realizations.

    Till age of 15, when I first time fall in love with a boy, I thought that attraction to boys were a phase.

    First started getting the idea I may of been Bi around 13-14 but buried it for a long time. Lots of unsuccessful relationships and even now at 24 I know I'm at least bi but still not 100% sure

    I knew I wasn't 100% straight since I was old enough to have any romantic feelings, but I officially came out to myself with my sexual orientation as a lesbian earlier this school year.

    I was 20 when I came out to myself as "not straight." Still figuring out the details.
