I used to think I was straight. But now I've been noticing that I've been attracted to the same sex and think I might be bi.
I've taken tests ((not that the stereotypical ones of the 30ish ive taken matter all that much)) and only one said I was straight. The rest ((one by a bisexual person themselves)) said i was bi.
I'm so effin confused.
Please help me...
Peace love empathy.

The important thing is to be happy with yourself.
Then when you meet someone you want to be with you can be honest with yourself and your partner(s) and be happy together.

Tests won't really tell you if you'll be attracted to someone. They can tell you your habit, behavioral patterns and personal preferences, but when you meet someone and the chemistry is right, everything can change

A lot of people worry about what label their supposed to be but the ones that I think are important are "you" and "happy"

Ok, in my own unprofessional opinion, it doesn't matter what your label is; not to yourself, at least. The real trouble lies in all those other people. The world demands a label, and it probably won't ever change. At this point though work things out in your head. Ignore the stigmas and stereotypes and think about you and how you feel about the world around you. No test, not even from someone who's bi, can tell you who you are. Work it out in your head, talk to people you feel safe with, and don't make a hasty determination. In the end, if you're bi you're bi. Big freaking whoop. If someone tells you this completely changes your life, then they're too wrapped up in the world of appearances. This doesn't wholly define you. You are a complex person, and this is only a small part of you.

One thing to remember is to just be happy with who you are.
Remember, your sexual orientation doesn't define who you are, it's but just a single part of something bigger which makes whole.

But don't classify yourself by tests. Look inside yourself, only you can tell you who you are, not anybody else.

As for coming out, I can't help you there. I'm kinda struggling on that part myself right now.

Just remember, you are still you. You're just discovering something new about yourself.

First off, dont let your sexuality define you.
Second, you cant rely on quizzes to decide who you are.
Only you can truly find out who you are.

As I always say, dont be so rushed to discover who you are.
Just live your life, and do what feels right.
Sooner or later, it'll just... click.
And most of all, love yourself, no matter the people you choose to be with.

Well I can tell you one thing, tests aren't going to help. You have to find that answer within yourself. To be honest if you find yourself not only attracted but yearning to be with a girl in any way there's a good chance that your bisexual, or who knows you might even end up being a lesbian. -shrugs- only time and experience will tell.
