I need help, am I bisexual or not?

Hello, I'm 17m and I've crushed on girls and been romantically attracted to them for as long as I can remember (since maybe 3 or 4 years old). As I got older they became less frequent (maybe one every 2 years) but also way more intense when they did happen. I'd lose sleep and miss meals for months over heartache, recently there was a girl I only had a short stint with but couldn't stop thinking about for a year after because I still liked her so much.

But the thing is I've never felt lust or erotic attraction for girls. Yet I have for guys.

Since the same age about I've been sexually attracted to guys. I remember looking around locked rooms when I was younger, and basically exclusively consumed gay porn from the time I had internet access. Never once did I feel that intense, adrenaline inducing thirst for lust that I felt with guys for girls. Yet I have no romantic or emotional attraction to guys. When I'd watch male stuff, I'd feel dirty and gross once I'd finished cause it was emotionally unfulfilling. It was detrimental to my mental health, and honestly felt more like a fetish, like a taboo than a healthy sexual attraction.

I find women physically attractive but not really in an erotic way, and I can get off to female porn but it's more so situationally, I'm not out thinking like that about random girls. When there's a girl a really like, I feel sexually attracted to her as in wanting to feel her body and make love to her, but it doesn't feel lustful, more so deeply emotional. When I'd imagine having sex with a girl I loved while finishing, although it didn't feel erotic, it feels fulfilling and enjoyable.

I actually have had gay sexual experiences and I hated them. It was adrenaline inducing and exciting but as soon as I finished I was horrified and realized I had no attraction to them and made me feel gross for days. It feels like a drug more than anything. I've never felt any sort of butterflies or the feelings I get when I'm around girls I like and have never wanted any sort of relationship with one. And I come from a super accepting family so I'm not having to suppress anything.

I hate what I've been cursed with. I feel like crying and I want to die knowing I'll never be able to have both feelings in a relationship like everyone else, let alone have a relationship at all. What girl would want a guy that literally fits the definition of homosexual, at least for the sexual aspect? I don't even wanna be with guys or watch gay stuff cause it makes me feel unwell, but I don't know what I'm gonna do. It's not like something a can pretend doesn't exist.

in an extremely extremely gay friendship

a few days ago i had a sleepover with a group of friends, and ended up being very uh… intimate (cuddling, cheek kisses, etc.) with a friend who i really like. we haven’t really said anything about actually liking each other and sort of brush everything off as a joke, but i’m like 99.999% sure he does like me back. the problem is, where do i go from here? we’re like nearly as physical as i was with my ex who i dated for like 9 months (ok that might be an exaggeration) and i don’t know if that means i should just shoot my shot and see what happens, or just continue… whatever this is. help.

So I tried something

This might not be the right subreddit for this, but whatever.

So when I was taking a shower, I brought one of my disposable razors with me, and I tried to see how it would feel shaving my legs, but just a tiny unnoticeable part of my leg when I got out of the shower, I felt the spot I had shaved, and it felt so nice and i felt alot better. I think I'm going to shave the rest of my legs, I don't think my parents will be mad but all my moms said against it is "it will grow back faster" but I don't know if I care.

Sorry to ask but am i Bi?

im 13m and i feel attraction to girls for sure i know i've had crushes ect, but i've also had this weird internal feeling that i could just be in a relationship with a guy and it feels weird. Like just imagining hugging, kissing, a male, but not like hyper masculine more leaning towards a more feminine type of person.

The good news is that all my friends would support me i was Bi which significantly improves my mental health. Because im in denial about myself being Bi, or anything like that.

Only attracted to androgyny?

I always knew I was bi yet I often went through bi-cycles and questioning because of my experiences with attraction towards the two genders. It confused me how I often didn’t feel that strongly attracted to either when it came down to it, all while being hypersexual.
Except recently I came to the conclusion that Im very strictly attracted to a specific thing, which is androgyny. When I imagine a man with a more “feminine” energy who often times resembles a girl, that’s the only time I can actually imagine myself wanting to be with one. And I dont mean like, a stereotypical gay looking man who dresses femininely, im talking about a preference for natural, physically feminine features and most importantly, emotional energy/soft masculinity is a requirement. I feel heavy discomfort around masculine presenting men in a romantic context which could be unrelated but yeah, Its like the best of both worlds, something about the ambiguity.

It’s the same for women, but theres a slightly less desire for it—If theyre feminine, I guess I could still make it work, but when It’s a girl with masculine features and characteristics, I lose it. I find it so hot when they dress masculine too. It’s like, the only thing that gets me and im wondering if anyone else feels this or why the hell im like this? I feel like its a very weird thing that caused me to be very confused about my feelings my whole life.

Please help

The picture of my cat obviously has nothing to do here.

Idk why, but I've been getting these fantasies urging me to try to be a woman or a more feminine man. Pretty much an identity exploration.

CAN I do it? Idk.

Do I actually WANT to?

Somehow, hell yeah.

Stuff that I need to do, should I try to fulfill them:

Significantly reduce body fat and work towards a leaner, more soft body

At least partially lighten the skin

Purge ALL body hair

Have a more feminine fashion

And everything else I forgot to add. Should I attempt this, I'll probably try to do HRT too; However, it's highkey impossible in Malaysia. Bitchass anti-LGBTQ laws.

Please help me figure it out 🙏😭

What Is My Identity

Hi everyone, I am new here and am really just looking for some insight on my situation. So I have been considering the idea that I might be bisexual. Here's what I know so far.

So I am certain that I am attracted to men as a woman, as my parents are homophobic, so I always just assumed heterosexuality as a default and never really questioned that attraction. My initial draw to men is also very sexually charged and less romantic but as time goes on it is a combination of both.

For women, I get like an initial jolt of excitement seeing someone attractive and feel like I could just look at them all day. So less sexual but more like I'm beguiled by them. The most invalidating part is that I have never actually had a crush on a woman. In fact, I've only really had 1 crush in my life that was more of a projection of ideas of that person than actual interaction with them. Meanwhile, I'm almost 20 and have never dated anyone, so I have no real experience to solidify any feelings that I might be having. There could also have been some influence from insecurities and internalized homophobia. I have some pretty big issues surrounding feeling accepted, and I feel like in a relationship, I would value a woman's opinion more than a man's, so maybe there is some self-rejection involved that has prevented me from pursuing that avenue.

So if anyone has any ideas for me about whether I'm bi or not or thinks maybe I'm taking the bi pipeline to somewhere else I would appreciate anything you have to offer.

MOTHER FOUND SOMETHING SHE SHOULDNT HAVE

I (17M) had work today and was quote tired when I got home, walked into my room and my room was clean(stuff was moved around and neatened). I started panicking, because I have some sex toys i dont want my mother finding as im not out yet. But I dont think she found them but Im pretty sure she found my jockstrap. Now I dont really have a jockstrap for gay purposes but more because I was like thats hot and of the summer I get quite hot so I was thinking maybe thatd help. Now im terrified as to where she's put them or what she's thinking. They're no longer under my bed.

Thought I had a chance

so there is this one dude (13m) I (also 13m) really like and he seemed to really like me back. I thought this might be my best shot and having a boyfriend and I thought about asking him out. but before I could i heard he had been dating this one girl for a week and he hadn’t said anything to me. worse part is I was out of the house when i heard about that and i kinda wanted to cry but I couldn’t and I just kinda suppressed it til the next day and I think that made it worse. I just needed to vent and I don’t really have any good friends at the moment. advice would be appreciated!
