I'm asexual and I've come to term with it not too long ago (maybe like last year?). I've always felt like I'm different from other people - I look at "supposedly" attractive people and I don't feel anything. Yes, I do know when someone is good-looking and I do appreciate their beauty, but that's just that. No feelings, no attraction, no desire, no ...... 3 reply
I am asexual and aromantic, so I can tell you you don't need to fall in love to know your sexual orientation...
I understood it when I realized I wasn't interested romantically in other people (rather, it was some kind of possessive friendship, probably due to my lack of friends - I had around 10 at that time), and I didn't want to have sex either...... 4 reply
It's pretty funny actually. I've been engaged in sexual activity since I was 7, and it was with both boys and girls. I didn't realize that though, not until last year. I had my first girl crush/girlfriend then, and I realized that finally, this whole I haven't been straight. I tried to deny being into girls so much and without realizing it I had al...... reply
I didn't realize I wasn't straight until like 1 year ago.

I've never dated anyone although I knew I was queer before I ever got a crush on a girl. I don't think you need to feel an infatuation with a person to know you're not straight , although maybe small crushes that at the time you didn't know were crushes could occur. ╮(￣▽￣)╭ reply
I personally have never been in love with someone. I've had sex with people but not love. I suspected I was bi a long time ago but I didn't allow myself to contemplate it seriously because my family is extremely homophobic. When I eventually accepted it, I hadn't had sex with a female yet. I knew I was bi because I found women attractive. I could s...... reply

all seriousness though I believe I realized when I saw a picture of a female reproductive organ and went "wow uhhhh no thanks" they seriously freak me out I'm not over exaggerating either. reply
I don't actually really know what made me realise I was bi because at that point I hadn't had a female crush before (i'm a girl), but I think I just realised that a straight girl wasn't supposed to be turned on by another girl reply
I get really defensive about my heterosexuality when I was younger and was afraid to read yuri/shoujo ai back then because mostly I knew I wasn't that straight but I was deeply in denial. I used to have crushes on both girls and boys, the difference is I tell my friends about my guy crush but keep the secret about the girl I have a crush on. You d...... reply
