Hi @uncaged 

Sexuality can be really confusing and it’s perfectly normal for it to change and develop overtime especially when you’re young. That’s not to say that your experiences are less real or anything. More so that uncertainty can be more common. I know people like labels (I do to) as it can make things easier, but most people don’t really fit into neat little boxes. It can be so overwhelming trying to work out where you fit in, but I have no doubt that you’ll be able to figure it out in time. Be patient with yourself and remember there’s nothing wrong with changing your identity as many times as it takes to feel right.

I found it helpful to watch a wide range of YouTube videos and even documentaries to hear about people’s experiences of sexuality and to learn about what it felt like for them to be LGBT+. It helped me to look at my experiences to see if they aligned or not. It’s perfectly alright if it’s “just a phase” and it’s perfectly alright if it’s not. Try whatever you want and see what you like. You have plenty of time to work it out.

Best of luck!
