Thread Topic: I'm confused on my sexuality.

Like, I'm dating this amazing girl. She's i don't even know how to explain it. She's the reason for my smile basically. She's the reason why I'm trying to stay clean from cutting. She's just like whoa. She's my everything and I hope I get to spend the rest of my life with her.
Buttt. Right now I define myself as bisexual. But I'm not sure if I am. I mean, I'm attracted to guys, but the thought of being with one makes me feel weird. But with girls, with my girlfriend it's different. The thought if kissing her gives me butterflies. The thought of holding her hand, hugging her makes me feel extremely happy.
Help?
I don't really like labels but yeah, I kind of want to know 'what I am'. I'm not leaving my girl for anything or anyone but I've had this question for a long time.
Oh, and I'm a girl for those who don't know me. -
um.. lets see if i can make a word for this...
sembisexual.
the sem is for semi (for half) and bi (for both) and sexual for... sexual. i think this fits well enough. -
ru a guy or girl

Honestly dude, I'm the same way. I'm bi but I can't imagine being with a guy. Society teaches us to construct ourselves as purely heterosexual and I've done a pretty good job of tricking myself into that up until very recently, even though the signs were always there. I don't know what kind of advice to offer you because I don't see myself being open about my sexuality for a very long time, maybe not ever. But you need to make peace one way or another or else you'll just go back to cutting and abusing again. I know your girlfriend is helping you not do that but you need to be strong for yourself, not for her. At your age I wouldn't count on her always being there.
Good luck. I hope that I've helped you in some way.
