I think I’m bi / pan, any advice or am I just thinking too much?

I’ve been thinking about myself a lot lately, and am unsure about my sexuality.. I am coming to the conclusion that I could be bi / pan. I’m slightly confused and am not sure who to talk to, please help! Any advice would be massively appreciated xx

Hey @Piper Swift

Welcome. We are here to talk this through with you and we can help. Can you tell me more about how you've come to the conclusion that your bi/pan? We can go from there.

Hi @Monsoon, Many of my friends are in the LGTBQ+ community, and I began to think about how I would feel if I was in a relationship with someone who was the same gender as me. I sometimes think I feel attracted to someone who is the same gender, but I’m not sure if that’s just me overthinking. I have talked to my friends about it and they have suggested that I may be bi-curious?

Hey there,

I'm wondering, the feelings you've been having towards people of the same gender, how do they compare to feelings you've had towards the opposite gender in the past in terms of a crush?

It seems like the same sort of thing, I don’t really get crushes that often so it’s quite hard to say…I have been thinking about how I would feel being in a relationship with someone the same gender as me and I don’t think I would mind. I’m just unsure if these are genuine feelings or my brain faking it, which happens from time-to-time (for me anyway.)

Hey there,

I think it's important to listen to your mind as it seems like these messages are coming through quite strongly; they sound genuine to me, but it's pretty common to doubt them when you're the one experiencing them. What do you think?
