So How Did U Guys Find Out You Were LGBT? [Discussion]

When I was like 12, I was watching a show, and found myself taking a particular interest in one of the female characters (I don't remember who or what the show was). I brushed it off as nothing. I had always taken interest in the female characters. They were always my favourite.

Then the other (straight) girls in my class would talk about their crushes on dudes, and I realized I had never felt that way towards men at all.

I slowly began to realize that these feelings for fellow females weren't just platonic, but a lot of them romantic too.

Backing up a bit (maybe a year earlier?), I had convinced myself I had a crush on some dude in my class, not only to make myself feel normal, but also because the girls wouldn't stop asking if I liked any of the guys.

Because of this I thought I was bi for a long time, before I realized I totally wasn't. I'm a lesbian 100%. Also, probably graysexual, but I'm still trying to figure that whole part out.
