me too biba, when i was 12ish :( i didn't even believe in god but i would pray that i was straight all the time. i'm severely emetophobic and remember telling myself "i would rather vomit"
i'm glad that i've made more peace with myself and hope you have too <3
i think i first worried about it at 16, but then i read something that said "don't worry, you probably just get aroused looking at women probably just because women are oversexualized in our culture" and was like "oh, whew"
first time i consciously thought it was when i was in 6th grade
when i was sure... that's harder. it took a very, very long time and was very gradual. i can't really put a set moment on when i was sure. there was a very long period of time where i was out to a couple of people, but still tried to convince myself that i was just lying
once i got to college i came out completely and just slowly started becoming more comfortable with letting myself show the attraction i had for women

and then i went out on some dates w/ a lady and i was like "ok this feels natural i guess i'm for real bi"
and then some dates with dudes
but the sex was really unfulfilling and i didn't like touching them
so i went from tentatively bisexual to identifying as fully les
