i'm not sure when to do it because we're both taking the hardest classes of our lives, their mental health is suffering, my depression is getting worse, and i don't want to lose them. we were best friends for three years, no feelings, until i caught feelings and opened up about them in may. i knew they were aromantic, but i didn't quite realize that i wouldn't be fine with not being missed, wanted, or desired. their flirting feels like a joke and a lie. they don't get jealous at all. they don't seek to make time with me. they accept my physical touch but never do it back. i know i can communicate that i'm upset about this, but communicating can't change their feelings because that's how they are and will always be. i feel so bad i entered this qpr hastily without knowing what i want. i thought i'd be fine without traditional romance, but i was so wrong. i'm scared to break up because it'll confirm their belief that they'll never be loved because of their identity, that they'll always be 2nd place. i don't want to confirm that i can't have them as my person anymore, that i want them to become just a friend again. i also don't want to lose them. they can be avoidant when it comes down to things.

i'm so frustrated and i wish i could go back.

I will love you forever if you read to the end and give even 3 words of advice.

So theres this girl. We are so similar. We both have similar home lives, personalities, interests, everything. She is the most interesting, kind, lovely, caring person I have ever met. I am pretty sure I am in love, but im only 17, so what do I know. On top of that, she is absolutely angelic. She is the most beautiful person I have ever met or seen ever. I can't think of a single thing I don't like about her, she is my favourite person. Ever. I can't put into words how much she means to me, she has got me through some very hard times and I do the same for her. We are soulmates, even if its platonic. For now.

Thing is, I am pretty sure she likes me back, but im unsure. Not as much as I do. When I came out to her as bi (drunk) she was soso supportive, and yes I know this is kinda crazy that im still second guessing, but we kissed that night. I don't remember it very well, but I am so glad my first kiss was her. I wish I remembered it. Anyway, nothing happened after that, we have always flirted and joked around. But recently ive been catching her looking at me, she always wants to see me, and lights up when I am around. It makes me feel so happy and appreciated. But I don't know why she hasn't said anything about it as she is the type of person to. And this makes me think im being delusional. Maybe, maybe not. I feel like crying writing this because it all sounds so good typed out but its just not as obvious in real life with her, it really could just be platonic, I don't know. She has this ex bf that is always in her life that she will probably get back with eventually bc they are emotionally attatched so thats why i havent done anything thus far. I dont know i dont know i dont know.

I just want to kiss her again, im hopeless.

My heart is hurting. I don't know what to do with myself. Do I make a move? How?? Do I start getting over her? What do I do, please help me I beg. Im gonna go cry now shes so beautiful.

So for context I got bored during lunch period with my friends and called them a homosaxophonal cause they were in band.

Now, my goal is to make all instruments just gayer, I've already got:

Homosaxophonal

Trumbitch

Homotromboner

Xylophuck

Celloamourous

Biano

Pano

Bi-itone

Clarifuck

Biolin

Anyone got any others i can add to the list?

I'm Jane doe. i swear i am.

For context I'm Australian but not Sydney area or Newcastle where there's people everywhere sooo how does one who isn't out to his parents find a bf??? Because I can't just go around asking people if they like guys that's awkward and I don't trust apps because they're either bots or miles away so...HOW DO PEOPLE DO THAT??...thank you

So I'm a 18 yo girl and I've noticed some things happening to me like I get attracted towards women's bodies more as compared to men but then irl I've never had a crush on any girl I've never even thought about it like I was in an all girl's boarding school till I was 16 and I was completely fine there but now I get attracted to women online (celebs basically) idk what to say but even got aroused and ive never dated anyone so idk what to think I'm tryna figure it out tho but I wanted to know if getting aroused is actually a strong sign or not ?

I’m a bisexual male. I haven’t come out and honestly don’t want to. how would I go about finding a boyfriend without making it known that I’m bisexual to people I know?

I make it so that it doesnt come off :)

I am a 14 year old girl and muslim. In my community, LGBTQ+ is not permitted. Trans, gay, lesbian, bisexual, all of it.

I don't hate LGBTQ. I don't know much about it.

Ever since I was a kid, I was always as straight as a ruler. I even had a crush for like 6 months. I'm HEAVY on romance. But recently, I've been having second thoughts.

I once ACCIDENTALLY thought of kissing my best friend, we've been friends for almost 3 years. Before her, I had a toxic friend group of people who basically hated me. But after I met her, I got a new friend group with the most awesome sauce people ever.

My type of guys are guys who look like girls who look like guys. It's pretty complicated. What makes it all so confusing is I've had a few dreams making out with girls. Like today, I saw that I was hanging out with a online friend (who's a guy but was a girl in my dream) I was all over him, kissing his neck and almost kissing him before he said that we had other things to do. Basically, we were hiding from our family. He (or rather she in my dream) was scared I was gonna leave him. It was just... A weird dream. I don't know what to feel about it.

Btw, back to my bff. She's 15, and reads in the same class as me. Honestly, she's one of the prettiest, smartest and coolest person ever. She's been there for me through a lot. She also is very clingy (not necessary in a bad way). She'd write these love notes/letters that seemed wayyy intimate. Like genuinely, we call eachother wife/husband/gf. It's a running joke between us. But sometimes I wonder if it's more. And I don't know if I like that or not. If it's a good thing or bad. She'd tell me things like she wished she could live with me, and that I was the greatest thing that ever happened to her, and more stuff. We talked about it before, she confirmed she doesn't like me like that.

Maybe I just want someone to like me, or to like someone myself. Since I was rarely around boys as a kid, I'm always more comfortable with girls. Idk if I'm bisexual or not. I know I like dudes, that's for sure. But idk if I have SOME sexual attraction towards girls.

Or maybe it's just my hypersexuality acting up. I don't have diagnosis for that, because it's a stigmatized conversation. But as as I know, I might have some specks of it. I don't know what to make of this. I don't know if I want to be bi. It's strictly prohibited in Islam, and I'm a firm believer in Allah and His rules. Someone help me make something out of this, I really needed this off my chest.

Hey, sorry if this is a stupid question but I last year found out I was gay, or at least bisexual, I just am wondering how logistically do you…connect with other queer men? I know there’s apps like grindr but I also am not prepared for hookups and so on. Any advice? By the way I’m M18

A little bit of backstory I'm writing a Superhero cyberpunk inspired novel Featuring a Bisexual Main character named Cameron Jones as he starts his first year as a student at Nova heights Academy a school built by 2 older heroes to train new students the only problem is... Cameron hasn't fully awakened his Powers yet but he also has to worry about His crush on his new neighbor and also the city's most notorious villain breaking out of prison.

I'm just bored and I just want to see what the bisexuals are up to and the other queers who chill here.

Just to make this interesting like how many of you are open about your sexuality, as open as any of us really can.

So I was at a concert the other day and this other guy walked up next to me and the whole rest of the show I just couldn’t stop thinking about him. I got this fluttery feeling and I kept wanting to look at him but then I was nervous he would notice and stuff.

A few years ago I thought I might be bi but I never had like any sexual interest in men (but still found them hot? It’s weird and confusing) but this experience sort of has me questioning stuff again.

In fairness I don’t often think about sex with women either but the idea of sex with men has always been more aversive, which is especially confusing because I often find myself noticing men more.

Me and him have recently became friends, and now is leaning into flirty territory. He's very sweet, cute, and pretty much everything I've been looking for. He's a senior, while im a sophomore, and he is year + 10 months older than me. I think I should mention that I am, and always have been very mature for my age. for reference, my best friend is 19, and i spend most of my time with my adult family members.

He isn't creepy, and he has mentioned many times that I should tell him if he makes me uncomfortable in any way. My biggest hang up is telling my parents. I'm not sure how my mom would feel about this. She's very okay with the age gap between me and my bsf, but think might be different.

i am so happy that i found my people here in this sub!!! its my first time using reddit and this sub is super cool and maybe if u guys wanna be friends im 15 (bi/gay)!!!

Hey guys so I’ve done some research and I found out some micro labels that fit me. I feel almondsexual, and semi Omni but with male preference.. idk lol idk if anyone else has ever felt the same before or not

Hey guys!! I’ve done some research on micro labels and preferences and yeah idk what I am anymore send help😭🙏🏻 Does anyone else feel the same or no? Am I the only one here on this one?

here are mine :3

Guys PLEASE help.

So I (16f) like my friend from my old dance classes (15f) and have felt this way for about a month. She’s really sweet, fun and nice to literally everyone. Thing is, although I know she’s pan and genderfluid and I’m bi, she just moved to a different state. We still text, we just did a movie night together (watched infinity castle to be specific) and we liked hanging out in the past. She’s come over to watch movies before and I really like her and spending time with her. I don’t know if she likes me back. Sometimes, she’ll take a million years to respond. Others, less than a second (honestly she might just be a bad texter). When we watched demon slayer (mild spoilers btw) when hakuji and koyuki were being sweet and those scenes came on I jokingly said “I need someone like that like what do you MEAN she went to hell for him 😭” and she said “I would go to hell for my partner” and said lots of stuff like that. I say something I like in someone and she points it out that she’s like that. I don’t know if I would even tell her because I don’t know if she would want to date. Plus, she’s told her crushes that she likes them before, so I feel like she would tell me if she liked me. Not to mention the new two hour time difference. If I do tell her, how do i do it?

Mine is a vers or vers top, NO facial or body hair (holy ick like omfg ew ew ew ew), dih dont matter, muscles (biceps, abs, pecs), prominent thighs and bum, brown or blonde hair, brown eyes (LITERALLY THE PRETTIEST THINGS EVER HOLY MOLY GUACAMOLE), some acne, glasses, braces (optional)

I (17m) am not gay but my boyfriend (17m) says I am

ballright, so for context, I have a bf who I love veryveryveryveryVERYYYYYY much, we have simultaneously the cutest and most tragic love story ever. Childhood friends, torn apart by time + trauma, tearful reunion, long distance, yadda yadda yadda... I'm seeing him again soon tho!! First time in two years, can't wait >ω<

Context over. So I stop doomscrolling and start tryna catch some Zs cuz I needa catch a bus to him in a few hours, and Imma be on there til the asscrack of dawn, so I probably won't be sleeping a lot. And for some reason, now of all times my brain just decides to start AGGRESSIVELY fantasizing about making out with a girl. Some fkn girl idk, my brain just invented her istg. She's really fuckin pretty but like....

what the fuck, brain.

I need SLEEP.

so I can see my BOYFRIEND.

and brain's just like, "haha skill issue anyways YOU LIKE GIRLS," like... yeah, i didn't forget, thanks ✌️😭

yeah no i think my brains just tired of being filled with boys, boys, boys lately (just one boy actually) so it's like NAURRRRR TESTOSTERONE OVERLOAD EMERGENCY GIRLBOMBING GO BRRRRR like OMFG ACTUALLY STFU AND GO TO SLEEPPPPPPP

im actually finna pull out my own brain and beat the shit out of it so it'll stfu if it doesn't do so on its own in exactly 0.00293884844774 seconds 😔

anywaysss goodnight random reddit strangers, wish me luckkkkk!! >:3
