I’m a 17-year-old guy, and I’ve always identified as straight. Over the past couple of years, though, I’ve started checking out guys as well.

To be clear, I don't really feel sexually attracted to them in real life, meaning I wouldn't want to actually hook up or have sex with a guy. But watching a guy on his own, like je****g off, does turn me on a bit.

I’m definitely attracted to girls, but I’m really shy and have never been in a relationship. Because of that, my friends tease me and tell me I’m gay. I honestly don't know why, but they claim that anyone who looks at me would just assume I'm gay.

At this point, I don’t even know what I am anymore. Am I bisexual, or is this something else?

How am I a 1% poster all I do is talk about politicians i find hot

I'm bi and now in relationship with a gay man. He is kind to me and understands me, and I love him—but we only ever talk when I reach out first. Because of this, I feel like I’m begging for his attention; sometimes he won’t reply to my messages for 6–8 hours. I don’t need him to text me constantly or respond immediately, but it would mean a lot to me if he initiated the conversation at least occasionally. I’m hesitant to bring this up with him, though, because I’m afraid it might lead to the end of our relationship—and I don’t want to lose him. I don't want to look too demanding. Need your advice
