i’m questioning whether i’m bi or lesbian, what do you guys think?

i’ve been thinking about my sexuality a lot recently and i feel really confused. i’m 16, and i’ve been questioning this for a while.

when i was around 12, i actually thought i was bisexual. i remember thinking i liked both boys and girls, and i even had a crush on my best friend, who is a really pretty girl. at the time, i didn’t really think too deeply about it, but now that i’m older, i’ve started looking back at it and wondering if that was actually my first crush on a girl.

when i was around 13-14, i became really attracted to very feminine and pretty guys. i like guys with long hair, who are skinny, have softer features, dyed hair, and generally look more feminine. but lately i’ve been wondering if i actually like guys themselves, or if i’m mainly attracted to femininity. i honestly don’t know if i’d be attracted to a guy with short hair who looked very masculine… probably not

more recently, i’ve started realizing that i definitely find girls attractive, especially feminine girls. mazzy joya was kind of an awakening for me because i realized i didn’t just think she was pretty. i actually thought, “i would date her.” i can genuinely imagine myself having a girlfriend, kissing a girl, and even marrying a girl, and the idea makes me really happy.

i’d rather kiss a girl than a guy, and i’m much more comfortable around girls. when i imagine being married to a girl, i can actually picture myself being happy and having her as my best friend and girlfriend. when i imagine marrying a guy, i honestly feel pretty unsure about it.

the confusing part is that i have liked guys before, and i thought i was bisexual when i was 12, so i don’t know if that means i’m bisexual, or if i was mostly attracted to feminine guys and i’m actually a lesbian. i also don’t know if i’m just overthinking everything because i’m still figuring myself out.

i know nobody here can tell me my sexuality for sure, and i’m not expecting that. i just want to hear from people who have had similar experiences and what you think based on what i’ve described. do you think i could be bi, lesbian, or something else?
