Back to topic... My friends know, my parents do not. Which has just become quite difficult because I've been living with my parents and have no prospects of moving out anytime soon as my job/money situation is in the crapper with the economy... and I have met the most wonderful woman recently and been out on a couple dates with her and avoiding awkward questions is becoming increasingly difficult. I think the time to out myself is nearing. I'm just a bit nervous about it. I'm so reliant on them right now that I don't want it to go badly. Bleh.
That didn't answer your question. Don't worry right now about labeling yourself one way or the other. The confusion is totally natural. Some people are mostly attracted to one gender and then occasionally find them selves attracted to a person of another gender and that's completely common. ((studies have shown that the most vocal homophobic males are sexually aroused by photographs of male genitalia, so obviously everyone expresses their confusion in different ways ;) hahaha))
Anyway. Don't worry about your family just yet. Worry about how you feel. Do you want to date this woman? Then go for it! :)
