TEEN QUESTION/PROBLEM:
I don't know if I'm bi sexual or a lesbian. I like to kiss girls but I also like to kiss guys. I find them both attractive. I'm really confused and I don't know what to do. Apart of me is kinda scared to be a lesbian but I don't want to lie to myself either. There are qualities I like in guys that girls don't have but there also qualities I like in girls that guys don't have.I just need some advice. I want to know, what should do?
