• so i've kind of been struggling with the need to "come out" to my family/friends/myself, but it's just confusing because i'm not really entirely sure of what my feelings mean. the only thing i could say would be that i like girls too, but while that might make things more clear for people i know, it wouldn't really be sufficient for myself. as much as i try to avoid labels, i feel like i want to identify as something, and bisexual has just never seemed accurate. so i've been researching a lot, and found the terms "demisexual" and "biromantic". they sound complicated, but from what i can gather, "demisexual" means that you don't acquire a sexual attraction to someone until you develop an emotional connection with them, and "biromantic" means that you're capable of having romantic feelings for either gender. this fits me pretty well, and feel pretty good about it, even though it's not like i can tell anyone that because they won't know what the hell i'm talking about. but like, i can have crushes on people that i'm not close to, but i don't think about or want anything sexual with them. my primary way of being attracted to someone is emotional. i'm capable of physical attraction towards people i care about, but it comes secondary. i think all of that makes sense? now it's just the matter of figuring out what i can change the "straight but not" descriptor on my tumblr page to. or if i should just get rid of it. i really wish i could just stop caring about labels. but it's sort of like an identity, you know?
