Counselor Response
Harboring feelings for members of the same sex are not only common in teenagers your age, but they often have nothing to do with the actual outcome of a teens sexual orientation later in life. Teens at your age sometimes "experiment" sexually with members of the same sex. Even those who enjoy this often lead healthy heterosexual lives. This is not to say that you aren't bisexual. At your age, I wouldn't rush into making a decision and labeling yourself either "bisexual", "heterosexual", or whatever else you could decide. At this point in time, like many other teens, you are simply, "curious". Don't deny yourself of any feelings you might have towards either sex, and remain a healthy outlook on all sexual orientations. That way, you won't need to ask if you are bisexual, you will know inside that you feel strongly for members of both sexes.
