Been mulling over this for a while but, think I actually prefer girls more though, anybody got any advice about coming to terms with this? I'm only 17, but friends with a woman who's 27 and I'm infatuated with her!

When I was 17 I met a guy who was 29. We had a great time together and it was a very positive and growing experience for me. We are still friends today 25 years on.
It's very easy to become infatuated with anyone at any age, though that infatuation becomes less the more familiar we become with that person.
If you prefer girls, go with it. This is your life and you must be true to your feelings and don't let anyone else tell you what you should be doing. Be yourself. You are who you are. You have a whole lifetime ahead of you to have amazing experiences. Live every day as you. Live with love and passion.....always.

That might take you a long time to come to terms with,might not. Just live your life,the rest will fall in place. Don't let your sexuality turn your life into something you regret.I didn't come out until I was 35,and made alot of bad choices,and had bad marraiges because I let it ruin my life. Knowing what you like is half the battle. Good luck,nobody said life would be easy. Just have fun in whatever you do.Be careful,make certain you want to risk your friendship for more than friends. In some places it might be illegal since you're not 18 yet. I'd never advocate you do anything illegal.

Depending where in the world you are there may be bi support groups or LGBT support groups, including those specifically targeted at younger people, where you can find other people who've been in a similar situation and talk about it. Hit that websearch button up there with your town or city name and the words bisexual and support!
And/or try some good general bi support links like the "both directions" guide at www.bicommunitynews.co.uk

WOW that is not an easy decision. If you both are very close then I would tell her how I feel. I would think that because she is older she will not act immature about the situation. I would explain to her that you like her more than a friend but you don’t want to destroy the friendship by being honest and open with her. Either way it’s got to come out because it’s obviously something you need to get off your chest! I say go for it and if she really cares about you as a friend she would respect you for your honesty and she might even take it as a complement! :)
Good Luck!

First off, be careful about the 27 y/o, she could get in a lot of trouble and you could open yourself up to some emotional damage. As far as coming to terms with your sexuality, this may sound lame but, it is really as simple as being happy with who you are and not allowing anyone else to dictate to you what is right (or wrong) for you. It is your body, your life, live it how you want to.

I'm the same way, bisexual but more attracted to women. You are who you are, it's nothing to be ashamed of.
As for your friend, it may just be a crush; it's common for teens your age to have crushes on people alot older. If you do anything, be careful, ok? I'm not going to say she's too old for you or anything, as long as it's legal where you live and everything. Just beware that she may be looking for a more serious relationship than you're ready for (I'm talking commitment, not sex, just to clarify).
Good luck!

Labels labels labels why do we need them. Just do what you want to do as long as you don't harm anyone.
