Does this make me bisexual....?

Ok so I'm 17, and graduating high school this year and I'm a little confused right now...

I always thought I was straight and the thought of being anything more than friends with another girl was sickening to me (I'm not against anything other than heterosexuality in the slightest, btw) I just couldn't imagine myself like that.

But now, I've been so conflicted in that now..I wouldn't mind being in a relationship with a girl...

Only, I can only imagine cuddling, kissing, like simple stuff. The thought of Having sex with a girl is out of the question (at least right now)

Does not wanting to have sex with but being okay with a relationship make me bisexual? Or would I have to be willing to go further with her?

I'm all for girl on guy sex but not so comfortable with girl on girl...my attraction to guys is much bigger than to girls but if I found someone I really liked and she liked me...I would be okay being her girlfriend...

These thought have been nagging me the last week, but I'm so confused. I feel like people will say I'm not bisexual if I come out as one because I'm not willing to touch and have sex with another girl but am okay with all that with a guy...

Am I overthinking? I'm probably rushing this as well and should wait and experiment but I dunno...

Help?

Nothing rude or anything..thanks

    Well, firstly, it really depends if you are talking about a particular girl or not. If you have these thoughts about someone you know, then it might just be a connection with that female, and it doesn't have to determine your sexuality.

    On the other hand, if you think of girls generally, them it might mean something.

    Now,there are 2 types of attraction. Romantic and sexual. Romantic attraction is something like an emotional connection, on a romantic level, and sexual is, well, physical and sexual attraction.

    You might be biromantic heterosexual.

    But, give it time.

    I myself a couple years ago I thought the same, I wanted to be on a romantic level with a girl, nothing sexual, and I couldn't ever imagine marrying a girl.

    Turns out I just didn't accept myself, because about 1,5 year ago I came out to my close friends as a homosexual female.

    You are probably not gay, because you still do have attraction to males. But be open and accept yourself,and see how it goes. Wish you luck.x
