How do I know if I'm gay, lesbian, or bisexual?

Labels are always complicated, you can feel attraction to anyone without feeling forced to take a label. Usually you start to notice that you're feeling attracted towards the same-sex (or both), slowly, or understand that you're attracted to different person than everyone around you. And that's perfectly normal, you have to allow yourself to love who you wants, there is nothing wrong with it :)

Figuring out your sexuality can be confusing. Just look at who you're currently attracted to and who you've been attracted to, and then find a term that feels right for you.

Sometimes you just know, other times it takes a bit of effort and experimentation. But it's important to remember not to rush yourself when trying to understand who you are as a person. Because you literally have a lifetime. Sexuality is an amazing thing. And it can't always be labeled by Gay, Lesbian, or Bisexual. Sometimes you don't need to label yourself. Sometimes you just need to like what you like and feel guiltless because that's who you are as a person. The most important thing is confidence. How do you know you're gay or lesbian or bisexual? You shouldn't worry about it. Because if the people around you love you for who you are, then it shouldn't be a problem. Love who you love. Be yourself.

By thinking about who you think about most, and who you have, or have gotten "butterflies" around can help distinguish attraction from more casual feelings.

You will always know yourself best, and you will find the right answers at the right time. Get to know your likes and dislikes about people. You will discover where your romantic interests lie.

you just kind of know, if you feel attracted to both genders then your bi but if you feel a certin way about one gender than you are gay

Well. the best thing to do is date around. Don't be mean about it, or get in a long term relationship at the same time. Just try and see if you are attracted to the same, other, or both sexes. All that straight, gay, lesbian, or bisexual mean is what gender you are attracted to.

Well first you should know the meanings of those words. Lesbians are females who are attracted to the same sex. Gays are males who are attracted to the same sex and bisexuals are people who are attracted to the opposite and to the same sex. So if you find your match in any of these, you have your answer.

It's all about butterflies in the stomach, really, you just need to look over your emotional responses to two genders, that is, only those you would've called hot, if you where into them. which ever makes you feel the butterflies, is your long searched for answer. :)

This one is tricky, because I really cannot tell that sort of thing for you. You have to think about yourself and your feelings, and think about your personal growth and preferences. It requires a lot of thinking, and it's exceedingly difficult, but only you can decide that for yourself. Remember, homosexuals are attracted to their own gender (gay/lesbian), and bisexuals (like myself) are attracted to two genders.
