Idek what I am. I can fall in love with girls, but I dont wanna have sex with them. I'm attracted to guys a lot emotionally and physically. I haven't told anyone though, because I don't know what I am. Am I bi?

Have you ever had sex with a girl? Because I had this mindset too until I did, and it was BANGIN. I'd say your bi-curious.
Though, unlike you, I'm only attracted to guys physically. No relationship stuff.

Yes, I've had sex with a girl plenty of times. Of course it feels good, but still. Sometimes it took me a while to get it up, and sometimes I thought it was disgusting to kiss her in her mouth. 
I've never had a relationship or talked to a guy though. I've known that I'd like to be with a guy and attached emotionally though.

I'm in the closet and I agree, I find it when you're "in the closet" after college, it's really weird (as I am in the situation), especially when you are the "obvious gay" (like me  ), it's harder.
I have the high voice and naturally I have a lot of hand movements, and even though you can tell that I'm gay, when people ask me I don't "deny" it, but I change the subject. I started confirming to people if they ask me if I'm gay, but only to workers because they don't know my friends, and so far I've felt a little bit better that some people in the world "knows" that I'm gay and I don't have to hide it.

I'm never gonna come out fully. I'm not out to any of my family because they will disown me so that's not happening at all in my life. Most of my friends know though. Tbh I get more flack from fellow gays about being bi than I do from any of my friends.

I think that's how a lot of people start coming out. It's easier to tell someone you don't have too much of a connection with. You'll eventually get more comfortable with it and tell more of your close friends. I don't think you should feel weird for being out of college in the closet though. Why should you? I've been with a few older "straight" businessmen who haven't come out to their peers yet, and just enjoy men in secret. You're not alone sis I'm sure there's plenty.

Lies.
I'm sort of in the closet. My mom, two of my cousins, and my close friends know. My dad, siblings, and rest of my fam don't know yet. Everyone assumes I'm straight when they meet me at school or work so I don't bother telling them off the bat. I'd rather have them ask me.

I'm bi, and I've only told like two people I know in person.
I was actually thinking about this least night and I'm trying to get myself to come to the terms with the fact that I'm going to have to tell my family first thing next year. I want next year to be a good year for me (my final year of college - it's different for Australia, I'm only 17, so I think that's still High School in the US), and once that's off my chest I think I'll feel a lot better. I don't think that the whole, "I'm bi so I don't have to come out," thing is a very good idea to have.
Anyway, I personally think that they probably already have their suspicions, but it'll be best if I just say it how it is and get it over and done with. Once my immediate family know, I'll probably start telling select friends, and then just go from there. I don't want to be one of those needy people who just post a message on Facebook and get all of the praise like it's something to be proud of.

I hate those queens that don't believe in bisexuality
You tell someone you're bi and it's like,
"O,
this closet bottom"
