[QUOTE]Originally posted by Karybu: [QB] Welcome to Scarleteen. :) First of all, I'd try and let go of the idea that just because everyone else seems to be into dating, you should be too. (And I guarantee that not everyone is, although I know it's really easy to feel like the odd one out with things like this.) There's also no need to figure any of this out rightthisverysecond - while some people know very early on, pretty solidly, who they're attracted to and what their orientation is, for other people it takes years and can often shift over time. There's often no "aha!" moment, but a process of getting to know yourself over years. For right now, the best thing you can do is just go with the flow and try not to stress about all of this too much. It may be that you haven't met that first person yet who will make you go all weak in the knees, or it may be that sexual/romantic attraction isn't going to play a huge part in your life, but either way, it's perfectly fine. For what it's worth, I didn't find myself really strongly attracted to anyone until I was about 17. Hope that helps at least a little bit; I'm sure others will have some things to add but there's something to get you started at least. [/QB][/QUOTE]
