I was actually wondering if anyone felt confused or strange when they discovered they were demisexual. I just figured out today that I was Demiheterosexual (Demisexual and heterosexual), but I don't understand why I feel confused well more like strange. I've never actually felt this way about my sexuality before...

I thought I was gay for years but I didn't understand why I liked girls romantically, but never wanted to sleep with them. I had a couple crushes but they were strictly romantic, not sexual. I thought I was just the odd person out because my friends were in relationships or knew what they liked and I...didn't.
It wasn't until I met a good friend a couple years ago, just after I turned 20. During the first summer I knew her, we became good friends, and I liked her as a person. By September, she was headed off to college and we stayed in touch. I thought she was flirting with me, and I developed greater feelings for her. When the next summer came, I liked her in a sexual way. I had never wanted to sleep with someone, and after I lost contact with her, I haven't had that feeling for anyone else.
I am still confused about my sexuality. I tell people that "I am gay" or "I just don't want a relationship right now" because its easier for them to understand than "I don't have a bond with anyone who I want to be in a relationship with".

I understand, but now I'm leaving the whole Demisexaul thing. I don't know why. It just doesn't fit with me now. I'm pretty sure I'm Asexual or something. Or I'm just a really shy person (lol I hope this makes since).

Totally. Love and sexuality are fluid. I've often wondered if my shyness is a part of it as well.
