I think I'm bi but not sure if thats bisexual or biromantic. I have had crushes on people but where I just want to hug them and hold their hand, kiss them, etc. and I'm not sure if that counts as being sexually attracted to them. I'm only 13 so I don't really know much and haven't experienced anything sexual because I'm under 16 but I'm educated and not sure if I would ever want to experience it. Does this make me Asexual?

Omg hi @Mini Bi! I know this is months after you posted, but I literally feel like we're the exact same person right now. I'm about to turn 14, and I have found both girls and boys physically attractive, but nothing more than that. Maybe since I'm so young, and I have yet to experience sexual attraction, or maybe, I'm simply a biromantic asexual.
Like @Izzy @Izzy (sorry idk which one) said, I don't have any answers for you, but to know that someone else is in the same boat as me feels extremely validating. Would love it if either of you responded to hear more about this!
side note: of course you don't have to respond if you don't want :)
@Mini Bi Hi I'm going through literally the same exact thing as you right now! I've already came out as pansexual, but.... I think I'm also asexual which is VERY confusing. I've never had any sexual feelings before but I'm extremely young (under 14) so is that just because I'm a kid and don't think about these things?
Anyways I don't have an answer for you, but I just wanted to thank you because you made me feel real and valid and like this wasn't all in my head so thank you! <3

hi ! I identify as ace myself and this is something that is very confusing to me as well, something that personally helped me figure this out is trying to see if I could think of anyone that would make me think or that ever made me think I'd like doing sexual things with... it made me realise that I don't feel that at the moment. also, know that it's perfectly fine if identifying as asexual or bisexual feels right for you now and later it doesn't, your sexuality and the labels you chose to describe it can totally change ! I think it can be great that you're questioning your sexuality so young, because it gives you a lot of time to observe what you feel and see what feels right for you. it's ok not to know, and it's ok to experiment and change your mind !
you have to allow yourself time. it feels different for everyone and may come at different stages. i never even had any sort of crush on anyone until i was fourteen so it is entirely up to you and how you feel and you certainly do not need to know 100% just now. you'll figure it out <33
