Its very normal for people to develop crushes on people of the same sex in teenage years. With your body developing your hormones will be going crazy. You may or may not be bi but I doubt you can tell properly at your age. You can see if you grow out of your crushes on guys but if you dont then I think you could be bi.Dont worry.Hope everything works out ok :)

The 'faggot' label, once acquired, is very hard to shake off and is likely to mean you have a very hard time of it in school.
It sound like you're bi. Lucky you, best of both worlds. Just try to be as discreet as you can when it comes to the gay side of things. I'm not saying this because it's anything to be ashamed of, but just for your own sake. I wouldn't want anyone to go through the sort of bullying I had to contend with at school. In a few years' time, your peer group will have grown up a bit, and they won't be as homophobic.
Best of luck

You could be bi, or it might be just a phase, or even just curiosity. I would say give it more time first, and see how your feelings mature and develop. There is no rush to label your sexuality, and really, that's all it is, a label, a name. So try not to worry too much about it, I think that as you get older, your sexual orientation will become more apparent. x
