Most importantly if you are still questioning if you are gay I wouldn't just come out and say it unless u are positive.

I can tell you in my own experience that I did not "come out" until I was in college and away from my parents.Your parents may or may not be okay with this, so keep in mind the following:1) Parents are financial supporters, and if they disapprove of you being gay, they may cut you off your cash flow, and kick you out of the house * I know a kid who got the boot2) Coming out is just as political, because people talk. I waited for a long time when nobody could really care if I was gay or wasn't, and my mom outed me at 19.3) Try to fit in as best as you can until you do decide to come out. It's unfair, but gay people suffer discrimination. Don't come out until you're ready to face consequences.4) Remember God loves you. And if this boy might like you, too, maybe there would be something that could come out of this.

At your age i reckon they might just bully you to peices. So wait until peers will accept it better (around 17 and 18 is ussually fine). human nature is to do with biology and environment but also developmental stages. These stages affect our attitudes and puberty affects attitudes to sex. it causes anti gay feeling as sexual boudaries are being learnt so need hyper clear definition. deviation is frowned on. this isn't so in a couple of years when people give less of a shit, and have bigger worries.
good luck
(i turned out fine)

However, I would advise you to tread carefully. The world in general can be a bit homophobic, and especially with people your age---if you tell this guy you like him and he's straight, there's a chance that rumors will start to fly and it could be bad.
My suggestion is to relax. You're young and still trying to find yourself. If you really are gay, it's nothing to be upset over. Be happy and secure with yourself.

Take care

Nearly all teenagers go through an 'am I gay?' phase - I know I did! The best thing to do is wait and see if you continue to feel this way. There's nothing wrong with being gay anyway, but if you aren't and you tell this boy that you like them, then it can be even more awkward. Just wait and see at first, then, once you are sure, try telling your closest friends. Whatever you do, don't tell the guy you fancy on an impulse. Give it time, and you should know what to do.
