I think hormones only really account for sexual attraction. Romantic attraction is more mental, for lack of a better term. Your hormones are to do with your body, your body wants sexual experience, your brain may or may not agree with it, but I think romantic attraction is on a different level, separate from sexual attraction.

It’s hard to say whether or not things are phases, they do happen no doubt, usually during puberty so when you ask yourself if it is a phase, remember that phases are SHORT periods of time.

You may just be bisexual. Many people don’t figure it out until their late teens, or even later. Bisexuality doesn’t mean that you’re equally attracted to boys and girls either, it can be mostly girls or mostly boys, sometimes it can be only girls for a little while. Sexuality is fluid and it can change all the time. It’s important to remember to be open to it and just go with it.

Even if it is a phase, it doesn’t mean what you’re feeling isn’t real. Everything you feel is real and valid. If you in a few years figure out you’re definitely bisexual, these feelings were real. If you in a few years figure out you’re straight, these feelings are still real.

I hope this helps.
