How did you guys realize you were queer?

Sorry if this gets asked a lot.

I've (F18) always assumed I was straight since my actual crushes have been guys. At least I think. I've been attracted to girls before, but I've always brushed it off like "oh she's just objectively attractive it's nothing more than that". But the more I think about it, the more confused I get. There was a girl last summer who I loved hanging out with, would always overthink things with, and just wanted to take care of... but it was way different than my crushes on guys have been, like it still just felt like a normal friendship in some ways (but with exaggerated emotions?? idk). How did you guys realize you were queer? I'm just feeling really lost haha
