Of course! It's always ok to date someone we're attracted to if they make us feel good and they treat you right. You can figure out your sexuality as things develop, but in the meantime, you have no reason to let go of this chance to be happy with a person you like. You might find out that you're attracted to more genders than you thought, but whether it's true or not is something you'll find out with time. Just follow your heart and see where it leads you. There's always time to rethink your label, if it will feel like the right thing.

How do I know if I'm bi? Is it 'enough' that I can imagine being with a woman (I'm a woman) and that I would like to try it? I never had a crush on a woman so far.

I'm having trouble with my sexuality. It's becoming more and more apparent that I don't really like to have sex...but I still experience sexual attraction. Am I asexual? Is there another term?
