Advice for those confused about their orientation:
Well, it was harder for me, since I'm a complicated subcategory, (demiromantic-homoromantic/asexual) but I think of it this way. As for your romantic orientation anyways, that's really all I can help with: Think of a person, any gender, you're not sure if you like them. Can you imagine waking up every morning with them next to you? Can you imagine eating breakfast and watching movies and pecks on the cheek, for the rest or your life? Can you imagine coming home every day to them waiting for you, or waiting for them to come home? Say they're working on a laptop and you come and half hug them and give them a peck on the cheek and then they ask how your day was and you tell them. Can you imagine being happy with that? Can you imagine them feeling the same? If it's a yes, you like that person, at least romantically.

Love is when you care about someone. You meet all the requirements for friendship and you think they look nice and you love their laugh and their smile and their eyes and their amazing sense of humor and you feel like...
Like you can be yourself around them. 
Like you could see yourself living out your whole life with them by your side. Going to movies together, eating dinner together, waking up together. Laughing and living with them by your side and you feel like they're the one. Kisses on the cheek in the morning. Getting up early to make waffles for them and falling asleep in the middle of a movie you've watched a million times. Sharing everything with them because they will always be there for you. Throwing parties, going on dates, laughing at stupid campy movies and jokes on the internet. Sending them hilarious memes and sweet quotes and complimenting their appearance and skills. Love is what you make it, but love will always be love at its fullest. Real love is beautiful, powerful, and after all the angst, happy.
