I'm also in the position of being unsure of my sexuality. I'm sexually attracted to men, but I'm not certain if I'd sexually attracted to women too, or not.

I'm in that position too. At this point I'm pretty certain I'm attracted to women also, but I've never actually had a relationship with a woman though I'm not very young. (I know I wouldn't need to have a relationship to know, but I'm still not sure, so...)

Mostly people tell me I don't need a label, which is fair because I guess I don't but it is so bad that I want to know and not just speculate?

I know there are a lot of people who know their sexuality without having had a relationship, but I honestly think having a relationship would help me figure it out, in my case (but I'd feel so unfair dating someone when I knew I wasn't sure. Gah).

Mostly people tell me I don't need a label, which is fair because I guess I don't but it is so bad that I want to know and not just speculate?
I get that all the time, and I know that yeah, it's not actually all that important in the grands scheme of things, but IDK. I'm the type of person who likes to have herself all figured out, I guess. I'd be fine not labelling myself as long as I knew precisely what I wasn't labelling. xD

Honestly, I gone through about a million different labels for myself. I've pondered just about every label I've come across other than 'entirely gay / homosexual' (at least I know one thing?). Heteroflexible, bisexual, bicurious, I've actually pondered asexual (although I'm now certain I'm not. Demisexual maybe though), Kinsey 0.5, Kinsey 0.1, Kinsey 0.05, heterosexual. *hands* At the moment I'm leaning towards calling myself a biromantic heterosexual. And maybe the romantic orientation vs sexual orientation thing is what's been tripping me up. But I'm not certain.

ayrt

but I'd feel so unfair dating someone when I knew I wasn't sure. Gah

Yeah, so much this. I wouldn't tell someone I was anything I'm not, and some people might be open to that, but many of those people might just want a sexual experiment type situation which is not something I could really get into. I mean, I might not like it just because I felt uncomfortable so it really wouldn't help.

For a while I kind of thought I might be a lesbian because my sexual experiences with men have been pretty bad. (That wasn't the only reason or that would be stupid, but that and the fact that I reacted strongly to visuals of women made me wonder.)

But lately I've developed this really huge crush on a male celebrity. Which doesn't prove anything either, but, without dispensing TMI, it's enough to convince me I could sexually respond to a guy. (Even one that, er, wasn't him. XD)

For now I'm saying "bisexual" because I'm really pretty sure I could be with a woman, and in fact I have one friend that if I could meet her in real life I think I could go for. (I wouldn't say I'm "in love" with her but that's mostly because I don't talk to her often enough to do that.)

Sorry for the long comment. I just don't get much chance to discuss it without people smiling and saying "You don't need a label, honey." Which isn't an evil thing to say but doesn't help.
