AJ,
I'm glad things worked out for you, better than you probably thought when you made the original post. I would still hesitate to "label" anything about yourself, just go with whatever you feel, live for the moment, there are no rules...
Since I realized that I was "special" around 15, I've done the labelling thing over and over again. I was gay from 15-16, straight from 17-30, bisexual from 30-44, bisexual-leaning-towards-gay a few times in the last year and now "special". As I have been maturing, I have been realizing that there is no real reason to label, labelling is for others to peg me in a place that they understand. The only thing that matters is how I feel, that why I just call myself "special" because being who I am is better than being who other want me to be.
