Well, pre-puberty I always obsessed over the other girls. I made a stuffed bear in class that I named after one of the girls in there and then slept with it for a while, always tried to impress her on the playground, and was heart broken when I was pulled out because I'd never get to see her again. I couldn't see myself with a man either, to the point where I wanted to marry my brother (I was about 7 at the time so it was completely innocent lol) because he was the only one I could tolerate living with. Always liked the idea of physical intimacy with other girls. Started thinking I might be bisexual or lesbian around the age of 10.

Mid puberty - Was openly lesbian with my friends, dated a few girls. This was the time period where girls were pretending to be bi for brownie points so I often felt disappointed they weren't as into being physical as I was. Ended up having some pretty sexually traumatic stuff happen which screwed up my sexual development for years, which lead me to the T for a while.

Post puberty - Questioned my attraction to women until the sexual part of my sexuality kicked in at about 17. Been certain that I'm lesbian since.
