please help

its been weighing on my mind since quarantine started and maybe its bc i have too much time to think now but the more and more i think abt it the more unsure i am

ive wanted to present as androgynous since i knew what it meant but i never gave it too much thought
i honestly thought that there was no way i could ever pass as a guy no matter how i dressed or styled my hair bc of how feminine my features are. like i said, ive never given it too much thought before but there have definitely been times where ive looked at more feminine men and
and wished that i looked like that or looked at more masculine women and really really wished that my jawline was more defined or that my eyes didnt look as soft. it hasnt bothered me too much bc ive just convinced myself that even if i wanted to pass as androgynous i could never
bc, again, feminine features but also bc i really thought that there was no way that i could be anywhere on the nonbinary specturm bc as ive gotten older ive been drawn to more dresses and skirts and clothes that are more traditionally for women. however, in contrast to that, ive
also been more drawn towards shorter and more masculine looking hairstyles as ive grown older and for a while ive just chalked it up to the fact that maybe i just wanted to look like a stereotypical lesbian but after cutting my longer hair to a bob a few days ago, ive felt more
happy with how i look. i thought it was just bc i didnt like having to take care of my long hair but theres also just something that feels distinctly nicer with shorter hair. my issue now is that i want it to be shorter, maybe a pixie cut, maybe even shorter than that. but thats
not the weird part. the weird part is the fact that i want to cry right now because i keep thinking about cutting my hair and im not even quite sure why cutting my hair makes me want to cry. i think i looked pretty with long hair but disregarding the hassle it is to take care of,
i think im just generally more comfortable with having short hair. i had a kind of half pixie-not exactly shaved haircut last year and i let it grow out but i think that i was happier when i cut all my hair off that time, and i think it was more than just bc of the excitement
anyway, aside from the weird backstory, today i was helping my little sister cut her hair and when we were done she kept saying that she looked like a boy and so i asked her if that was a bad thing and she said 'well yeah i want to still look like a girl' and i cant stop thinking
abt the fact that i wouldnt mind that and i also wouldnt mind being mistaken for a male. so now im stuck her panicking a little bit bc im not sure abt my gender identity anymore??? half of this thread doesnt even make sense probably but the more i think abt it the more
