Daughter thinks she is bi; we have discussed it; she is not sexually active. She...

well you are helping her by supporting her, that's a good start. the rest its her choice, it will come a time when she will become sexually active with a man or/and a woman and this is when she will choose by feeling more comfortable with either sex or both sexes, if she is bisexual then her sex life would be flexible, but make sure its always safe sex and with condoms, also try to avoid threesomes and promiscuous sex.

Allow her to explore whatever she needs to do, reassure her that everything is ok, but protect her in the way any decent parent would

She will figure it out in due time, and if she knows that you will be supportive of her no matter of who she really is, then that will be one less pressure on her shoulders that will make it all much easier for her.
On a side note, one does not have to be sexually active to figure out which way they swing (so to speak), they only need to make a good introspection.

She is probably bi and not confused, how old is she?
Yeah i agree with the other answerers, she will find out herself, but generally is real and not just a phase. You are a great mother for being supportive, I wish we all could have parents as supportive as you are.

Leave her alone. Its the age. They might change when she's mature or find a cool guy.

Many adolescents have thoughts such as your daughter has. They are victims of ill-understood statements about relatonships. She can have a great friendship with another girl and be quite normal. Her liking for boys is biological and quite normal. Millions of people have very strong feelings for their friends. The world would be a poorer place if this were not so.
The fact that she can feel strongly about and for anyone is a good and healthy sign. There are people who have no feelings for anyone and some not even for themselves.
The fact that she feels the way she does shows that ( if you will excuse the expression) your daughter is a healthy social animal. This is the best sort of person to be. She shold rejoice that she has a female friend for whom she feels strongly. One day, she will meet a man who will make her feel just as strongly and even more so.
Frankly, all the bunk that you read about sexuality has done noone any favours by muddying the waters and confusing many innocent people.
Best wishes.
