Input question

I really love being a lesbian but having a crush on a girl teacher is too much right?. When we see her at first , I kept looking at her because I like her style. We are the same, kinda boyish then that's it. But days passed I started questioning myself that if I have a crush on her, I'm zoning out and thinking this is not right and I'm insane. That's the first time I felt that being a lesbian is hard. Idk I'm kinda confused too
