I am very comftable with he/him pronouns. Always was but recently I noticed that while I don't go out of my way to use them I'm also fine with they/them pronouns being used on me.

It could be a phase but I'm not sure. It could also be that I tend to use they/them as an alternative in. I'm confused

There's nothing really wrong with experimenting with gender and pronouns and deciding what works for you. If it feels uncomfortable to use they/them go back to he/him. It's possible to be nonbinary but close to a man as well.

It's cool you're thinking about this! Understanding one's self is the only path to self-improvement.

I'm confused, the labels don't seem to fit me well. I mostly feel like a guy but I feel that a tiny part of me is non binary.

That's totally valid too though, nothing wrong with that! Your experience of gender can change over the course of your life or even on a daily basis. It's a gender journey, not a gender destination.
