Thinking I'm Bisexual

[Sabercat]

I don't normally post this kind of stuff but here it goes. I think I'm bi. I have always thought that I was straight but curious because I have always gotten turned on by guys. More recently I have been thinkng "What if I'm not just curious and I'm actually bi. I recently saw a picture of my gay friend with his new boyfriend and I honestly got kind of envious of him. Like "why can't I have what he has?" Then again I might just be confused, I don't know. Part of me is afraid of coming out to my friends and family and part of me is afraid of changing my mind later on down the road. Thank you for any input or advice!

To me, it sounds like you are bi. Do you actually find guys attractive or just get turned on by them?

I think I'm bi too. I wonder though if this will change when I grow up to be one or the other.

I can relate to what you are saying. It isn't uncommon from what I see on here. If you do come out to any friends, if they are truly your friend they will respect you and admire you for whoever you are and for whatever makes up your identity, regardless of culture, sexuality, interests, etc. As for family, if they truly love you, which I'm sure they do, they will also accept you for who you are. Life is too short to not be true to yourself and your own feelings. Just enjoy it and be honest with your heart.

I'm attracted to them as well.

Congratulations! You're bi :P

Sexuality is confusing for everyone, don't worry about it. Kudos to you for actually confronting it and trying to understand it, which is more than a lot of people bother to do.

If I were you, I'd just chuck labels out the window for now. For simplicity's sake, I say to some that I'm bi, but actually, I don't think that describes me fully either. I like who I like, and I still have a lot of time ahead of me to work it out. Heck, maybe I'll never truly understand it all, but that's part of life: accepting who you are in ever changing circumstances.

Thanks! I like the quote or whatever you want to call it "I'm not attracted to genders, I'm attracted to people" or something along the lines of that. I really want to get if off my chest and tell my friend but I'm scared of rejection of being judged. :/. I sent you a message through Skype by the way (hope it don't get in trouble for saying that last part)

Hey, I too like the statement "I'm not attracted to genders, I'm attracted to people". That's me. Live life and enjoy!
