    :confused:
    One minute I think I"m gay, next I think I'm bi..
    some days I like looking at women as I walk past them and think
    I like their boobs.. but vagina's still scare me.. dunno why ...
    only been in a couple..

    still think though I'd prefer a boyfriend to a girl friend but never had a girlfriend
    in my life and I'm 45 now.. is that weird or strange these days??

    It's not strange at all, the LGBT+ community ranges for many types of sexualities, and people keep discovering more as each day goes on to fit their preferences. From what you have said it seems like you may be a bisexual with a male preference. But I'd also recommend checking out the Kinsey scale and do further research just to be sure.

    Wow! We're almost like at the opposite sides of the pole... I'm female, I find both guys and girls attractive, but have never had a boyfriend, only ex-girlfriends and my current lesbian partner.

    Stop labeling yourself.

    I completely sympathise with you, I felt the same way for a while. Just remember that sexuality isn't just black and white, you don't have to chose whether you'll be exclusive to women or men and it doesn't matter if one day you prefer men and the next day you prefer women. Like ShatteredLove said check out the Kinsey Scale, it really helped me make sense of my sexuality. Sexuality is a fluid thing and it's not always possible to pigeon hole yourself within a label.

    Not if you are gay. It is actually not all that unusual.

    What is stranger is that you haven't had a boyfriend. Why don't you start working on that Real Soon Now.

    This is why the Kinsey scale has six categories, not three. It's okay to have attractions to different people; it's not okay to be paralyzed from trying any dating/relationships because you can't find the right label.
