    Hi

    I up until 3 weeks ago considered myself to be straight. I have always recognised if a woman was pretty but I never had any other thoughts other than that.

    In the past few weeks something hit me like a bolt of lightening and I found myself enjoying watching 2 women kissing on a TV show ( previously it repulsed me) since then I have thought about nothing else than being with another woman. I have never felt this intense feeling when I've thought about men. I should point out I still think men look good but my eyes are on the ladies.

    I am 34....has anyone else had this experience?

    Hi and welcome, a lot of straight women, i am told, have these fantasies... also people who become addicted to porn can start to feel things like this- it might have been a "thrill' to you and you'll seek another. With male porn addicts they can find themselves thinking about things totally outside their identity and tastes...

    so what about you. I don't know, i am not an expert with this stuff but what were your fantasies before this// ?

    I've never had any sexual thoughts about women...like I say it used to repulse me. Any thoughts were all male orientated.

    I think there is a difference between looking at something and liking what you see and talking to someone and actually wanting to do it. I don't think I will truly know til I take the plunge and see if it is all in my head or is how I truly feel. Very confusing.

    I'm in a similar boat but was never repulsed by lesbians, just tucked those feelings deep down. Now, suddenly, it's spilling over.
    Good luck with wherever this leads you.
