    I'm starting to realize that bisexuals have fluid attractions, that can fluctuate from time to time. I guess for me the problem is how my own attractions fluctuate, what parts do fluctuate and what parts don't. My sexuality is best classified as bisexual, because I can feel sexual lust for either genders, but romantically and emotionally I've always gone to other guys, for some reason girls just don't feel right in that regard, I don't think I could ever honestly love a woman.

    The real killer is how my attractions fluctuate, I'm usually horny as hell and really into dudes, or not really in the mood and could go for either one, but usually just go with girls. In short it's complicated. As bisexuals why do our sexual attractions fluctuate. Better yet, is there a way to make them stop. I kind of what the wheel to stop spinning and stay on what my heart actually wants, not whatever I happen to settle for.

    I don't think there is a way to make it stop. It's just the way we are. If you rather settle for guys then just go for guys. I thinks it's a curse that comes with bisexuality. We just go both ways...with everything...

    Yeah, I feel you. It changes constantly and there really isn't anything you can do. It sucks, but it's the downside to being able to be attracted to both genders. What can you do?

    Seriously though, does anyone know how to make it stop? Or make it stop fluctuating and stay with both?

    I've heard that this has happened to a few bisexuals . Being bisexual doesn't mean your gonna like both sexes equal you can be bisexual and like the same sex romantically and sexually and only like the opposite sex sexually . I think bisexual is a fluid sexuality :slight_smile:
    bisexuals that like the same sex more I think are called homoromantic bisexual .
    So you might be homoromantic

    It freaks the hell out of me.

    Sometimes, i think that I've got it all wrong and that I am really straight, and start panicking that I came out as LGBT.

    But other days I wonder if I really am just a lesbian, and that it wasn't fair coming out as bi as my feelings for girls are so much stronger than boys.

    I can definitely relate. Even though I've definitely been with more men, I've also had feelings for women and it does feel like it fluctuates sometimes. I've been interested in dating girls, and dating boys at different times.
    As I am in a relationship right now, though, my feelings tend to be about my boyfriend.

    I find in general when I've been single I was generally much more flexible in tastes and interests. When I'm in a relationship I tend to be pretty devoted to that one person.

    I definitely think it would be interesting if scientists looked more into bisexuality, as it is very understudied in comparison to homosexuality.

    This sounds almost exactly like me. Yesterday on the way in to class I drove by the boys baseball team and nearly had a heart attack at how hot they were, and 20 minutes later I'm swooning over the hot group of girls who sit next to me in class. :roflmao:

    Being bi feels like a blessing and a curse. You can't control who you're attracted to, but you can choose who you sleep with/have relationships with. My best advise would be to try to learn to love it because it's who you are.
