    I don't think either of you are gay or bisexual. It's possible but there's not sufficient information to conclude so. Sometimes straight guys experiment around and chances are more likely when they're drunk.
    It's only when you really desire being sexual with a guy that you should have to consider bisexuality. You said this friend is the only guy you feel sexual with. I would definitely not consider that substantial to be considered bisexual. Even gay men sometimes have this sexual attraction to a particular girl they fall in love with. Your friend said he's straight. Maybe you should take his word for it. Or ask him plainly if he desires men too.

    You should decide if being friends is worth it and your friendship is important for you. If he is important to you, then be open to him about your thoughts & feelings and work from there. It's far better than acting like it never happened.

    Re: had sex with my bestfriend we are both 24 and i thought we were straight

    Hm. It seems to me there are two issues here:

    a) Your orientation

    b) Being roommates with your friend

    Regarding your orientation - ultimately only you can decide what your orientation is - but from what you've said, you could be bisexual, possibly leaning more toward women. More specifically, you said that you became very close with your friend. So maybe it's a case of being bisexual for him or you requiring a close emotional connection with a guy before you would feel attraction for him.

    At the end of the day, I think the question is: Did you enjoy what happened? Is there a specific reason why you wouldn't want to do it again/more?

    Regarding being friends and roommates - While you may have both agreed to just 'forget it ever happened', that seems unlikely to work in the long term. Or even the medium term given that you indicate you are still feeling attraction to him. This in itself isn't a bad thing, but if you (you alone or both of you) are trying to figure this thing out, it might be better for you both to have the option of having space to figure it out in instead of being in such close proximity while you do so. So maybe hold off on being roommates for now, unless you can figure this out before moving in together.

    I don't think you should end your friendship. That seems rather a case of cutting off your nose to spite your face.

    I do recommend that you do work to come to terms with and accept this aspect of yourself rather than trying to suppress it or pretend it never happened. Based on what many many people have said about this kind of thing on EC, taking that course has a way of coming back to haunt you later - either in the form of fighting an ongoing emotional battle with yourself or feeling increasingly bothered or depressed as you hide or suppress a part of who you are, sometimes for years.

    My 2c worth,
