    This is something that seems to take over my thoughts the majority of the day. Obviously I'm not expecting someone to be able to tell me exactly what I am, but I'm just not sure if anyone else had similar feelings? Basically, I'm 19, nearly 20 and probably started considering that I might be gay when I was 15. I never said anything about it to anyone, mainly because I don't know how understanding my friends would be, so continued to be with girls. I guess the fact that I could do this makes me doubt that I can be entirely gay? I don't know..Also I've never had sex with a guy, so its kind of difficult to compare, but it doesn't seem like something that I'd enjoy. Maybe I'm scared of it, but anyway, I just don't want to get this wrong. I've always been so sure of myself until now and I'm just generally confused. Not sure if anyone else felt like this at all, but if you did, it would help to hear about it. Thanks!
     
  2. Hey fraser I'm in the same boat as you...
    The only difference is that I'm 23 and just started questioning but from what Ive seen of people questioning it seems to pull them in the general direction that they are in fact gay. Yet to label ourselves gay isn't exactly something we should do either because if you have enjoyed your time with women and that I think makes you bi.
    I'm also with you on having gay sex. I have never had interest in it and just watched gay porn for the 1st time and got to say it was very arousing but...well...lets just say ill probably never search it again. It probably is fear ruling us but if that is the case and if your anything like me then you probably won't act out on it..
    In the end ask yourself can you see yourself with a man? Do you want to do things with a man? If yes then you are probably bi. If not then your probably just over thinking it.
    Good luck with finding yourself!
