Default Advice Needed.

I have a bit of a dilemma.

All my life I've always been attracted to men. I mean, as a teen, I experimented a little but it never went anywhere. I've always had horrible experiences with the opposite ***. I have a child from a past fiance, we were going to get married until I got pregnant and he ditched me to fend for myself.

After all my bad luck with guys, I decided to just put off men for a long time. I resolved that I just wasn't ready for a relationship. Over time, the longer I stayed away from men, the more I realized that I'm becoming less and less attracted to them. I've noticed that when a guy hits on me or asks for my number, I feel very distant and put off.

I will sometimes check a guy out, but I'm not nearly as attracted to them as I use to be.

Today, while I was at the gym, I noticed that I'd caught myself accidentally checking out a girl. Even after I noticed, my eyes kept accidentally wandering toward her. Tonight, I realized that in the past, I've always kinda suppressed my attraction toward women, a lot because my father is STRONGLY homophobic. I hear him making fun of gay/bi people all the time and every time it offends and hurts me.

Do you think it's a possibility that I might be bisexual?

You could be, then again you could also be simply curious, I can comment when a woman has a nice pair, but I'm as straight as an ironing board. could you imagine being in a serious long term relationship with another woman, maybe being in bed with another woman?

I think as of right now you're becoming bi-curious.
I think it's just something out of the ordinary, and you're interested.
If you try being with a girl and you like it, you'll know how you feel and
you'll know if you're bisexual. Goooood luck. (:

I think everyone's got a bit of bi curiosity in them.
I'm gay, and would bang Angelina Jolie .. if only.

Don't worry, it's either a phase or a ''What if..'' moment. You'll soon know for sure when you either act on impulse, or time passes and you realise for sure; preferrably the latter.

I've been going through the same thing as you lately. Except, my dilema wasn't as...harsh. It was just a few ******* bf's in my case. But nonetheless, it still seems to have, for the most part, turned me completley off of guys. Sure, I do occasionaly flirt with guys, etc. But, feel more...me when I think of spending time with girls, rather than guys. So after all of that, I've called myself bi.

There's a big chance you can be bisexual! If you don't want to further this, you might have to take some drastic measures, AKA trying to get yourself back into guys. I'm not really sure how though, but you can be creative and think of something!

If you do decide to do this, your father will love you no matter what. Trust me, I had a cousin go through this with a STRONGLY homophobic and religious mother. At first, she wasn't really accepted, but in a month or two they finally realized that she was her daughter and that she loves her no matter if she was heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, trisexual, asexual, etc.

You sound like my friend. She said that, she'd had enough with guys, and started hanging around with girls more.

I took her to a gay bar and got a lesbian to speak to her.
I bet you've never seen anyone run as fast as her in your life. I think she's back to men now.

Only you will truly know if you're bisexual or not. None of us can tell you if you are or aren't, we just can't. Like someone else previously mentioned, if you can picture yourself with a women in the long run, then perhaps you're bisexual. If not you're merely just curious, which is normal imo

Maybe you're just afraid to commit to a man again because of the past experiences, so you have this defense up, believing it'll keep you from getting hurt again. Keep in mind that not all men are out to hurt women or use them. Also bare in mind that some women do hurt their spouse/lover/whatever. So it can go either way really, differing from person to person.
