Elizabeth91 Posted November 22, 2010 Posted November 22, 2010 My whole life I've classified myself as straight, but recently, I've been attracted to girls. But not on a dating level, I've never thought "oh she's nice, I'd like to date her." It's just like, if I imagine sex with a really good looking girl, I get very turned on. Could someone just tell me if this is normal, or even what it's called?
whichwayisup Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 It's normal. Seems maybe you're bi-curious. Many women experiment, don't up end being a lesbian. Or some do end up being gay, and that is all right too. Afew of my friends have been with sexually with a woman, it's not a big deal. Honestly, if I were single now I would try it just to have the experience.
SincereOnlineGuy Posted November 23, 2010 Posted November 23, 2010 Don't even give it a second thought (as to whether it is 'normal'). What you describe is probably very common, with the least common part of it is seeing it spelled-out in black and white.
Scottdmw Posted November 24, 2010 Posted November 24, 2010 I would say it depends on what you are looking for out of life. If you're looking for a life centered on new and different experiences, then possibly it would make sense to “experiment”. If your goals for life include getting married to a man and having children, you might be better off not getting involved with a woman. Remember that for most people their sexuality is not either/or, but like a spectrum between 100% straight and 100% gay. There is some indication that people can move one way or the other, though probably not completely from one end to the other. It is possible that right now you are something like 75% straight, for example. If you get involved with a woman, you might shift towards, say, 50%, generally increasing the amount of interest you have in women versus men. That might make it more difficult for you in the future to commit to being with a man in marriage, if that is something you're looking for. Scott
Joe Normal Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 It's normal and it's called being bisexual.

Although you can't see yourself having a relationship with a girl (yet), you can see yourself becoming physically intimate with the same gender. You like (some) guys. You like (some) girls. You're bisexual.
