But some people are attracted to both sexes (bisexual), and can be turned on by either. This is not something to feel ashamed of, but it does mean your sexuality can be even more confusing because of this. One sign of potentially being bisexual is being turned on by either men or women.
At the end of the day, the only person who can answer these questions for you is yourself. You can second-guess yourself all you want, but underneath all that second-guessing is a set of desires that are honest.

Everything DocJohn said is true. Bisexuality is more common than most think. You don't have to box yourself into being attracted to only one gender. Also, if you are gay/bisexual, this isn't a problem, though it can be easily perceived that way. But if you are, you are. It just is, and you can choose to make the most of it, by finding someone you love, regardless of what gender they are.
