recently I've found myself more and more interested in the female form.

i've always considered myself straight, never had a relationship with anyone other than guys but just recently.. well like i said.

i've not had a relationship with a woman so does this just make me curious? Or is it the bpd / identy bit being a ******?

Only you can know if you're straight, bicurious, etc. One thing I'd like to mention is, straight people who've never been in relationships never get asked "then how do you know you're straight?". You just know. Just because you've never had a relationship with a woman doesn't mean you're not bicurious (or bisexual). You might be, you might not be. If you know that you for sure like guys, what might help you figure things out is start paying attention to if you think about women the same way you think about men. Do you like them in a similar way? Can you imagine yourself dating women? Ask yourself things like that, that's what helped me sort out my feelings, I hope it helps you too

I agree that Not Emo put into words perfectly the very important questions you need to ask yourself, but I just wanted to point out a couple of things. Just so you know, I am a very straight girl dating a straight boy. But I find the female body absolutely beautiful, and, indeed, much sexier than the male body (all excluding the boyfriend's ). So what I wanted to say is that don't feel too much pressure about putting a label on yourself. Also, it is possible to enjoy looking at a female body (even getting turned on) and still be straight. I believe that for both boys and girls there is a period of time where they wonder if they are gay or straight or are confused about what they prefer, and maybe even experiment some. This is completely normal, and probably happens to most people but isn't talked about by all of them. In time, everything will become straightened out. (Poor choice of words, sorry. Straightened out doesn't mean become straight).

Whenever you find your sexuality, enjoy it! Don't worry about what others will think, because there is definitely someone else out there thinking/feeling the same things; you are not alone
Thanks for this!

Yup, you need to make peace with whatever it is "does it for you".
I've considered myself straight, and then met the most awesome woman (She didn't really have a model's body, but it was her as a person) and we ended up getting together. My first ever experience with a woman, after I'd been with my boyfriend for 2.5 years.
Well, that relationship didn't work out, and I'm back with my boyfriend, but I must say I've been ledt with a lot of unanswered questions.
I do love my boyfriend, but often crave the emotional intensity that we had.
I guess that's why I see a T, to talk about these things.
I've never again felt this way about another woman. I also never thought I'd be with a woman, it just kind of happened (The first time we were a little drunk), but we never regretted it and we ended up in a proper relationship.

Don't let society dictate what you have to do.

Thank you for this thread. I have a lot of these same questions. Sometimes I wonder if the things that happened during my childhood have an influence on these thoughts.
