But then I'd fall into my own trap of "If I can be who I want to be, why can I not simply be the way I've always pictured myself?"
Also, I was raised Catholic, so there's always that.

Well for starters my bisexuality doesn't stretch to having relationships with men other than mates. My Gay side is purely sexual. I don't wanna kiss and cuddle men. I don't want to fall in love and set up home with them. It's really just a sex thing for me.
As for women. I could see myself falling in love, getting married and settling down, but revealing my bisexual side has either drove them away in the past or i've kept it under wraps to such an extent that i've come to realised i can't go through with living a lie.

Like the writer, I can easily see myself falling in love with a woman, but not a man. I feel like this is where I am, but it freaks me out if I get too excited about men, and I sometimes find myself with a strong urge to purge.
It makes me wonder how many straight guys out there also have a hidden sex-only type of gay side to them.

bostonmarc wrote:So what is wrong with just making it a sex thing? Is this about having sex with men or concern about a label of gay or bi?
I believe that being happy and feeling good are more important and more why you are here than the label. Also just as the transformation has taken some time, don't you consider that in time your feelings about what you will do or not might also change?

Hmm, I guess I'm nervous I'd end up like what Alien4420 wrote about Leonard Bernstein, only not as lucky. If it's just a sex thing, it's difficult to imagine a woman that wants to be in a relationship like that. I'm sure there are some out there, but the thought I'll end up alone starts to creep into my mind.
This thread has certainly given me a lot to contemplate.

Meeting people in the kink community might be an option if you want to explore sexuality without constraints of traditional relationships. (gay or straight)

I think if you take some time off from this site, forum and the file, give yourself a chance to see what you really want and feel, and then either back at it full bore or stay on your path to being straight. It is either do it or don't baby!! Trust me it is a slippery slope at best in between.
