Questioning My Sexuality: Am I Biromantic?

I’m questioning my sexuality rn. I identify as bicurious but I’m feeling closer to biromantic. I realised last night I’ve been attracted to a TA that was with me in my school years. Not as in full blown crush like where u want to date or have s3x with but more so that I’d constantly find myself obsessing, finding her drop dead gorgeous with no flaws, looking in the wrong area (ifykyk) and finding her body attractive and I would pay close attention to her outfits. I also have had moments of sexual feelings for friends. And romantic. So for me I feel instant sexual attraction to males and defo have a preference but I also can feel attracted to girls especially if I already know them. So I feel if I got into a relationship with a girl I can’t imagine it rn as the actual sexual feelings but with time in the relationship and being touchy with each other I could see it coming. Does this make sense? Is this the definition of biromantic?

Based on the replies in the context, being biromantic could mean that you are comfortable in a relationship with someone of either gender. If you think you could be comfortable in such a relationship,...See More

I read your previous post about your feelings for your best friend- as a queer person, something you have to learn about gender and sexuality is that there are no black and whites. Experimenting is a thing because you're supposed to fuck around to find out, so to speak. If you find yourself attracted to a woman in any way, and you identify as a woman, but still prefer men, that's okay. Being attracted to both to any degree is being bisexual. It's hard to picture yourself doing sexual acts with the same sex if you have no experience. Your best bet is to try it out when you get a chance and it feels right, and if it isn't for you, it isn't for you. It is perfectly normal to be heterosexual and biromantic if you feel the desire to be in a romantic relationship with another woman but don't feel comfortable having a sexual relationship with a woman, but it's worth waiting to explicitly define yourself as heterosexual biromantic until you know for sure that you're not down to have a sexual relationship with the same gender.

All that being said, there's no problem with identifying as bicurious. That can and should be the label you use until you have had time to experiment with the same sex and find out whether or not you are comfortable with them.

As someone who came out as Bisexual last May, I can somewhat relate to how you feel. I have been with both genders so what I say is, try it and see how you feel because once you do, you'll feel like a weight has been lifted off of your shoulders. I've also been struggling with trying to figure out if I'm actually a lesbian or just Bisexual as men can sometimes make me feel uncomfortable so if you ever need to talk then feel free to send me a message

Tysm glad to see I’m not alone with these very confusing and conflicting feelings. Honestly some days I end up just in a state of “maybe I’m just straight and overreacting” it’s like a non stop loop
