    OK, quick questions. At what point are you not bisexual if you're attracted to guys and girls? So, if OP has always been with guys but have always found girls attractive, is she bisexual or is she lesbian? Do you get to classify yourself as lesbian if you've been with guys? The whole classification thing is so confusing. Does OP have to choose and does anyone else have the ability to classify someone else's choice of partners or is that wholly up to the chooser?

    What's with all the 'am I a lesbian?' threads today? The only way to know is to sleep with another woman and see if you like it. Asking people on a calorie counting site is not going to give you any answers.

    If a person dates the opposite gender because they were afraid to admit they are gay. It happens a lot. Especially growing up in a family that is very religious and considers it a sin. They can date the opposite gender and then admit they are gay. We don't know how old the OP even is (if they are not a troll). Op could be 20, or any other age. If she said, I forgot and didn't check. Sexual orientation is on a spectrum. Some people are all straight, some are completely gay, some are right in the middle bisexual. Others are predominantly one of the three, but also sometimes find the other gender sexually attractive. But, they only want to be in actual relationships and/or marry their preferred gender. So, they can prefer women and want to be in relationship with women, but can still find men attractive at times. They just prefer women and find it more satisfying sexually and emotionally. Same for a person that prefers men, but is sexually attracted to women. They might prefer to be in a relationship with a man, but sometimes enjoy having sex with women. It happens all the time. And sexuality can be fluid for some people and change throughout life (for people that fall somewhere on the bisexual spectrum). This is especially true for women. According to the science. Women tend to shift and change and explore and become interested in new things sexually all through their lives. Not just orientation, but just things they enjoy sexually. Men tend to be more fixed in what they really like and continue to really like that throughout their lives. That's just how it tends to be. But, not how it always is. I studied sexuality.

    As long I can I remember I've been attracted to women yet I don't know how to approach a women or where to begin looking for another lesbian women any advice

    I would go to a gay bar and chat up a lady that you find attractive. Not sure what type of women you are interested in. Do you have any friends who are lesbian or gay?

    My mates knew they were always lesbians or bisexual.

    Some people deny it personally becuase of cultural stigma and retribution in their early years to conform but become more comfortable with the idea/realization as they are more confident and self-aware.

    Happens all the time.
