Am I secretely lesbian/bi or I still haven't found the right guy?

I'm 24, virgin and never been in a relationship. I've always had crushes on boys ever since I was in elementary school. I know I'm attracted to them because I feel the butterflies, I've been emotionally invested with some of them, I have sexual fantasies about them, I love the eye contact games, I've been guilty of teasing men for years and I enjoyed every single bit of it. I lost 100 lbs and now I feel good in my body, whenever I dress up to go out I like the attention I get from them etc. However!! I discovered self pleasure when I was little by watching a girl strip and that freaks me out. I've never been attracted to a girl I saw down the street, sure I acknowledge someone's beauty but it's never been "sexual", more like admiration probably. I've had some sexual dreams about being eaten out by girls and it felt really good, actually. It turned me on. Sometimes If I watch girl acting dirty (like in porn movies etc) it's a turn on for sure but that's it. I don't imagine myself with a lady in real life.
Sex with men scares me. I'm literally scared of a guy penis. I've never watched an actual porn movie because I can't stand the sight of penetration, it disturbs me. When I think of two girls having sex I don't feel like this because I'm a girl, I know what a female body looks like so the sight of naked women feels normal to me. Sex also gives me anxiety becuase I relate it to pain, fear of getting pregnant, the thought of something stretching my vagina is scary, there are certain things that upset me the sight of giving birth, flesh and blood, I feel the same about sex (with men). I don't think that people are disgusted by the idea of sex normally. So, that's for sure not normal and strange. If a guy tries to push further, I run. I tease but then if he wants to get serious I just run away. I see the relationship per se as a prison even if it were with a girl, I'm currently imagining myself in a relationship with a girl and it just feels "wrong", I'm like "nah"

. I've always told myself it's because I'm a free spirit, I wanna discover myself, do my things, I'm currently 100 lbs down after being overweight and obese for 22 years of my life, I'm buying all the clothes I've always wanted to, getting tattooes, taking care of my self, I'm graduating college next year, I'm living my life honestly and I just feel unstoppable. Sometimes It's like I wanna convince myself that the reason why I haven't found someone yet and i'm scared of sex is bc I like girls

  • I think you’re straight.
    You just can’t get your head around your issue being intimate with a man.
    Sounds like you might benefit from some therapy to help allay your fears and anxiety around it.

    • Yeah, I think it's so strange to be freaked out by penises that it must mean I don't like men! I confronted other people about it and after saying that the thought of having sex with a girl doesn't freak me out I was called lesbian. I didn't mean that I wanna have sex with a woman, sure I might be curious and open to things in general but I'm mostly into men, what I meant is that since I'm a girl, vaginas are normal, I see mine everyday, I'm used to it but I swear the thought of a penis and penetration upsets me and it's visually triggering. This is strange.

  • I'm a virgin too. Nothing wrong with it. Nothing wrong with being bisexual or a lesbian.

Most Helpful Guy

  • Sounds like you are gay honestly. I don't want kids but i'm not afraid of vaginas and i don't fantasize about dudes ever.

    • I've never even seen a penis before though lol. It's just a innate fear.

    • You are trying to rationalize a phobia. That doesn't work lol. Phobias are illogical fears.

  • There's a possibility you might be bi curious.

  • At the moment, Id say your bi curious.

  • I think you're probably straight but worried about sex. Probably if you find a guy that you wholly trust you might allow him to have sex with you, but don't feel bad about waiting

  • sounds like you are very conflicted, I am sorry about that. The only way to get over it is to force yourself to go through it, then the mystery will be gone. If you have a close male friend, I would talk it over with him.

  • try both and see

  • It may be either one or another. Only trying and tasting for you to Know for sure.
