Limiting myself?
Just because I've found I like both genders doesn't mean I have to be in TWO relationships at once. Those things are a pain to upkeep.
I guess I also just had to see for myself whether I liked it or not, since the curiosity was also bothering the crap out of me. Which is why I didn't stop it.
I found that I LIKE being with either gender, but I only need ONE relationship with one person to be satisfied.
And I don't mind that it's changed now, it just distressed me at first.
I never said you "have" to be in two relationships. I was simply asking that since you're young and you've just discovered something new about yourself why you wouldn't want to further explore it to see if that's something you really want in your life instead of limiting yourself to your long-time girlfriend just because it makes you comfortable.
I guess I'm just a creature of habit, then. XD
I just wouldn't want to give up my long term girlfriend whom I love and am happy with just to see if there's a chance I can be happy with someone else.
It's not something that new I've discovered, I've had these feelings surfacing for a little over a year. I just didn't act on it until yesterday night. And I'd say I have explored it quite a bit? o.o It's something I didn't mind. But I still preferred her even while we were...going about it.
So I guess what I did WAS right, by exploring it. I've decided it would be a nice possible option maybe. Who knows, maybe one of these days we will start a polyamorous relationship that actually works. But for now, last night's experimenting did satisfy my curiosity.
I don't know if anyone is pointing to this,
but some people seem to think that when you're bisexual, there's a difference between the attraction of females and males and they "give" different sexual feelings or something, and to feel fulfilled you need both. From what I felt personally, that was not the case... The only difference really is that guys and girls have different sort of smells and shapes to them. He was definitely more distinctively musky than my girlfriend, who smells sort of sweet. Then again, maybe it's also the fact he was incredibly feminine-acting. I don't even know if I'd been attracted to him if it weren't for his demeanor. However the attraction to my girlfriend was stronger, because we really are in love. It would be horrible for us to not see each other for even a week.
There was intimacy, and love towards the guy, but we certainly were not IN love. Might have also been a factor.
I guess I really was happy to be able to test this out and have my girlfriend be totally cool with it, and I guess it's good that I know I don't feel like I'm missing out by only having a partner of one gender and not the other. Now the curiosity will no longer drive me nuts and make me wonder if it would be totally different with a man. So I guess this does answer my question. I don't really feel bad or remorseful about any of this, EXCEPT for not using protection.
