Is that just bicurious? (I’m asking in general, not as myself because I’m bi for sure.)

I know people probably ask this a lot but I genuinely want to know now.

    I’m pretty sure that’s just being straight. You have to be attracted to both genders in order to be bi, so wishing you felt attracted to the same gender but only being attracted to the opposite gender is straight.

    “I’m just not into women” contradicts being bi.

    As a lesbian who’s experienced compulsive heterosexuality, I’ve wanted to be interested in men just as I was in women and tried to convince myself I was.

    However, like her, “I just wasn’t attracted” to them. While I wished I felt for them what I felt for women, it didn’t mean I was into men, I just wished I was. That still makes me a lesbian.

    I don’t recall genuinely ever being into men in my 22 years of life, even boys and boyfriends I tried to force myself to like to “prove to myself” I wasn’t gay.
