Im in a long term relationship with a girl who i adore and love, she does know all this (i cant keep secrets from her!) she got hurt but accepted thats it part of me. I think im Bi-sexual. But i wont know for sure until i explore the other side of me.

Anyone else have lingering thoughts of their sexuality on their voyage for self discovery?.
I had that experience about a year ago, and for a while it was a nightmare. Discovering I was gay was one thing, because I had to struggle to be honest with myself in the face of something that terrified me. But the more I came to terms with it, the less I cared, and by now I am ridiculously comfortable with it. Since then I have tried never to repress an attraction, however strange it seems to me, because after all, it is only a thought. Thoughts can only hurt you if you refuse to think them--that's what I decided a year ago and it's what I'm still trying to practice (with more difficulty than I ever expected) across the board.
