Well imagine your life with a person of the same sex,or try dating a person of the same sex that you are attracted in a certain way,and see what you feel.Experiencing will make you know.I'm bisexual,and if you ask me if i could have a wife(sounds so weird)I would say yes,cuz first of all a women knows better how to handle money,how to take care of a child(that can be adopted)and stuff like that.Though i still like boys,it's like the sex doesn't matter,they are all potential partners...:)

almost everyone is bisexual in nature, whether it's 50%straight-50%gay, 90%straight-10%gay, 95%gay-5%straight, 99%straight-1%gay or 80%gay-20%straight.   it can be any combination of numbers.

How can we possibly know? \n\nHave you ever had sexual intercourse? Was it with the same or the opposite gender? Did you enjoy it?\n\nIf you've never had sex, are you attracted to the same gender or the opposite gender?\n\nThere is a growing number of young people who choose not to label themselves as gay or straight, but rather bi. According to the sexual studies of Dr. Kinsey there is a wide range of sexual attraction in humans, ranging from completely heterosexual to completely homosexual, with most people falling somewhere in between. If asked, a lot of people will admit to at least one same-gender experience, and yet they do not self-identify as gay.\n\nAbout the only advice I can give is to follow your heart. If you're unsure or uneasy, stop.

theres one good way to know if your bi sexual or just bi courious. You have been with men. If you can look at a woman and just wonder what it would be like to be with her and not act on that thought. Your just courious. If you find a lady and actually try something and enjoy what you have then your bi. You are the only one who really could answer this question. It depends on how you feel in side.

It's a feeling, not something you find out.  Being bi is not a bad thing.  You haven't given up on guys.  I've always had a firm belief that your sexual feelings is your business .  No one else needs to know. \nLet's just say when you know what you want, then tell them.  This could just be a phase you're going through.  You'll also know the best time to tell them.\n\nGood luck

If you are only sexually aroused by thinking about or looking at women, you are straight\n\nIf you are only sexually aroused by thinking about or looking at men, you are gay\n\nIf you are aroused by both you are bi.\n\nIn any case, you are you -- be happy with that and believe in yourself -- always.\n\nDwell in love.\n\nRegards,\n\nReynolds Jones\nSchenectady, NY\nhttp://www.rebuff.org

I believe most people are bisexual.  It just depends on how open to the idea you are.

Too early to tell, probably.  \n\nAt this point, I encourage you to just follow your heart and your set of sexual, emotional, and personal needs without worrying yet about identifying yourself.  Maybe you are bi.  Maybe you are a lesbian.  Maybe you are straight.  You will find the right label after you have had a chance to have more experience with relationships, with sex, with love, and with culture.\n\nExplore, question, and learn first.  Label later.  And remember you can always change your label to fit your growing understanding of yourself.\n\nFor some people, bisexuality, especially in youth, is a phase on the way to learning that they are really primarily identified as Gay or Lesbian or primarily identified as straight.  For some others, like myself (and I ain't a kid no more; I told my Mom I was bi in 1986 and haven't turned back since), a Bi identity fits us and is not a phase but our permanent state of being.\n\nIt is more important to learn about your self and your needs than to be anxious about what to call yourself.\n\nBe honest with your friend, and see if there is room for a romantic relationship with her in your friendship.  Again, that's more important at this stage than choosing an identity.  When you have had enough life experience, your identity will reveal itself to you.\n\nMost important of all, don't let anyone convince you that how you are and what you're feeling is wrong.  Whatever your underlying identity, who you are is who you are and you are right to be that person.  Find friends and lovers who understand you, and can support you when you're on your way.  \n\nPS/ You might try doing some reading about sexual identity and bisexual identity in particular if this is on your mind.  Try some of the books mentioned below:

Some people limit bisexuality to sexual practices, arousal, and attraction only. However like homosexuality and heterosexuality it also includes things such as affection, love, and companionship. True some men use it at as a mere turning point but others are able to be comfortable with both men and women and may not be attracted to both equally and even have a preference. Some men feel that they don't have to choose because people want them to and thus they don't. For example a man can have relationships with mainly men during most his adult life but find a woman who he falls passionately in love with and ultimately spends the rest of life with. He could still be defined as bisexual despite him having a preference.

Well. i can't be one to tell you if you are or aren't.  I'm gay (i'm a boy), and i suppose that if you like both guys AND girls, then yes, you're bisexual.  and that's totallly okay.  i know SOOO MANY bi guys and they have no problems with society knowing

Do you attracted to people of the same sex?  If so, you are probably gay.

People fear what they don't know, some people just cannot accept the fact that not everyone is like them nor should they have to be. We are all individuals with certain qualities that make us unique and who we are. Bisexuality is actually something that we all have in us however not everyone would accept that fact not would they act upon it. I beleive that being attracted to our own sex if normal . Some people can accept that and not experiment and some do experiment and find it gratifying. To each his own and no one should ever condem anyone for their preferences. I would say that you should do what you need to do\nif you are happy with it however you don't need to make it public.\nWhy not let that be something you explore discreeetly, not everyone needs to know.  So just remember this bisexuality thing is normal and do what you need to do.

The answer to your first question is pretty simple. There are plenty of people who have and act on romantic feelings for both genders, so, yes, people can be bisexual.\n\nYour second question is much more complicated, and you will no doubt get a lot of different answers, and the answers will probably biased in part by where they are coming from (gay, straight, bi) and their previous experience with bisexual people. \n\nI can only answer for me, for where I'm coming from. I'm a lesbian in my late 30s, who has been in a committed relationship for 8 years. (We would be legally married by now, if it was legal where we live.)\n\nBack in my 20's when I was single and part of the dating scene, there was a definite bias in the lesbian community against bisexual women. That takes some explanation.\n\nFirst, when I use the word bisexual, I mean it the way that I used the word in answering your first question: bisexuals are people who have and act on romantic feelings for both genders. \n\nThere are plenty of young women, even moreso now than 10 years ago, who believe bisexual means "I'll marry a man, but messing around with women when I'm drunk is sorta fun."\n\nTHOSE types of bisexual women are the ones that the lesbian community is really against. Most of my lesbian friends have, at one time or another, dated a bisexual woman, gotten emotionally involved, and then gotten dumped for a guy, because the girl wasn't in it "for real" ... just "for fun."\n\nThat being said, I do have bisexual friends, both men and women, and I don't care one way or the other that they are bisexual, just as I don't consider whether a person is straight or gay before deciding to befriend them. Cool people come in all flavors, you know?\n\nSo I will say this in conclusion to all the bisexual people out there, regardless of how you define the word: if you get into anything more than just a casual hookup with a gay person, PLEASE tell them that you are bisexual, and talk about what that word means to you. Open communication about this (like most things in a relationship) can really keep people from getting hurt.

If you are attracted to both guys and girls, you are bisexual, meaning you are sexually attracted to people of both sexes.  There is nothing wrong with this.  If you have feelings for this woman, feel free to pursue them, but let her know you are struggling with your own sexuality.  Maybe she can help you figure out who you are.

sweetie, \n\n think long and hard about it, and look at it like this: Do you like chicks? Can you see yourself with one? Would it make you happy? ok now think bout this: Do you like Boys? Can you see yourself with one? Would it make you happy? \n\nnow honestly which idea do you like better? \n\nthere are lots of support groups out there for bisexual, homosexuals and hetrosexuals, that deticate they're time from trained volunteers and peeps that have been there that would be gald to talk to you and help you figure out and be there to support you no matter what decsion you've made, always remember you have to do what your heart tells you, and always be happy and do what will make you happy, then your not failing yourself and you must remember that others are not you and they can't make the desicion for you and they shouldn't influence you, this is something you have to do on your own for yourself. \n\nso be straight, be bi, be gay, just remember most importantly be happy and be you its better in the

It's natural to be gay/bi, but that's not an answer I can give you.  A clue, though, is if you really desire making love with the same sex.  Sexual desires are one thing, but true homosexuality is a love thing.  If you love females in that way, you may be gay.  You may be predominantly gay with a slight turn toward the heterosexual (hence, your sexual but not loving attraction to boys).  In the end, however, it is your decision.  I can only offer advice.
