Confused about sexuality...

I apologise firstly from those who are pissed off at threads such as this one, but I wanted to get other peoples opinion on this issue.

I am a male uni student, and ever since I hit puberty, I have been sexually attracted to both men and women, though more strongly towards men. However, for the past few years, y attraction towards women has intensified.

I feel that the reason as to why I am attracted to men is because I am quite a submissive person. However, when ever I have flirted, or had sexual relations with a male, although it was immensely passionate, the after effect has been devastating. Its like taking heroine, where its amazing when you do it, but you feel like **** for two to three days afterwards.

When I've been in sexual relations with women, although somewhat less passionate, the post-sex effect is brilliant.

I do want a family, and to have a stable life, but this confusion is killing me.

Yeah...your bi-sexual, but why do you feel almost guilty after being with a man? Why do you feel horrible after? Is it because you don't WANT to like men or...? Because it's nothing to be ashamed about, more men are open to this now than ever have been, so just relax, and whatever happens happens. Think about kids when you feel like your with the one person you truely love, whatever sex they may be. Because that's just something to complicate the issue now. Just don't be so harsh on yourself
