    ok ok ill give you a short version.


    i like women.(as mates as gf's. sex. kissing. hugs etc)
    i like men(as mates. not bf's. sex, kissing. oral but only too me)

    i think i may be either bi or just addicted to sex.which is weird cos i always thaught they were just people making a fuss.:)
    if i am bi should i tell my mates?

    You're probably bi. Tell your mates if you want to. There's no "should" about it.

    Why would you tell your mates, when you're not even sure yourself yet?

    Maybe discussing it with a close friend might help.

    you sound like you are bi or maybe confused!

    Personally reckon we all are a bit if we're open to it and why not. It's good to experience these things and doesn't mean it's a badge of some sort that you'll have to wear for life. Experience yourself and others respectfully and honestly and enjoy it ;)
    No need to compartmentalize yourself though if you don't feel the need to identify with one group in particular nor is there any need to tell anyone you don't feel comfortable telling unless you're talking serious relationship stuff.

    Enjoy yourself. Your opinion is the only one that matters!

    Alot of people experiment at the start (I'm assuming your relativately young still, 20 - 25). If your Bi you're Bi and so be it, if not you'll eventually settle into one or the other so either way enjoy it now (as long as it's safe). You don't need to tell your friends, just act as you want and let them work it out for themselves, if you tell them then it could be seen by them that your looking for their approval and then they might start giving opinions that might force you into a box, you're enjoying yourself so why let others express an opinion on what you enjoy? Right now what you do is your business but if you tell them then your effectivly giving them permission to make it their business too and you might not get the response you want.

    Knightofcydonia, don't worry about sticking a label on yourself. It's more important that you're happy with yourself than that you can describe your sexual preferences to others.

    What I found best was to talk about it with a close friend - it helped me get stuff straight in my own head.

    If you think telling your friends will make you feel more comfortable then do it, but don't feel like you have to. At the end of the day every person's situation is different, but the common thread is that the main thing is to feel comfortable in your own skin, however you see it.
