Hey Pene,
There is no point in you telling people if you aren't ready and/or don't feel the need to. The only reason I did was that it was driving me crazy at that point in time, plus I am a very open person and find it hard to keep things to myself.
Recently I have been focusing on the issue a LOT and considering whether I should say anything to my family, I'm still in the same position I was and don't really know what I would say to them (its very different with friends as I'm sure you understand). It's so hard to describe but when I'm around my family and they say things like "are there any girls you're interested in?" I just feel like blurting everything out!
It's so difficult, some days I can't stop looking at girls and other days at boys. One very good thing that has come from this board is learning to accept yourself totally. I have reconciled myself to the fact that my attraction to guys is another facet of my personality/ sexuality and should not be something i am ashamed or embarrased about. I am gradually becoming more open with it in public eg: saying to people when I think a guy is good-looking wheras before I would never have dared. I am also aware that it is impossible to have all the answers now. After speaking to my friends I came to the conclusion that sexuality can easily shift over time, I may well turn out to be (to use the dreaded labels) totally gay, totally straight, or as I am right now, somewhere in the middle!
These issues are so hard to articulate
I'm just so glad this board is back up and running!

Totally agree with you...I felt like telling my friend not because I was ready but to help him realize that he was not alone because he was getting a little unstable about his situation...I myself am pretty comfortable with my sexuality and have a lot of great friends who except me for who I am...And I guess I got it pretty cool because the straight guys I hang with are pretty comfortable with their sexuality too so we don't have problems complimenting ourselves or other guys if we think they are goodlooking or something...Trying to describe my sexuality is very difficult like yourself...I just know I like women more than men but I do like men too but just not the same way sexually...I just enjoy it and not think about it too much...That is what works for me...
