Confused about my sexuality

I am horribly confused and it is making me so miserable! I am 19 years old and ever since I was little I have liked boys but, on the other hand I can remember seeing sexy comercials of women taking there clothes off and i would get excited. Of course i was to young to know if that meant anything so i ignored it. That excitment has followed me all the way to now..i get very aroused by lesbian porn..i almost prefer it but i dont go out of my way to watch it..i have never to this point actually been attracted to a women in real life or even had a crush on one but it really confuses me that i lke the porn so much!?? Also, I dont find myseIf as attacted to a mans body as i am to a womens..i think that is questionable as well?

I have had 2 serious relationships the first one almost a year and the second one, which is current over a year. The sex was great in the beginning...totally hot and i loved it..but with both of them after a certain point it just wasnt what it used to be..and when that happened i turned to the thought that it was because i may be a lesbian?? of course i let it destroy my first relationship but immediatly after fell in love with my current boyfriend so the thought went away..but like clockwrok the thought is back and has been with me for over a year...it really impairs my intimacy with my boyfriend now and i basically have no sexual desire because im to busy worrying about my sexuality??..its horrible..i love my boyfriend very much and i dont want to lose him over this if it is nothing to worry about. i want to be true to myself..although it would be very hard to come out to myself, i do not want to be miserable and lvie a lie. What shoudl i do???

Im a 44 yr old man. Who's celebrating my 26 year wedding anniversity today! Like others have said, when my wife and i watch porn are a show with sexy sences. She to likes the girl on girl action more. Matter of fact she think a mans penis is so ugly.lol. But i just think its a normal thought. So just relax. Matter of fact you and your boyfriend could play around with that fantsy in bed.lol I would.

a women body is peace of art compare to men ... it is very easy to attract to a beautifull curvy women body..  also lots of women analyz other women body as comparison of body figures like hips and breast... Some women get gelious from others due to shape of figure...  in this way it is very easy to attract to other women.. if you think it is not wrong... your confusion might go away with time..

I have spoken to by bf about it and he finds nothing wrong with it either. Most people that I talk to don't think it means anything. But for some reason I can't it out of my head that it could mean something. Hence the obsessive thinking.

My wife and I would rarely watch porn together, but when we did she liked the girl on girl scenes and she is not bi. So it could just be that you like to see a womans body over a man's from time to time.

My suggestion is talk with your bf but make sure you are not telling him that you want a 3-some or want to explore with a woman.

But I think it is very normal for women or even men to think "what would it be like to do...this or that" or attracted to the same sex.

Thank you for your input..I have thought that it could be that I'm bi-sexual but I feel tht doesn't even fit..I have never desired a sexual or emotional relationship with a women. However, I do think I am bi-curious.

I worry because thts my personality...I have suffered from anxiety and obsessive thinking for just about my whole life. It *****.

Everyone, at some point or another, has to come to terms with their sexual preferences.  You are obviously "worried" over being a lesbian, yet are becoming intimately attached to men as well.  You just may be bisexual.  Why are you worried?

Part of maturing as an adult is coming face to face with that.  Unfortunately there's nothing that any of us can say or do which you probably already know - go out there, explore, be intimate with whomever you like or desire, and learn.
