Finding yourself again

It feels so strange when you come out of a relationship trying to find yourself again. Im realising that my ex made me introverted and worried in the end. I am remembering things that i used to enjoy before i met him. Im thinking i may rather be with a woman next time round. I semi dated a woman for the first time after breaking up with him who was passing through the country and she made me feel good about myself and brought a smile to my face. Maybe its time to try out my other side more. Today when i was out i checked out more women than men.

    yes do. I'm considering doing that, but then I'm always worried I won't be accepted in to groups like that. I've met so many gay women who feel threatened by women who are attracted to more than one gender. It's cool though that you're comfortable enough with yourself to do something like that. ;)

    Moonrat - I know what you mean about people not getting it when its two genders! Can make it hard. I do have some funny images of it being like Alcoholics Anonymous or something lol, but people tell me its just one big social thing :) One of my friends is joining it at her uni, so thats encouraged me a bit.
    Dinted - Me time is definately needed after being hurt!

    It's odd... It's like... Why am I staring at that girls ass and liking what I'm seeing?

    The next day you're asking yourself why there's something sexy about a man's upper body.

    However I've heard that some women do decide to go for women instead of men after bad experiences. A fair few gay women I know have been raped or abused bad, but I don't think that turned them 'gay'. I think most people are 'bisexual' to a point.
