Namchanged regular as this is so embarassing for me and I've not told anyone in RL either. Most people think I am straight. I've always known I like men and women. But men more so. I'm 24 now and have only every slept with one women and a lot of men. But this past year I've felt like there's been a massive shift and I can't get my head around it. I feel really abnormal. I presumed you knew what you were once you got past 20. I've had a 2 year relationship with a man but it didn't feel quite right. I don't want to come off troll-y but naked men make me quite uncomfortable/are a bit gross to look at for me I always presumed that's just because women are generally just nicer looking and straight women feel that way too. But it's gotten stronger this year. I used to consider myself a bi-woman who'd chosen to just not bother with women and that was ok (just because I found it daunting and had less experience). But now I'm single and can't imagine ever sleeping with a man again. I don't really want to. Not sure how I ever managed it either. Excuse the waffling. I just feel like my head's going to explode.
Basically, is it possible to have your sexual-orientation epiphany later than the "norm"? Has it happened to anyone else?

Thought I knew where I stood but not questioning everything *orientation stuff*
