How might I see if I like girls?

I know the title is odd but I can assure you I am not some oddo looking for jollies on a Saturday night (cutted up pear, penis beaker).
I have found myself single after being in a relationship for a long time and I have always thought I could be bi. I find women so sexy and generally when I have ‘alone time’ I always fantasise about women.
I don’t know how I might try it to see if I like it, I don’t think any ‘proper’ gay women would be interested in a noob like me!!!
If anyone has experienced similar feelings and can help a lost soul it would be much appreciated!!

Well it's not hard to use your imagination surely? Having sex with a woman is a lot more than kissing. Could you imagine yourself doing oral sex for example? With a woman?

Oh definitely, it doesn’t give me icks, quite the opposite!
I just don’t know how I could test the water so to speak!

Well you could try online dating. There are specialised sites and there's probably a way you can let potential dates know that you're new to things.

Make a tinder, set your interest as women and make it clear to any matches you're looking to experiment

Yes Tinsel because lesbians love it when you want to have a go on them to see if you like it. I’d suggest joining a social group or going to a lesbian bar with a friend and seeing if you meet someone who seems nice.

This is the the issue, I don’t want to just give ‘someone a try’. That feels very wrong. Perhaps a gay bar is a good place to start, a bit more organic!!

Sorry, I worded that poorly and didn't mean to cause offence. I meant more as to cut to the chase and not string anybody along Sad you can filter your sexuality to "questioning" on there to be upfront and maybe find somebody in the same boat.

If you live in or have access to a largish city/town you might like to try searching “lesbian friendly [name of town]”, this could give you details of places you could go to and make new friendships and chat with like minded people.

I’m not suggesting avoiding the dating scene, but it could be a slightly less pressured introduction.

It might also be an eye opener to look up the Kinsey Scale to help find out a little more about yourself.
