A while ago I was kinda surprised that my attractions shifted predominantly towards men. I knew I was bi for years and was alright with that but, still was predominantly attracted to women. Then for the last couple of weeks my interest in women picked up. Now, I feel myself shifting interest to men again but, not as strongly as the last time.

I guess upon reflection, my growing romantic attraction to men is what probably drove the recent increase in my attraction to the same sex. That was a more recent development that happened in the last year when I tried browsing OLD sites again. I started looking at the men I saw as potential long term partners in a way I only thought about with women until that point.

Does anyone else deal with this too?

Edit: Sorry if the response time was a bit laggy, my shit was longer than usual today.

    Yeah it's called the bi-cycle, or bicycle. Very normal. For me it's only my attraction in men that seems to shift a lot. Usually it's kind of low, i'm not super interested in men but every now and then for a week or so i feel more attracted to men than women

      I guess the concept is still new to me since I've never really felt such a significant shift over a short period of time. I used to get annoyed when I tried to talk about it with my mother, since she has such a static view of sexuality and attraction. I hate being told to "pick a side." It doesn't work like that exactly.
