questioning your sexuality, talk to me

So I’m questioning lately whether I’m also attracted to women and I’m not sure how to navigate it.

When I was around 16 (I’m now 20) I felt like I may be also into girls, but only had the inklings and didn’t know if it was more that I just wanted to see. However! This girl in my year (who was bi with a heavy preference for girls) was convinced that I was bi and kept going on about it to me and to other people which just pushed me back because I didn’t want to get with a girl and then be outed as being bi - cause what if I wasn’t?

When I finished school, I got into a relationship the next October with my wonderful boyfriend, so where might have been my next time of life where I could have experimented and figured my sexuality out... I just didn’t because all my attention was on him and I didn’t really want to dwell on it.

Now 2 years later, I’m starting to question again... tbh I’m pretty sure I’m bi - I was always aroused by boobs and all butts since I was a teen, but I guess because of heteronormativity I always pictured myself with a guy.

And I’m not sure where to go from here, since I’ve denied it for so long and to people, and since I’ve never really been with a girl, or never remember having a crush on a girl - I feel kinda fake and I keep bouncing back to the voice in my head being like “are you sure you’re bi? Or do you just like the idea of it?”

Any advice on how to come more to terms with it myself? Especially while in a relationship. I know my family & friends, and 99% sure my bf, will be accepting when I decide to tell them, it’s just wrapping my own head around it first.

Edit: TL/DR - I’ve realised I’m bi but I feel like an imposter in the Bi / LGBTQ community, any advice?
