However, after a while if we have interest in thinking and knowing about a particular character of both genders (some bisexual think and work like this) and usually interest in character of their own gender, this is another of the stages of bisexuality.
3. Fantasize about people from different Gender
Do you often fantasize about people from different gender. Do you have mixed feelings for people of different genders? This is a clear stage of bisexuality and you need to get in touch with a specialist in case you want to get rid of such feelings.
4. See yourself in a long-term relationship irrespective of Gender
