I definitely agree with others who say don't put pressure on yourself to wear a label.
Labels are too limiting for some people. I see you chose bi- and so did I, although that's not exactly how I feel.
Give yourself some time to let the dust settle. All may be perfectly clear in a little time (or who knows? Maybe several years?) after you meet a person you really click with.
As for kissing, I'll tell you a short story. Personally, I love to kiss. Last year I hooked up with a guy I really liked and I told him what I was into (kissing was one thing). He politely responded he wasn't into kissing guys. I told him no problem, it's not a deal breaker.
So we get together and I keep reminding myself: NO KISSING. But at one point he moved closer to me and slightly parted his lips as if to say I want to kiss. I instinctively moved in, but then stopped when I reminded myself about the "No Kissing Rule" and then thought, what the hell? He's initiating the kiss! So I moved in again and took it!
It was hot. And super nice.
Later, I was lucky enough to see him one more time, except that time I tried to initiate the kiss and he didn't reciprocate.
:frown:
Oh well, I softly told him, no problem and just kept on truckin....
You know, sometimes we feel like a nut, sometimes we don't.
