In your case, don't label yourself anything. If you meet a guy or a girl you like, just go with the flow. Don't let their gender restrain you. Either you'll be attracted to them or not, and if you are, try your luck at it.

As far as alcohol goes, it doesn't change your sexuality. It just gives you an excuse to do things. Why don't you try experimenting sober?

Maybe your pansexual. Fall for the person and don't restrict based upon gender. You go for people you think are attractive and like based on all straight people base it on you just don't see gender. Idk its a possiblility...

And this.

What these two posters said is correct. I also identify as a pansexual because with me, my relationships are not at all determined by the gender of the individual at all, just by their personality and character traits that are responsible for me liking them in the first place.

Being pansexual has many advantages, probably the best being that your relationships will ultimately be more meaningful because you are not restricting your heart to a gender bias. Very often, men actually have more in common with other men than they do with women simply because society conditions both genders completely differently (most girls aren't raised on G.I.Joe and video games). Thus, if you're pansexual, that wonderful feeling you get when you really connect with someone who shares your interest is something you can pursue, regardless of whether the person in question has two X chromosomes or one.

It doesn't mean that accepting your pansexuality will necessarily be easy though. While being pansexual offers you the ultimate level of sexual fluidity (pansexuals will often date anyone if they dig them, men, women, and transsexuals) it may not initially be easy for you to accept. Remind yourself that as a pansexual, you are able to align yourself with people on all sides of the fence. You can easily acquire gay and bisexual friends to support you, and there's nary a woman to be found who doesn't love a gay/bi man. I would advise building a network of trustworthy people who can talk you through the difficulties and challenges you may encounter in exploring what your sexuality is.

Lastly, do not be pressured to label yourself at all. Remember that labels are basically a way of classifying something according to a common set of characteristics. The problem is, especially today, that everyone is unique and their situation different, so your fears, doubts, passions and desires may be completely different from the next pansexual, bisexual, gay or straight male. This is why it's important to talk to people, both in real life and on forums like these. Just don't feel pressured or obligated to label yourself, and don't rush through anything. Let things work themselves out naturally and I wish you happiness with whatever the result.

Good luck!
