Is it normal to reconsider dating another gender when in a relationship?

I have always considered myself bisexual, and not one of those confused attention grabbing teens. My first two relationships were both with other guys, the second one getting somewhat serious as we dated for about 8 months (personal high score) until I was cheated on. After a break up, make up, let's be friends again, I decided to date a girl.

This girl is the love of my life, with the exception a few minor flaws she is utterly perfect. She is there when I need her, I trust her enough to be completely open and honest with her where I can't with most others, we talk about our relationship problems until they are settled and we are always stronger as a result, etc.

However there is a lingering feeling in the back of my mind that, even though this is the greatest relationship I've ever been in and I'm so happy with her, I feel like I might be better suited to my own gender. Maybe it's because I've only been in three actual relationships, but compared to the two guys the girls is such a golden-hearted, accommodating person; while the other two guys were selfish and uncaring.

So is it normal to be wonderfully happy in a relationship but still not be sure if I'm wearing the "right outfit"?

    You can still be bisexual but have more of a preference to one gender.

    Ask your girl, maybe she won't mind if you play around a little. She may even want to join, ya never know.

    My first real relationship lasted 3 years with a female. It didn't take much getting used to for me. I had dated a few guys here and there but nothing serious. We broke up and I'm now in a serious relationship with a guy. It was hard to get used to after being with a female for so long.

    It just takes time. How long have you guys been dating? As long as it feels right you shouldn't think too much into it. Just enjoy your time with her and in time you will more than likely feel better about it.

    From your writing you seem thoughtful and analytical. You could be over-thinking it a bit. You may feel more at ease when you are more certain about what is most (or more) important to you in a relationship. It's easier to know what to expect from others, when you know what you require for yourself.
