I really love being bi and believe I fall under the umbrella but I don't feel attracted to the same sex enough to be bi.

I still find the same sex hot but it feels like I don't feel that enough to be bisexual. This just feels strange

As the other couple commenter have said, it's perfectly acceptable to be attracted to one sex more that the other, even if that means you're more hetero leaning. I'm pan, (used to identify as bi) and a close friend of mine is bi and all throughout highschool we use to joke that I was more straight than gay and he was more gay than straight. Point is, it doesn't matter how skewed your balance is, you're still bi if you are attracted to men and women. Don't hold yourself to some imaginary standard, you are valid just they way you are.
