My caregivers, and two men have asked if I’m lesbian.

I’ve always been quite spiritual and after leaving an emotionally abusive man last year I’ve done a lot of inner work, shadow work, parts work and EMDR. This keeps coming up for me now, I’m unsure why as I’ve always dated men, am sexually attracted to men and want to marry a man (that is emotionally safe). I was doing parts work with my therapist last night and we were talking to my fear, and this voice keeps saying that I am lesbian. I’ve never really questioned my sexuality and to be honest I’m not sexually attracted to women although I love them of course and I think the female body is beautiful. What I can’t put my finger on is why this is coming up, I hope I’m posting in the right place and not being ignorant or offensive. I can’t decide whether this is my inner critic or my ego or what. Because as the title says, my mom once asked if I was doing stuff with one of my high school friends who is lesbian and I went camping with her and her girlfriend at the time never felt uncomfortable or weird around them, my step mom told me didn’t ask me if I was lesbian after I had showered with my childhood best friend which we always did when we were little I didn’t really see it as sexual and honestly I’m not sure why we did it, just were super close! As I was growing into my teen years I would play football with the guys in my school because the guy I had a crush on was a football player and I longed for his attention so much. Lastly a guy at my work recently asked me if I was texting my boyfriend I told him now I’m texting my cousin who is a woman and he said I wouldn’t be surprised if you were lesbian. Now that you have context, I guess I’m just a bit lost in my healing journey from my relationship of five years. I’m not sure why this keeps coming up for me either by other people around me or my fear in my parts work session. Has anyone experienced people misjudging your sexuality? Has it turned into a fear or shame story? Again I hope I’m in the right place, just looking for guidance or clarification and safe space to do so.
