I have taken that test previously and scored a 4. When I removed subjective reactions from others the score went way down. Taking a test like that in our situation is difficult as some of the questions are misleading. Such as:
Question 3, not being concerned about whether you are a sex addict and being interested in your score should not be an indicator of sexual addiction.
Question 4, other people being concerned is not necessarily a valid indicator of sexual addiction. In this situation it isnt your behavior that is the problem, it is your desires.
Question 7 - seeking therapy relative to issues related to sex is not necessarily an indicator of sexual addiction, especially when it is therapy in an attempt to help you come to grips with something like bisexuality.
Question 11 is very difficult for a bisexual. Please be very careful that it is talking specifically about sexual behavior and be careful with what you consider normal. Caution - anyone who is not familiar with non-straight orientations may consider any same sex attraction to be abnormal.
Many of the question deal with "sexual behavior" as noted be very careful. Thoughts and desires are not behaviors.
Question 24 - for an emerging bisexual it is completely normal to go through periods where your desires feel very strong. However, if you are able to resist the urges, then you are stronger.
Question 28 - are you in crisis? Is it you, or your relationship that is in crisis. Is the crisis because you have done something, or because you have certain desires?
I suggest taking the test again and paying close attention to the questions.
