Pressure to date women

I (32 F) have known I’m bi for years now but was in a long term relationship with a cis het man up until a year ago. Now that I’m single, I’ve been feeling pressure from my friends (mostly bi women dating men, mind you) to explore my attraction to women while I’m still single so I don’t regret missing out someday. But if I fell for a man now without ever dating a woman, I think I’d be ok with that and still sure of my bisexuality.

When I’m really questioning, I start thinking my friends have too much of an influence on me which might be internalized biphobia from my ex who was not very accepting of my sexuality and said I was “trying to fit in with my friends”. The thing is, I’ve had queer friends before I even knew I was bi. Can anyone else relate?
