I feel like my sexuality has changed. I was always 100% straight for my entire life but now I feel the opposite. Am I sexually fluid? Will I ever feel straight again?

In my personal opinion, I think we're all sexually fluid to some extent. It's just that not everyone wishes to openly admit that. There's no shame in that.
Now that's cleared up I just wanted to tell you that you don't have to label yourself or fit your experience into a box (unless you want to). The feelings might fluctuate from one end of the spectrum to the opposite one. I think the best advice I can give you is to give yourself space and enjoy the journey.
Maybe this will turn out to just be a phase for you. Maybe it will become an important part of you. Either way, accepting yourself is key.
Sexuality can be a tricky thing to understand, since sometimes it feels like it flips and shifts over time, but that can be a good thing. We, as people, shift and change over time, and, just like our favorite colors and foods, who we like can change with us. Taking the time to explore these feelings your having and acknowledging that your sexuality may be a fluid thing that moves with life might help ease your anxieties on it. So yes, you might feel straight again, but you might not, and the important thing is that is entirely okay.
