I remember being very confused myself, not knowing what i was feeling, i had began talking to this guy and he was sweet, kind, and had feelings for me. I at the time had never looked at a male in such a light before, i had never experienced a feeling this way. I was confused, scared, and i didnt understand why i felt the way i did, so i decided to tell the ones i most trusted, my parents. Needless to say they took it harshly, its still a touchy subject, i remember feeling hurt that they could not help me. No one could, but i found a way to manage, and they began to slowly understand, they began to become more and more open to the idea, and now everything is fairly ok. 3nodding

Truthfully it was kind of weird. I sat down in the living room and said I had something to say. And then I just said I like guys. And my mom just said ok and my dad went back to reading the paper. That was it. Im not uber flambouyant or anything. I have two older brothers so I think it was just them expecting one of us to be gay or bisexual. Out of use three I guess I seemed the most likely. Anyway, they dont really say anything negative about it, but they arent supportive at all. They kind of just ignore it, which considering the reaction they could of had, Im pretty grateful.

My parents kindof freaked out at first. I told my mom in the car (where we usually have our "talks") and she said being bisexual wasn't a good thing, because my family is Christian. I told her I loved a girl, and if she loved me, she would accept me nonetheless. She and my dad are finally coming to terms with my sexuality, although I still think my mom doesn't take me seriously when I say I'm bisexual. It hurts, but now they accept me and my sexuality; for the most part.

My dad actually offered to buy me a plane ticket to visit my long distance girlfriend. That was a HUGE step for him, because he was the one most against it. My mom's pretty open minded, but my dad would pelt me with scriptures whenever I mentioned my sexuality. So him offering to let me visit my love alone, is a HUGE, HUGE, And I'll say it once more; HUGE step for him. It makes me feel more confident about being bisexual.

I think my mother is still confused. I will explain it to her at a good time. She is pretty open-minded when it comes to these things.

I haven't really talked to my parents about it, but I did have a long talk with my sister. She's only one year younger than me. She didn't take it as badly as I thought. She actually supports me.

My mom was informed in passing. I've always been a bit... off sweatdrop so she told me it was a phase and I didn't know what I was which considering I was a freshmen in highschool she could have easily been right. It didn't ath but it's never been much of a issue never have had a close in town boyfriend only a girlfriend the boy I was fond of was in private school with me so when I went back to public that was that. My godmother (who is like my father figure) has not been told, my friends are weary of her as am I so I've avoided the subject for years if I was confronted I wouldn't back down but I'd rather not stir the pot to soon

my mom saw me kissing my gf and obviously found out. so i suppose i didn't really tell her myself but she was ok with it.

My mom said that I was a lesbian, then I had to correct her and then she corrected me saying that she doesn't believe in bisexuality. So, to her, I'm just happy with who I'm with regardless of gender. Which is very true. My older sister is bi, and then the second eldest sister is lesbian, so it was easy for her. She sorta knew before I told her but she had confidence in me. lol.
My stepmom took it alright considering she is a very strong christian. Then, so am I so... Anywho, she took it very well just let me know that she didn't want to see any pda and just wanted me to be happy. ^^ It took her a little while to be able to talk about it and to not be weirded out by it, but she came 'round.
My dad, was another story completely. I was sooo nervous and he just shut me down completely (wow, I'm tearing up just remembering it). It felt like my heart was being ripped out by my favorite person in the world, because in a way, it was. Well, the next day I fainted and he came to pick me up from school and in the car he mentioned that he loved me no matter what and that he had his suspicions for a while so he is cool with it too. He doesn't like it when I call my girlfriend my girlfriend or remind them how long we have been together but oh well. I'm actually very impressed with how well they all took it.

My dad beat the crap out of me and my mom didn't talk to me for two months...
PostPosted: Sat Mar 26, 2011 1:53 pm


Well sweatdrop I Havn't told them yet, I have told my younger sister because we're only a year apart. She did say "Well that's because your bi" In front of my mom but she didn't hear her. My mom's pretty cool but my dad dosn't like gays so im kinda hesitating, Maybe i'll tell them when I go to highschool (im in 8th grade). I relized i was bi when me and my friends were talking before going to bed and one said "Well i'm bi" Then I added on as "Yeah me too, i just relized it a while ago." Sadly, the 3rd person who was there isn't and i like her.(And im open about it at school) razz biggrin

Wait~ I told them! My mom said "Okay" and my dad didn't care. They don't care that I have a girlfriend either. My mom is supportive about it! ^^
