[mofo620]

ok Hey everyone,

I am BI I have known since I was like 8 years old. I have just recently told my girlfriend and all my friends know now too, but I haven't told my family,because I know how they are and I kinda like living where I am lol What should I do?

And I kinda like my girlfriend's best friend and he kinda likes me,but I don't want to break up with her. I am sooo confused!! What should I do?

I am also bisexual, and for some reason I was able to tell everyone I knew, really, except for my family. Most of the kids in my grade at school found out, along with some other friends I had, but not my family themselves. They still don't know about it, and I don't want them to anytime soon. So if you really don't want to, then don't tell your family. At least not yet. Give it time. When you really are ready.


As for the second part:


And I kinda like my girlfriend's best friend and he kinda likes me,but I don't want to break up with her. I am sooo confused!! What should I do?


Well, you two like eachother, ok...

But if you don't want to break up with your girlfriend, then don't.

I think you've answered your own question here. If you like where you live, than telling your parents sounds like it might be a tad too risky. Look at it this way, you're entitled to privacy, and although you might appreciate the support and acknowledgement from your folks, the trade off isn't worth it. Privacy is a nice thing, anyway. And so are the other comforts of home.

As for the girlfriend issue, if you're sure you're bi, you might emphasize the 'liking girls' part of it, while minimizing the 'guy' thing. Again, you're entitled to privacy, even if you've shared this with her, it's doubtful that she truly understands and fully appreciates what being 'bi' means. Right now, if you love her, you're in that pretty straight mode. Don't confuse her.
