How do I tell my family and friends im bisexual? Im scared of what they will think
i would just tell them they will get over it and relize you are still just like them and life goes on and you will be happy
Why do you feel the need to share your sexuality with everyone?
It seems to me that matters of sexual preference is an intimately personal choice that should remain personal.
And if you decide to share it with someone it should be with a spouse and/or your personal doctor because of possible infections and/or std’s.
Do you share your financial business with everyone? Do you share your toilet habits with everyone? Do you tell everyone all the things you do in bed with a lover? More than likely the answer is no to all these things.
Some things are best left alone and your sexuality should be one of them.
I wouls wait until the right time.. this is information indeed, however, it is YOUR information.
They may accept this and m,ove on.. the ,may not. Youmay need to make sure your standing completely on your own efore throwing this out there. Life is like a game of chess..trully… make sure youlook at all the outcomes of your moves..it’s imperitive to your survival..which definatley superscedes all emotional value of your feelings..really.. be smart..take care of yourself..stand on your own..then say who you are..
I have not told anyone… for the same reason you have
Please have faith in yourself and your family. I told my family that I was a lesbian about 6 years ago. After hearing the news my mother spent 3 days in bed and then got on depression medication. I was also disowned by my entire family. However, during the following year we began to build our relationship back. Now, things are great and they love me and my girlfriend. I was sure that I would lose my family and never be good enough for them if I dated who I was in love with. However, they just needed some time to let things sink in and see that I am still the same person I have always been. In fact, they all noticed that after I came out, I was a happier person that I used to be.
It is hard…VERY HARD. I had to be to the point where I was willing to lose everything. I told them. I love them. They came back. I have had several girl friends since that time and they have three that I was with for a long time. They are great people and want the best for me.
Please follow your heart and have faith that ‘everthing will be okay.’

what they think wont change who you are , agreed dont expect them to all jump n be happy for you to start with but if you r important to them then tey will wish you to be happy , n if they dont then they r showing you that your happiness isnt very important to them ,
selfish people can be sadly

When you think it’s the right time,
tell one person that you KNOW will be accepting of it. It helps.
From that you can be more open about it until you’re able to tell anyone at any time.
Good luck<3
Do it on your terms.
However, be careful that YOU are the one to tell them, and not someone else that has happened to have it figured out. I wish I could have told my parents myself, but they found out from some kids that I was in school with.
I hope things work out for the best <3
Forget it and get over with. It’s in the past. Don’t ever tell, you’ll just hurt him.
You don’t have to tell them. They can figure it out on their own or when you start dating someone of the same gender. You are not obligated to tell your family and friends your sexual preferences just like straight people don’t announce to their families they’re straight you don’t have to announce that your bisexual. It’s just part of who you are (okay that sounded a little cheesy but hopefully you got my point) ;-)
Start out with why your bisexual.
I’m bi. I experimented with my best friend over the summer, and her boyfriend. They had an open relationship. My mom never knew and never will know. It’s a horrible thing. Just tell them when you feel like you absolutely can’t wait any longer.
The world needs more bisexual women… So much drama, so much entertainment…
heyy
i was scared to tell my family too
i am 15 so my friends were all okay with it cuz there going through the curiousity
you should get it over with
cuz no matter what they cant change you
and be proud of who you are
dont let anyone make u sad just cuz u look for personality and not for gender
<33
Perhaps try to tell them when they are happy. Go out to dinner with them. Then tell them you are bisexual. Tell them you like people of the same sex and are happy. After all, they are your parents. They will understand.
