I’m a lesbian but nearly everyone thinks I’m bi because last year I pretended to have a huge crush on my friend Jack. It was mostly a joke, I was way to open about it though and now I regret it because people are confused when I correct them. My mum doesn’t believe me and if I even mention a guy she starts asking what I think of him and kinda smiling weirdly. It doesn’t help that on somedays I’m a bit biromantic and it messes with me a lot. My granny Pat has really old fashioned views on LGBTQ+ and it’s kinda stressful because I have to go to her house a lot and i’m just kinda sitting there feeling really uncomfortable for hours because she doesn’t know and it’s just...A mess.

i FEEL that, girl. my dad is so homophobic and close minded because he’s from a small town. about 4 years ago, he searched through my phone and found out i was bi by reading through my text messages. he scared me so badly. saying that i couldn’t be gay. that i didn’t understand what it meant. how disappointed he was. how disappointing i was.

so i’ve been pretending to be straight for the past four years. saying that he was right and that i’m ashamed. i’m not ashamed. i used to be, but not anymore. i just need to find a place where i can express that now.

he doesn’t really trust me as much as he used to and he always makes sure to point out his discontentment with lgbt+ issues.

sorry this sorta turned into a rant but idk i kind of went off mentally just then.

I started to question myself a couple months ago and I'm pretty sure I'm bisexual. I came out to my two best friends, and they couldn't care less lol, so that was good. I don't plan on ever telling my family, and honestly, at first, I wasn't ready to come to terms with it myself, but I think I'm good now that I've accepted myself.

Heyy! I'm someone who's bisexual and nonbinary! I think I lean more towards being attracted to guys, and I just feel like some people wouldn't view me as a valid bi, but hopefully people can view me as one :D I support all of you guys who are on this thread <3

huh. It's funny how much someone can change - or not really change, but discover themselves more. I came back to this thread to see what I posted about my sexuality, and I realized I was wrong. I'm actually asexual and bi romantic, I think. Everything is confusing but I'm still learning. Growing up in my household I was never really taught about different sexualities, genders, etc, I have to research stuff myself, and I honestly didn't know about half of the stuff that existed until I made a tiktok account lol

lol look at me having another crisis and realizing I'm actually Aroace, and it actually feels 100% correct. Only took me 17 years. That's a lot of stuff I don't have to time to dive into lol
