This may seem really dumb to some of you, but I would really appreciate a little help...

You used to be all I wanted you to be, all that I needed you to be.

I think they'd get the picture.

Being 'bisexual' doesn't seem like a very 'major' confession to me.

If you only knew my parents....

I would suggest taking it really slowly, kind of ease them into you telling them. If they can't handle the fact that you are bi, really that is no fault but their own, and they need to learn to accept you as who you are.

One thing I have definately learned is that sexuality does not define your personality, it just defines your sexual preferance. When you tell them try and explain to them that you are still their baby girl.

Just make the blow of telling them as soft as possible, such as telling your mom first since it seems she would most likely take it easier then your dad.

I can understand how this is really hard for you, as I said I've got a buddy going through almost the exact same thing right now.

Good Luck.
And feel free to Pm me if you need anyone to talk to.

You can't have buttsex without subtext!

On the other hand, I feel that my sexuality isn't their business, and they don't need to know. Don't feel bad for not telling them. Sexuality is... a personal thing.

If you really want to tell them then tell them. It might be easier if you wrote it down as a letter or whatever, or you could give them a shock and bring home a girlfriend. ^_^

If they don't like it, if they do freak out then that is essentially their problem. I know it would hurt you that they'd have problems with it, but really if they're too narrow minded to accept their daughter who finds men and women attractive... well bugger them. They'll get over it in time.

Well, when you're in public with your folks, see a cute girl and go, "Look at that ass!"

I think they'd get the picture.

That's one way to do it. Haha.

The best way to decide whether or not to talk with your mom is to ask yourself these questions:

Are you sure about your sexual orientation? Do you really want to declare it at this point in your life?

Are you comfortable with your sexuality?

Do you have the support of friends and family?

Are you knowledgeable about the challenges that are faced by people who belong to sexual minorities?

What's the emotional climate at home?

What's your motive for coming out now?

Do you have available resources to care for yourself if your parents decide not to because of your sexual identity?

Are you financially dependent on your parents?

What is your general relationship with your parents?

What are their views about sexual orientation?

Is coming out your own decision?

If life is a waste of time,
and time is a waste of life,
then let's all get wasted together
and have the time of our lives.

good luck :)

You can't take back a word that's been said outloud...
But dam i wish you could sometimes :)

However, if you really want to tell them, perhaps writing a letter to them would make it easier on you.  Doing it face-to-face might be intimidating.  Or you can just take your mom aside, and tell her alone, and she can tell your dad.  Just know that no matter how disappointed they might be, they love you and they will get over it.  Of course, you don't have to tell them if you don't want to.
