Coming Out to Parents *YIKES!!!!!*

So... I've been thinking for a while about telling my mom I'm bisexual. I'm sure shell be completely cool with it, but I have NO clue how to do it!!!

If you have told your parents your sexual orientation (as in gay bi or lesbian) or have a way to tell her or some emotional support to offer me... HELP!!!!

I'm straight, but I've had quite a few friends and girlfriends who have been bi-sexual. And I agree fully with the above method. One of my ex-girlfriends came out to her parents with a videotape which she left on the coffee table with a note saying, "Tell me if you still accept me." It did not go down well.

^^ thanks. I'm going to do it... I just have to give her some time first. she just broke up with her boyfriend (they were dating for 3 years) so its definitely not the best time to tell her...

I WILL DO IT THOUGH!!!! and soon.

My parents found out I was les 2 days after I started seeing my first gf... I just came straight out and told them I was in a relationship, My mum asked who is he? I replied it's a she... she said OH!! Do ya wanna speak to your dad? lol... Think it was a bit of a shock seemings the relationship I was in before was a bloke and I was with him for 10 years... I think they both still secretly hope I will get back in a male relationship, but they're kewl with my sexuality as long as I'm happy so are they... Besides I think 5 years on they are realising it is not just a phase lol

Yeah, there really is no rush, just make sure to sit her down and tell her calmly and be prepared for every possible reaction. Good luck! :) I recently came out to my mother...eek! But my mom's strict avid catholic.

My mother would disown me if I told her I was bisexual.

Good luck! :).

^^ gee... that really makes me want to tell her!!!

OMG.

Hm. i think i will either do it tonight or tomorrow night...

wish me luck!!! (and NOT disownment!)

Lol I'm sure she won't disown you! Best of Luck!!

AH! i couldnt do it last night because she was on the phone. i cant do it tonight because shes on a date. i cant do it tommorow because i have to stay after school till like 9 and shes going out with her friend!!!!

I know u want to tell her but slow down and quit worrying so much or u will worry yourself sick! Best of luck.

I told her... yesterday. I figured I needed to because I have a girlfriend now... so it was kinda important to tell her. she was surprised and said it was probably just a phase. then:

"does sandy (foreign exchange student living with us) know?"

"yeah... so does trysten (my little sister)."

"oh... when did you tell her?"

"last summer."

"that was almost a year ago..."

I think eventually she figured out i wasnt lying.

^^^ thanks!! Its so weird... like im still in shock that i dont have to keep a secret from my mom that ive already kept for such a long time...

Well, just out of nowhere be like "mom, I like this girl and she's just totally amazing and she makes me happy" or something like that. I'm bisexual and i told my mom a long time ago. I just told her like out of nowhere. "amanda is my girlfriend, deal with it". she didnt like it at first but now shes cool with it...but im with a guy now. and i have a baby

Whoa.
That's weird.
I just recently told
One of my closes peeps
That I was a lesbian.
I asked her if she thinks
I was over reacting
She says yes.
I don't know...
Maybe I am?
