Not Sure What to Do
LGBTQ+ / MOGII Support / by Flowers97

...See more Hello,  To be honest I'm not sure how to even start this but I'm a bisexual female. My family is a complicated bunch to put it politely. Because of that I've always tried to be the mediator between them and not stray to far from what they believe is right. But after several incidents I'm just exhausted. I want to stop lying all the time and feeling so frustrated with myself. But every time I am tempted to come out to my family they will make a homophobic comment or insult. Now, I feel trapped. On good days I'll be fine and be an embarrassing hopeless romantic about things. Then on bad days I'll feel a lot of self-loathing and shame. At times it gets so bad that its hard to breath. I don't know what to do.

...See more Hello, I'm questioning. I think I might be bisexual. To be honest I'm not sure. In my family, there is a lot of shame around anything sexual. I personally think it might be because I'm a girl. Anyway...I might have a crush on my friend. But I know nothing will happen because she is in a relationship with a great guy. A part of me wants to get out there to meet people but I'm scared. Thankfully I live on my own in a different city, which helps. I was wondering how did you guys figure out your sexuality? Please, if you have any advice all are welcome.
