Well there's nothing wrong with being bisexual and people who don't thinks it's normal don't have a firm grip of reality. Family that doesn't understand can be be difficult to deal with but your best bet is to be honest with them. Over time people tend to be more accepting of others. I would say one thing to your current relationship, is that even if you realize you swing both ways now, you still have a responsibility of being faithful to whomever your current partner is. If those feelings change, you shouldn't leave them out to dry and it's better to end things before it would become that much more messy a situation.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. But, my current relationship is still dear to my heart. In my mind, I don't have a reason to leave him, nor do I even want to leave him. I just thought, should I bring up the fact that I am a bisexual to him? Or would that just be a reason for him to become some what of a skeptic towards me. I'm completely faithful to him, there is nothing to change that, but time and time itself. I was only thinking that, maybe if I told him, would that break a bond that was once there with him?

Be honest. What's a relationship without trust? If he loves you, he wouldnt care what your sexual preference is.

True, very true.

I dont always say something smart, but when I do, it usually ends up giving me a headache.

If he does truly care for you he will except you anyway, be it straight, bi, or even more. Now, if his initial reaction is somewhat questioning or skeptical, I can assure you that is perfectly natural so don't feel as if he is reluctant to think you are anything but straight. When I came out to one of my best friends she was not expecting it because I had never really discussed my attraction towards women. Only guys. She was a bit confused at first, but luckily came to accept it and we are still friends to this day. As you pointed out, you are faithful which is great! Now, I would only say it might put wedge in the relationship if you decided that you wanted to be a polygamist or something, but I highly doubt that from your posts. Just be honest and upfront. I understand the worry about rejection, but it will be more mentally harming to you if you don't explain your sexuality and put it out there. You should be you, cause I am sure there are going to more people who support you than don't. Heck, telling your boyfriend you are may even help cause if he doesn't mind, then he can give you advice about how to tell you mom and others. Hope this helped. You can message me if need be. I am bi myself and dealt with alot of this. So if I can help, then I'd be more than happy too.

Like I said, and please don't take this in a way that I lack patience for repeating myself, because I don't, but I will not leave him :) I'm only worried that waiting on telling him my sexuality would ruin trust between him. But, that is all. No intention on leaving him, just wanted advise on how I should bring it up. And thank you for the advice Chic! And no, I am not a polygamist, never playing on it either xD But, anyway, thank you.
