How do i tell my parents that im bi-sexual?

Answer 1

That might be of the hardest things to do, I never told my parents and to tell the truth I'm sorry I didn't. See by telling them your taken charge of your life and telling them your going to live it the way you need too. If I was to have a chance to tell my parents I would do 2 letters and seal them and one would say Dear Mom & Dad I can't thank you enough for accepting me for who I am and I hope you know I love you. The other would say Dear Mom & Dad I know this is hard for you to understand at this time but I hope you always remember I love you and that will never change, I know you love me and hope when the shock is over you will know I am not like this to hurt you but I'm like this because this is me and I hope you will understand. Then tell them and if they get upset and flip hand them the 2nd letter and if they accept it hand them the first letter..

I wish you luck I know how hard this is being I wasn't able to complete this on my own.

Answer 2

curious,
I wouldn't tell them. Either let them figure it out ( It's possible that they did) or let them get hit in the face with it. People that are heterosexual don't usually go around and tell everybody, they just indicate it.

Someone might ask, " What are you doing with yourself."

You might say," I have this girlfriend that I go to the raceway with and we stay until it's finished. We erally have become great friends and we hang out together all the time."

Now things might start ticking in their minds with something like that. Depending on their personality they might be abrupt, or they might start talking about other things, or they might want to meet her. That's when they might find out. But it's on their terms and their comfort level.

This is not saying that you aren't being proud of you realtionship with whoever it is you are with, it's only coping with a difficult situation in the best way possible. By doing so you respect them, and show how subtle you can be at the same time.

I think that you wouldn't have asked the questions if you didn't feel some kind of tension about it. I'm not trying to offend you with this answer, I;m just trying to give you ideas of how to go about it tactfully. I really hope I helped.

Answer 3

Not easy. First, why do feel they need to know? Your sexual life is your own. Have they been asking questions or hinting about who you're seeing socially? There are activities I engage in that I am definitely not telling my parents about because I'm worried that they might not understand and somehow feel it was their fault.

If you really need to tell them, sit down with both of them and tell them. Let them know that this is your decision and your choice. Reassure them that it wasn't them or how they raised you (presuming this is a true statement). Not knowing how your parents view sex and related activities, this is not the best advice I can give but honesty is usually the best way to deal with these things.

Answer 4

Well you sexual life is yours, I am not sure why you would want to tell them that you are Bi-sexual. Now I maybe mistaken, as I am sometimes but ,Bi-sexual is... "a person that like to have sexual relationships with both sexes." , that is how I understand it. If you are Bi then why do you think you need to tell them how and who you make love to. Now if you only like women then that is different. Just tell them, if they love you as I am sure they do they will accept it and move on with their lives and you can move on with yours.

Not to say it will not effect them, but they will come around. My family had a homosexual male in it and once the shock was over every thing continued in our lives and he was accepted.

But Bi-sexuality is a little different. In your case you care about men, not just women. Does your parents tell you about their sexual tendencies?

I think if you were dating a man to wed, that it would be more important for you to tell him about your sexual leanings.

But hey if you need to tell your parents you are Bi-sexual then just tell them... refer to the section of shock, but soon they will come around. Good Luck

Answer 5

Why? Keep your life private for now, until you are serious with someone that eventually, there's no other choice but to tell since the parents will see this person, in a regular basis. Dont create conflict, when not needed. Enjoy life, look for the right person.

Answer 6

I would tell them and alot of gay people (myself) would have came out as a bi-sexual to soften the blow but, I understood that I would have to live up to what I said and wouldn't like to hurt them again, since I knew that coming out that I was gay, disappointed them anyways.

Answer 7

I must say i am wondering the same thing. As someone who is going through the EXACT same thing you are, i can honestly and fully say i can relate. i however, am forced to come out due to the fact that if i wish to keep going to groups and ect for people like me (which i believe there should not be a line there, but society has done so) i need to tell them, tomarrow to be exact. i only hope mine goes well, and so does yours, but if you wish, contact me on yahoo and i can tell you how it goes.

Answer 8

Surprise them with a cake. Let the icing read: Mom & Dad, your daughter is a bi-sexual. It will be memerable, that I swear.

Answer 9

Start blo.wing mom.
And forget the stupid religious nuts. let them pray to their paper god. He hasn't answered a real prayer yet, don't worr yabout there crap now. But seriously, if yo uare happy that way, then tell your parents. If they can't accept it, then they are not going to be capable of showing the love you need.

Answer 10

DON'T unless they ask. As a parent, I would NOT want to know something like that, unless, of course, it's causing you to have suicidal thoughts or something like that. If everything is going fine and you're happy, keep it to yourself.
