I am 15 & Today i told my parents that i am Bisexual. And that i have a boyfriend that they thought was just a friend.
My dad took it well but my mom wont talk to me..
I understand it would be hard for her but the way shes acting really hurts and i don't know what to do, If i should try and talk to her or leave her alone and let her think...
I'm just frustrated because I've always been close with my mom and shes acting like I'm not the same person...

She will find it in her heart to see that you are still the same person you were yesterday.I'm bisexual also and parents can take things overboard when someone as young as you are tell them news like that.You just have to sit her down and tell her that you are a growing girl and she doesn't know it now,but sometimes we do know whats best for us even when they think we dont.Don't be immature about it though because that can make things worse

Give her time. She's still in shock. You are her child and she will never stop loving you the same as she always has. Be yourself around her and don't avoid her. In time though, she may open up to you and tell you all that she feels. Keep the lines of communication open with her and don't shut her out completely if she has a hard time accepting what you have told her. It may take a long while, so be patient.

Congratulations on your courage to come out at such a young age. Your mom may have suspected something but it must have really taken her by surprise that it happened now, at 15. Give her some time to digest it and come to terms with it, she will always love you and will be your best friend again, but now she needs a little space to sort things out. I wish you the best and hope that you can understand your mom.

she needs time to adjust. give her space and she will miss you and regret the distance she has put between you two.
also remember how long it took you to finally come out, im sure it took you more than an day to decide right? so give her more than a day (or a week) to adjust k?
you say u 2 were close, nothing can replace that bond, she cant stay mad forever,especially over something she cant change and has no ctrl over.
u hit her with a brick today, she will recover, just give it time. and oh yeah, SHE LOVES YOU.
good luck and God bless....

Good for you. You're going to live better now. without a lie over your head. As far as your mom is concerned she probablly knew this day was coming, if you're as close as you say. let her come to you.Give her time to digest it. It may take a couple of days but this is what will define the relationship from now on, Way to go!

Hey good for you, sorry about your mum's reaction though just give her time for a while then approach her gently maybe she is worried she might not have grandkids from you? Some parents worry about crazy things just reassure her all will be fine i'm sorry but your life and at least you have been honest with her, good luck and enjoy your life :)

It's great that you are being honest with them. It's even greater that you dad is excepting you for you. Your mom is probably overwhelmed. I would talk to her about it and tell her that the fact that your bisexual shouldn't impact your relationship. Consider counseling. Hopefully you guys can rebuild your relationship and get even closer.

She will come around and realize that you are her son and she should love you no matter what you decide in life. But you are only 15. I can't believe you know you are bisexual already.

sadly you are not the same person to her one of my son's friends just went though this he had to move in here for a week to give his parents time to understand he is bi-sexual and not just looking for attention
when hes parents found out (they found out though someone on my-space) they confronted him and he told them the truth his dad walked out and was gone all night came in at 3 am drunk and angry they even tried using verses from the bible to tell him he cant be bi-sexual
your mom just needs time to think things though try talking to your dad ask him if your mom is OK
it took allot of courage to tell them "hugs" i hope everything works out for you
if you need to talk you can im me anytime
