It would help if we knew how old you are. If you are under 18 and still at home, you don't need to tell your parents right now.
First, you have to become comfortable with yourself. Right now, you're dealing with the side effects of homophobia. Homophobia wants you to be quiet, deny who you are, spend years trying to "change" your natural sexual orientation and be miserable and broken. You need to accept yourself. Do that by meeting other gay and bi people your own age. Try visiting some gay websites and I don't mean pornographic ones. Try pflag.org to begin with. You need to hear other messages and opinions besides the anti-gay ones you've heard forever.
Sex is just one part of sexual orientation and you don't need to worry about that now. Get comfortable with yourself first. Date men and women when you are old enough to do that. Get to know them and see who you fall in love with.
You will know when it's right to tell your parents. It's not the right time for you to do that yet.
God bless you.

You're admitting you think you're bi, so you aren't completely in denial with yourself. The key to becoming comfortable with it is to educate yourself on the subject. Join a local gay support group if you can, get to know other gay people and you will realize there is nothing wrong with you, and love is natural. Yes, there are a lot of bigots out there who try to say you're sick and you need help just because you love differently than they do, but that doesn't mean they're right. Don't listen to them. Do what brings you happiness and ignore anyone that tries to ruin that happiness. In the words of Eleanor Roosevelt, no one can bring you down without your permission.
When the time comes for you to tell your parents, just sit them down and say you have something to tell them. A real parent will love their children no matter what.

You have to accept yourself. That's all I can tell you. Just because people say it is wrong, doesn't mean that it is. Think about black people in the pre-1960s era. During that time, it was wrong to be black, but did that mean that it was actually wrong to be that way? NO. The same rules apply here, except with sexual orientation.
And if you don't feel comfortable telling your parents, then don't. I'm not. Just do it when (if ever) you are comfortable.
God bless.

the 1st situation to do is admit it to your self and are available to words with the reality that like the rest this could be a ailment, and you are able to no longer look after it on your guy or woman. although, you're in an extremely stable place. you haven't any longer had this for that long and the behaviors could be reversed. the best situation to do is confer with a expert. although, by way of fact you're scared to accomplish that, there are a super number of websites accessible with records on a thank you to help you quit. yet you may desire to comprehend that it is an irrational situation you're doing. Its all on your head. If i've got been you i might improve what I consume by ability of periods known until you get decrease back to the quantity you have been eating until now. or you are going to be able to desire to experience ill. yet you are going to be able to desire to talk to somebody!!!!!!!! Please do this, this is a controversy of psychology no longer a lot purely a habit

you are who you are dude, the longer it takes for you to accept it the worse it gets, you're not the first one to go through this and certainly not the last. if you are bi just take a small step by accepting it. telling your parents shouldnt matter to you yet if your still young. these days anything not heterosexual is generally accepted by many so dont worry so much unless your surrounded by religious nuts (you know who im talking about right?). dont let them get to you they are as significant to you as a bad hair day, youll have them but only for a short time.

you should never make a decision based on what other's think hun. only make a decision based on what you think. if you think theres nothing wrong with this great! and coming out will be hard for you hun, i won't lie about that. when i came out and announced that i'm bi i was as nervous and a junkie on withdrawl. coming out doesn't have to be poetic like they portray it in movies and on television. jus say something like, "mom, dad i need to talk to you. i want you to know that i love you and i hope you love me too. i've been doing alot of soul searching and i've come to know that i'm bi. i hope this won't change anything and i hope you will stand behind me as much as you can."
i wouldn't say "i think i'm bi" because most people will say "well thinking it doesn't make it true." you say your bi and i believe you.another thing i wouldn't say is "i've been doing alot of thinking" i'd say "iv'e been doing alot of soul searching." when people say "i've been thinking and i've found i'm bi or gay" people will say pretty much the same thing as what they say when someone says i think i'm bi or gay. well i guess in away it does have to be poetic, but not like it is portrayed. best of luck :)
