I'm bi. For a while i considered myself just bi curious but its obvious that i am bi. I feel like i have to tell my mom because we are close and there isnt much she doesnt know about me but im scared. at one point i was dating a guy who was bi and as soon as she found out she went into this rant about how "you cant be bi its just not right. your either straight or your not. bi people either just want attencion or they are gay and havnt fully come out of the closet."
those of you who are bi/gay how did you tell your parents?
(btw. im almost 17 incase u were wondering)

If you think your mom might have a negative reaction, maybe it'd be better to wait to tell her until you're out of her house and on your own. That way if you do decide to tell her, and the situation turns negative, you can leave.
From what you've said about your mom's way of thinking, I personally wouldn't tell her until you had your own place and your own space, but that's just me.

It's difficult to tell your parents your bi, I told my mother and she said that it was just a phase... if you really want to tell your mother, then be calm about it and if she gets upset, don't scream back at her. It's hard for people to understand somtimes, so it may take a bit, but hopefully she will come to accept your sexuality.
I would tell her when you are comfortable, especially with yourself, and if your not, then wait.

I'd let her find out the hard way, sometimes a good shock could do the trick than just telling them. Let her know nothing they say is going to change who you are and how you think. If she kicks you out, then let her know she is a unfit mother then. She should careless about sexuality and more of safety and where you are going in life as for career and what not. Maybe when your really mad at her, bring your girlfriend over and make out right there in her face, lol(NOTE: This is for the strong hearted only)

i think we face same problem here. i can sympathize. 4laugh
anyway, i think it's better that you'll let her when you're already independent, just to be prepared. I'm actually thinking of the same strategy for myself. lol

it might take her a while to accept it, but it sounds like she loves you. so she would learn to accept it.

Yeah, I would suggest waiting until you're 18 to tell her just to be on the safe side. I made the decision to tell my parents when I had basically just turn 15 and now I'm 17 but still lives in hell. It just really depends if you want to take the risk in your mother not accpeting it...when I think about my decision I do wish I didn't tell them at times...but I'm happy with my decision because I wouldn't have the amazing friends I have now. Funny thing is I'm gay, but all my friend (best friends) are straight. I have a lot of guy friends that are very straight and they tell me everything, it's pretty amazing knowing that they trust me that much.
It's all up to you honestly, but it is a hard decision.

I have this problem too... But, IF I even tell my mom at all, it will be after I move out. The only people that know are a few of my friends and my boyfriend. (he likes the idea of course, lol)
