Hey!

If you're wondering about my user-name, it's actually the name of an awesome book, by the same author who wrote "Does my head look big in this?"
But the title seemed to apply to me, and I actually have a list of the 10 things I hate most about me, it's up on my Myspace if you're curious.

I've been giving advice to my friends and family for as long as I can remember, anything from telling my Dad to stop smoking when I was 3 (He finally stopped when I was 5) to helping out friends whose parents were splitting up.

I've found I have a talent for it, and I was recently awarded the title of "Empath" by one of my closer friends. Apparently this was because of my abilty to understand people and the way they think, and why they do things etc.

When I graduate I plan on getting a degree in pyschology at The University of Western Australia, and possibly moving to either England or the USA to work as a shrink.

Aside from giving advice, I'm into any kind of Rock/Alternative/Metal/Punk music, along with a bit of Hip Hop and R&B. I play acoustic guitar, dance, sing (very badly) and I'm into any form of art.
I'm the middle child in my family, with a younger and older brother who are 10 years apart, the elder being 17 and the younger 7.

So yeah, even though I'm new to this site, I have plenty of experience, so feel free to ask whatever, and I'll help you out to the best of my ability.

Okay; so i'm Bi, ive known this for a whille now.
i finally told my mom about it. she didn't really say much. but i've ALWAYS hung out w/ Lesbians & Bisexuals. but now she thinks it's a big deal [now that she knows i like girls too].
what the hell.

what should i do/say to her? (link)
I say this way too often.

Sit down and have a nice loooooong chat with your mom. Explain to her that your sexuality doesn't change who you are as a person...etc, etc.

And I know a lot of people who have this weird, twisted idea of what a gay or bi person is. I know a few, and they're awesome people.

So why not introduce your mom to some of your friends? Let her see that they're not evil, brainwashing monsters who are forcing her precious little girl to do evil things.

And if she's worried about you dating other les/bi girls that you're friends with...WELL THAT'S THE IDEA OF BEING A BI AINT IT?

Explain to her EXACTLY how you feel, and don't let her get a word in until you've finished. GAG her if you have to! Communication is the key.
