I could be wrong but I don't think mom understands what being bi means. She is probably uncomfortable with your sexuality and not knowing any other way to show it throws digs at you when she can.



I don't know if it will help but maybe sitting mom down and explaining to her that while you may like same sex, sex you also like male, female sex too. If you know that you will someday marry a man then tell her, if your plans are not to marry or to marry a female then tell her that as well. Try to make her understand why being bi fits you. Education sometimes can be the solution to many problems.


There is not much you can do about any jealousy your mom may have towards your Uncle. It probably stems from her own failed marriage. If anything is going to help her here it is going to be getting back into dating and finding herself someone she can plan a future with. If you can help her with this then do so. If you can't then just roll with it and enjoy your relationship with your Uncle and his family.


As for your dad. He will always be your dad regardless of the marital relationship. You have a right to have him in your life just as he has a right to have you in his life. So the answer to moms question as to why? In my view would simply be; he is my dad and I love him.

by what you have wrote it sounds like it is just you and your mother so i imagine you are getting older and she feels you are pulling apart. she prob things she wont get to be a grandmother is you are bi. She is jealous beacuse her brother is happy and she is not. you need to help her make friends or spend more time with friends.
