Rachee answered Saturday May 31 2008, 1:02 pm: She shouldn't act any different because she is bi. Bi just means you like people of the same and opposite sex. Not that you change. She still could be changing, like getting a different attitude, not because she is bi. =]]]] [ Rachee's advice column | Ask Rachee A Question ]

my short answer? at the root of everything, no, she won't be any different.
she may, after being out to herself or others, take up a crusade of sorts against a world unaccepting of her. she may talk often about how she feels between the homosexual world and the straight world. she might get angry that no one will take her seriously. in that regard she may be different.
however, if you're her friend, you will likely stay her friend even through these annoying transition periods where all a person like me wants to do is scream that they're no different than anyone else. I hope you will. I hope you'll listen to her genuinely talk about why she likes someone male or female and not push out the conversations about women because she probably doesn't have anyone to talk to besides her straight friends about when she gets a crush or a new love. if it helps, push gender aside in these times and just see your friend as being excited about someone, not some man or some woman. there's a good chance that she doesn't even think of them in terms of gender.
in the end, though, all love is some sort of love and I hope you'll come to accept that in your friend, that she has an overwhelming desire to love the ones she does love, not just the men she loves. [ Moop's advice column | Ask Moop A Question ]
HonestWealth answered Saturday May 31 2008, 4:47 am: Hello,
Wow, are you ok? You seemed really bothered by someone's sexual preference.
It should not matter to you what her sexual preference is unless you plan to have sex with her.
People experience life differently. Therefor people change. I am not the same person I was a year a ago and neither are you! You may look the same, but I bet you have changed somethings about yourself, right?
The best thing for you to do is talk to the girl and get to know her.
I had a friend in high school that I hung with ALL the time. She was straight when we met. About a year into our friendship she cheated on her boyfriend with a girl. I had no idea she was bi. I didn't stop being her friend because she was bi. I stopped being her friend because she cheated on her boyfriend, who also happened to be a close friend I had known much longer than her.
The point is, never try to figure someone out according to race, color, sex preference or religion. Always judge them on their actions and moral ethics. Befriend this girl even if she is bi. How do you know you are not bi yourself? Have you tried it? I haven't yet, and don't plan on it, but you never know what the future holds.
MetalCowboy answered Friday May 30 2008, 10:21 pm: No fear, my friend :). Most people act the same. With the acception of some male gays. Anyway, I doubt there will be much difference. Most bi's act the same as straits. They might state they are bi's or join bi-gay enthusiest groups, or pride shirts, or talk about gay rights, but thats basically it. This is only if they are confident about sexual orientations. Others act the same way as if they were strait. [ MetalCowboy's advice column | Ask MetalCowboy A Question ]
LiTTLEGiRLBLUE answered Friday May 30 2008, 9:43 pm: Well I have a friend that recently came out to us and she told us that she's bi. She's still the same she hasn't change with us. And it's like she never told us anything. Not all of them change, but some of them do. I think it's because now that people know, they feel more comfortable. But if you feel like your friend has changed, talked to her about how you feel.
