Alright well a about a year ago i expieremented with a girl and ended up dating her then we broke up and i hooked up with a few other girls and i actually love it haha but im not super open about it like i try to hide it as much as possible cause im in highschool and you know how people like to judge. And then there is the whole my mom thing. My sister is a striaght up lesbo and my mom knows and is cool about it but if im gay too she is gonna shit herself and feel like a bad mom. she even told me like jokingly that i wasnt aloud to be gay or she would kick me out. So know i have to date boys and not let my mom know. But im pretty sure ill im intrested in is girls. what do i do?

I am bisexual and came out to my mom about 3 and a half years ago. I came out because I was with a girl and now have been with her ever since. She wasnt happy about it and first but now my parents fully accept my girlfriend and look at her as part of the family. All any parent wants is for their child to happy. Yes, it may not be the life she would choose if it were up to her but thats okay. She will love you either way. On the same token though, before you tell her, be sure you are really interested in girls in more than just a sexual way. Alot of people are unsure if they are actually gay or curious. Im not saying thats you, but Im just saying make sure before you bring it up to your mom. Good Luck and feel free to message me anytime. [ elw5039's advice column | Ask elw5039 A Question ]
