Question Posted Wednesday January 31 2018, 3:23 pm
I am bisexual. I am female and dating a girl. I love her very much but I am afraid of commitment and I have never held a bf for more than 3 weeks. This is my first attempt as a gay couple. I don't know what to do.
If you are a young teenager it would be very wrong to label yourself with any sexual identification.Puberty has thrown a junkyard of hormones into your body that can and usually does cause confusion as to what your body is going through, telling you and needing.
Under the category of needing many think they need to have sex when masturbation is really all they need to do to satisfy the urges their having. Nothing wrong with masturbation it is actually quite healthy and it allows on to safely learn about their body and sexual needs.
If your a young person going through puberty it is not uncommon to experiment sexually with some one of the same sex. IT is actually quite common for both girls and boys. It is both safe and allows you to learn how to approach an be approached by and to the opposite sex.
Until you have actually had sex with both sexes do not label yourself. Now is not the time to run off and have sex with a boy just to find out if your are heterosexual or not. Now is the time of your say 17 or younger to experiment and learn about your sexuality.
As for not staying in a relationship very lone I would again not worry about it if you are closer to 13 then 17 this would be perfectly normal It would also be the boys fault more than yours for reasons ow what puberty is doing to him. In another rear maybe two his self confidence will have gotten better and he will trust himself more around a girl. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

I have met plenty of bi-sexual women. I used to attend a swing club where both straight and bisexuals were in attendance.
In most cases, all these women were married to a wonderful man who knew from the start that they were bisexual and were supportive and understanding of their wife. Also, bisexual didn't mean they loved many men and many women, often it was only one. It was common to love their husband but not be able to tolerate other men. On the other hand, she didn't have to desire hooking up with lots of women and sometimes it was only one.
I don't know your age, but don't worry, you sound perfectly normal and just haven't met that one man that you could be in love with for the rest of your life while you have female lovers or one on the side. I can't say if its easier to find gay females than bisexual females. All I can say is that if you know a female to be strictly gay, then its best you be truthful from the beginning and let her know that you are bisexual and just haven't met the guy yet you want a long term relationship with but that it will happen at some point so she needs to be okay with that. A good many bi women were married before they began to seek female lovers. That seemed to work better for people rather than finding the female lover first and then adding in a bf/future husband. You may just have to learn what works best for you. But I caution you let a potential person know in the first meetup exactly what your sexual preference is. It might sound crazy to say so in the first meeting but I told men what my boundaries were and what I expected when I first met and had no problems with that. Its better to say so at first rather than later after you've grown to have deeper feelings than just attraction so there's no heart ache when finding the other doesn't feel comfortable with you being bi. remember to be yourself and not change who you are and your desires and natural tendencies just to please another person. They must be okay with it from the start dear. Best wishes to you. [ Dragonflymagic's advice column | Ask Dragonflymagic A Question ]
