I am currently dating my first girlfriend, we have been sneaking out and dating for almost month. Nobody in my family will mind, other than my overly religious grandparents, but I think they will get over it. None of my friends will mind, hell most of them have experimented. I love her the same way I loved all of my ex boyfriends, and I still find guys attractive. I have a fairly good idea my mum has known I am attracted to girls as well for a very long time, I have known I am attracted to girls for a long time. This is just the first time I have done anything about it. I am thinking about it as just an openess thing. Tell everyone I love the whole truth and let the cards fall where thay may. But I don't know if that is just being a little selfish and if we should just date first for a little longer to see if it works out first.
@lexyfranks,
Keep dating her there is no problem in being Bi,you can't change who you are and its not being selfish in being in love with someone of the same gender to be honest I never experimented
@lexyfranks,
If you wait until things work out, you may be waiting a long time, eh? Or you might find some other reason to delay things.
Your sexuality isn't relationship-based. It's who you are, whether you are dating someone or not. Tell people, or not, what your preferences are. But I wouldn't advise making the telling relationship-dependent.
@lexyfranks,
Lex that's really a good q. For instance

I would sooner just not have been told
@lexyfranks,
I had a few relationships with girls before I "came out". After I found a girl that I loved and had been dating for 9 months I decided to tell my parents. Their reaction? "we already knew that". It was nice to feel as though I didn't have to hide my relationships.
I say that if you are having to sneak around and it makes you uncomfortable, tell them! You never know how much love and support they have for you unless you allow them to show you.
@lexyfranks,
Lexyfranks - why don't you wait for a while? Why do you think you need to proclaim your sexuality? You have both guy and girl special friends, according to your post. No need to tell anything to anybody.
