Feeling confused

I always come back to the same thought. Am I bisexual? I’m really scared, confused and reluctant. I have been about on and off for 2 years now and I just have no idea. I’m a Christian so people around me are against people who are in the lgbtq+ community so you can see why it’s hard.

Know this. Your God exists in a lot of places and if those who attend your church try to block you from Him, there' are other, welcoming places that hope you find them one day. Don't fear losing you God becasue he'd never lose you and don't fear the judgment of those who should know their holy scripture well enough to understand theirs is just a grave a sin.

That said, take things slowly. You're literally at the dawn of your exploration of womanhood and the journey takes a lifetime. I'd only suggest not worrying about labels, categories, names or things like that - they follow us all through life if we let them. You're unique and the way in which and who you love will be just as unique.

If you feel a yearning to explore other women, your opportunity will come along. If you're not sure and simply want to live a a state of fluidity, have at it. I've live a whole life like that and have no regrets. One thing I can tell you - which you can't appreciate for years to come - is that the crushing weight of others' opinions and judgments turns out to be nothing but an illusion. Vapor.

Live the life you want. If it means standing apart from the crowd, well, no great person in history was called a sheep. I promise you - and I know there are people who'll back it up - any struggle you have to get to your best life will reward you with a life greater than anything you could have imagined. Good luck.

Thank you for all you’re lovely comments. I’m not saying all Christians are against the lgbtq community but the Christians I’m around and that are my friends believe that if you act on the feelings you have with the same gender, that’s when you are committing sin.

I have been thinking about this for a while but not completely sure. I don’t want my friends to leave me and I’m scared to want to find out if I am bi or not because of many different reasons. I have no idea if I’m making sense.

That's for you to decide. Just don't make it conditional on the acceptance or validation of a small number of people around you. True Christianity is about the celebration of love in all its wonderful forms and there are plenty who will not judge or criticise you. x

Hi, I identified as bisexual and I just realized that myself a couple of years ago. I wish I could have a more deeper story about how I found out but honestly? I think it was just seeing so many beautiful girls on Tiktok lol.
I guess I never really labeled myself as totally straight and was always open to other possibilities.
If you think you’re bisexual that’s something only you can have a say in it and even though it’s scary sometimes I think it can be also really fun to take your time to figure it out, you know? To be able to recognize what you like and who makes you feel butterflies.
Just know that you have a community outside of your home that loves you and accepts you for who you are.

It is understandable to have all those feelings. Ultimately only you know if you’re bi. Just know there is nothing wrong with you if you are. There is a whole community of wonderful people who will accept you as you are.

Do the people around you really need to know what happens in your bedroom??? 🤔
