My coming out experience

Hi everyone
So I came out as bissexual to my parents last year, and my mon just sort kind of asked me if I liked girls and even though I didn’t plan on telling her that soon I didn’t want to lie.
Fast forward a couple of months later and it’s like they don’t acknowledge my bisexuality, my mom has a hard time seeing this part of me because in her head I’m straight and anything other than that it’s ugly or sad. I think she just doesn’t want to deal with it honestly. I don’t try to hide it but it’s difficult to look at her the same.
And I don’t know what to do in this situation because it’s not like I can make her try to understand, so I just pretend that I am not hurting when everything she says makes me feel like she doesn’t love me whole.

I'll never come out to my parents. They would definitely cut me out of their lives. I want to be in their lives.

@BlackPhillip Meanwhile I never thought my parents would kick me out I understand what is like to feel as if you have to be ready to loose everything. I would definitely recommend to always put your safety first and if you’re not ready to come out to your parents, just know that there is a world out there with people that you can be yourself completely. If you need someone to talk to I’m here❤️
