Parent help: how do you tell your parents your bisexual? - Help.com

Have a threesome with them.

Well if you are sure that you are, how you tell them (I think) will depend on what their attitudes are about the subject. If they’re fairly liberal or even moderate, they will understand easily. If they’re ultra-conservative then it could be a more difficult conversation.

Dotspot that’s sick.

Hold up OZE, why tell them if your married anyway? I mean what difference would it make?

So if you do end up telling them what next? I hate to sound as insensitive as dotspot but..well, would you engage in bi sx then?

I agree with the last person..when u are married..
its ur huby u should be more worried abouch rather ur parents..
right
its ya lyf
dont worry abouch telling them

If they are conservative why tell them at all. is it worth breaking their hearts. I assume you don’t take your parents to strip joints. so they can’t see that activity.

But if you think someone will blurt it out over xmas dinner, get in first. start with Mum they are more sensitive she may need to ease dad into it. or advise you never to tell him ;)

I agree. It sounds like they don’t need to know. You won’t gain anything and neither will they. Does your husband know?

Do you have to tell them?

OZE, does your husband know? I really do want to help you with this even if it is a sensitive topic…

Is he pushing for a threesome then?

Yeah, I don’t see why they need to know. Thats your private life. But if it bothers you, and its important, it would probably be best to be direct and just come out with it. “I wanted you to know, I am bisexual.” Maybe your husband can come and hold your hand.

And so you feel obligated to tell your parents? Or do you just want to have to stop hiding it?

Hm, well if they will eventually find out, ease them into the idea, as for your friend, how can a close friendship last when your hiding such a big part of your life. Do whats best, but don’t compromise your morals and if possible your friendship.

But, if they arn’t going to find out, and if you can keep yourself contained around them rather then compromising that relationship then continue with what your doing, if threesomes are going to help, well, if they’ve worked before…

All this “don’t tell them if you don’t have to” business is logical enough if you still feel like you have some growing and deciding to do. But I do feel very strongly that there is great value to be had in truth and transparency. If you believe that people of alternate sexualities should be equally valued in our society, there’s a moral imperative to–whenever the time is right–be out and proud. Show the world that good people, decent people, people they know and love have alternate sexualities, and that it’s not something you should have to hide.

For myself, I’m trying to find a job that has a health insurance plan and get off of COBRA through parents once and for all. Soon as that happens, Coming Out, Take 2 is under way.

Do you know your best friend is homophobic? or are you assuming that from things she says? some people say the opposite to what they truly feel. she might think your homophobic and is trying to reciprocate.

In this case I wouldn’t blurt out you are bi. But if she is truly your best friend you can slowly introduce her to the idea without making her feel threatened which is what a homophobic person feels.

ok…my parnets know that i am bi…but since they found out…they took away my phone for about a month…then told my ex that she can not tlk to me anymore…what do i do…they don’t trust me…to do anything…
