i am bi, and i want to know why people think that we are "confused" i know that i am not. Why do they claim that we are just experiment with girls as a growing up process. Well i have had boyfriends that ive been in love with and ive had girlfriends that i have been in love with. how am i confused?



Second part of my question.
how do i get my mother to accept it.
i came out last year. but that was the last i have had the courage to say it in my house again. she told me i was wrong and that i was just trying to hurt and embarrass my family. and she didn't want me in her house anymore if i am going to say that. and that she could never accept it. that im telling myself to think that or that someone else is trying to convience me to be bi. i am who i am, my mother has only gay men as her freinds and she loves and accepts them...why cant she do the same with me.


im 16

People think your confused because you are young. When your 18 you will think 16 year olds are young and silly. Heck you probably think 14 year olds are young and silly. And it's ok. You are young. Hopefully, you haven't experienced what can make life hard, and have experienced what can make life great.



By the way, love at 16 is puppy love. Its emotional, heated and great. Love at 42, comes with more baggage, more thoughtfulness, good times, hard times and a settled feeling of knowing someone is there for you. And it's wonderful.



So, don't rush, take your time, get to know yourself. When you've lived enough life, on your own terms, you will learn what love is. When that happens, no one will be able to say your confused.



Ultimately, that's what really is important.

Your mom is in denial and there's nothing you can really do about it except to tell her that what you're feeling and you telling her about it isn't meant to hurt her.



Also - people think bi teens are "just confused" or "just a phase" because sometimes, it is just experimenting. and it feels safer for them to assume that. But other times it's real, and if you have that real thing, then great! When someone says that, straight up tell them in their face that its not just a phase.



Be proud! You are special and wonderful. and not just a phase.

hey. im 17 and bi. i get people all the the time saying ur confused thats why you picked both. i tell them i love both genders equally and dont think twice about it. as for my mom i never told her. im affraid to tell her because i no she will never accept it. so im planning on telling her once i move out of the house. but i think being bi is wonderful. you get a taste of both worlds and have more fun ;P

Your not confused. People just think you are because unless they are bi themselves, they find it really hard to grasp the concept.

I personally am bi, and luckily my parents don't care. Maybe try to tell her that she isn't being fair? It shouldn't matter what your preferences are, YOU know what YOU are, and you cannot change that.

Well, all I can say is goodluck.

And if she cannot accept it, move out.

:P

i think it's going to be something your mom is going to have get over on her own. its going to take time for her to accept it but hopefully, eventually she will accept you if you are still bi after a few years, because she believes its just a phase. hope this helps.
