    I have recently come out at my school as bisexual. I've had a few problems though. People don't seem to take me seriously. They think I want attention because everyone else at school is gay (I'm serious. I'd say half of my rather large group of friends is gay or bisexual). They think my behavior doesn't "mesh" with that of other bisexuals. They think it means I'm really attracted to guys but wouldn't mind a threesome with a girl. They think I'm greedy. They think I'm having sex with my roommate, who is also bisexual, but we aren't because she's practically my sister.

    All I know is that I'm attracted to girls, and I'm attracted to guys, and I can see myself in a relationship with both. As far as I'm aware, that's all that the word "bisexual" signifies.

    Then, there's the problem of there being almost no out lesbians or bisexuals. There are some that I know of, but they're a)not really out, b)in a relationship or c)coveted by someone else (friends, you know, and you don't go after friend's crushes). At the moment, I'm leaning towards girls. As in, I really am not attracted to guys in the slightest right now, which has led me to have to put down some otherwise fine individuals.

    Anyways, I've just been feeling kind of trapped. My school is so open, and so liberal, that no one thinks I'm having any problems with coming out. And I'm not, it's just that I need someone to talk to, and no one thinks I need it. And I've talked my roommate's ear off anyways. I guess that's why I'm here. I just need an outlet that I know other people will read.

    Honestly? If you're actually bisexual, not having much in common with other bi girls in school is probably a good sign. Most of them will give it up. I had a similar thing in school and college, where all the really gay-looking guys that claimed to be bi and wore nailvarnish and such would insist that I couldn't possibly be gay. I can only put it down to sexuality being a haircut to them. They pretty much all got girlfriends and get embarassed if you mention bisexuality to them now.

    yeah im not your typical gay guy.. and neither is my love interest (soon to be bf thanx to erzebet1961.. which i need to tell u about sister!) we dont really blend into the whole gay scene.. i like to be myself.. i dont act gay just so ppl will believe me.. people eventually found out on their own.. they thaught that my gay friend and i were dating.. we werent but thats how ppl found out.. but who cares if they don't believe your bi.. you don't need to prove yourself to anyone.. and they cant say u didnt tell them.. just be yourself and dont worry about everyone else.
