Hi Ryan. I was in a similar situation to you. I had a girlfriend for a few years and around your age in such time I started to think more seriously about being bisexual. I kind of think this is a tricky situation though, and it did not really work out for me. We broke up and a part of it was that she was not able to be with me because she thought I would think about guys all the time. It depends on how your relationship is and what she thinks of it. Since that ex I have been with a whole bunch of women that completely do not care, despite my occasional reluctance to tell female prospects. I would always say be honest. But as I said, it did not work out well for me. But hey, if she can not handle your sexuality, then perhaps you are just not meant to be together.
No one here knows your GF and your family better than you do. Only you can make a qualified guess about their reactions to your possible coming out as bi. I'd say that you may need a year or two of keeping it low before you get to college/university and preferably to a major metro city where people tend to be more liberal and tolerant towards being bi, gay, pansexual or whatever. People's attitude are mostly influenced by their environment. Being bi in San Francisco or LA is not the same as being bi in the proverbial hick of the woods. KD
