I am pure lesbian and have been for sometime but i just came out a few weeks ago. I told my mom and at first i think she thought i was joking cause now she is all awkward. I don't like guys at all but i don't want my parents to hate me. I am thinking about dating guys just so they will be happy. Who cares if i am happy right? At least that is how it feels. I have a gf and i haven't told my parents about her yet. I think it is too soon. She is bi though and i am concerned about that. I mean i realize and respect that she likes both but i don't want her to be dating me and some other guy. I don't see how she can be commited to both. Anyway i hope you guys can help me out. I got way off topic but hey shit happens.

" Being bi and being committed to one person is the same as being straight or gay and being committed to one person. You're giving up other women, are she just happens to be giving up both women and men. "

" i dont understand why many people do not trust bi people. my working definition is that bi people like men and women, but not that they need to be with both at the same time. if you can trust her, then there shouldnt be anything to worry about. good luck with your parents. they should come around in due time. but i would not date guys just to make them happy, because you would be miserable. hope all goes well for you "

" I have to believe that different things work for different people. I've been bi ever since I was 13. since then I've dated (and had sex) with boys and girls and at the same period of time. I never had either a bf or a gf object, but I can see how some "pure" lesbians might think a girl that has been with a guy is "unclean". However, I've never had that problem. Just my personal thoughts. Jamiesue "

" As far as your parents go, I would do whatever you want to do. It's not good for you to date guys just because your parents want you to. If you aren't interested in dating guys, don't. That's the best advice I can give, and I wish you the best. "
