This community is dedicated to the challenges that gay men and lesbian women face, both between the partners in a relationship and from other influences (family, society, etc.). Find support and talk to others who may be facing the same challenges, and share your experience.
Ever since my first boyfriend and first kiss broke up with me, I've questioned whether I was straight, lesbian, or bisexual My family doesn't realize this. Even if they did, they wouldn't listen or they'd hate me about it. I wonder, could I even be pansexual-a person who doesn't care. My best friend-or ex best friend-said she was bisexual in grade 8. She was able to come out of the closet. But, I can't find the courage to.
Mom, Dad, I'm sorry you had to find out this way.

Sorry about the breakup, I know they suck. As for being bisexual, well give it time. Everyone in their teen years goes through a period of sexual discovery. Let yours happen naturally, don't force it on yourself. If you feel drawn to a girl, great. If you feel drawn to a guy, great.
I can tell you that rushing out of the closet when you aren't even sure yourself, helps no one. There is no need to make your process of self-discovery a public spectacle, so if and when you come out, it should be after you've learned more about yourself. Might I suggest not trying to cram yourself into some label like gay, straight or bi. Just be you. Follow what feels right and let the naming of it come second.
