I'm 20 years old, a girl, and for 6 years I have denied to my family that I am anything but straight. My mom and dad, as well as my brother, have teased about it, but deep down, I do have romantic feelings, as well as sexual desire for those of the same sex. Namely for one girl in particular who I love and care about almost as much as I do my boyfriend. I have stayed in what I call my own closet, because many lesbians are not accepting of bisexuals, but also I am afraid of admitting to myself that I may be bisexual, and of coming out in any way to a family of conservative Christians who I know this would devastate. But I feel trapped. I don't know what to do or who to talk to about what I feel.
I think you should think about it for a while and even experiment a little to figure out who you are. Even if your family is devastated they will still love you, I would also suggest coming out to a friend to get your feelings out and feel less trapped.
