So I've recently realized that I love everyone. I don't care if you are a man or woman, to me love is love. I identify as bisexual because I'm still not sure that anything else really describes me. That being said I came out to a close friend & (thanks to them letting me crash with them until I can get a place) i am completely uprooting myself from the life & people I've always known and moving to a much more populated city area. I am currently in a very rural, narrow minded area & no one here would accept me for who I truly am. I'm just nervous because I've lived where I currently am all my life & at 34 I am starting over almost completely alone. It's scary!
Be you and be awesome. Although it's scary, I wish you happiness, freedom, and fulfillment in your new life. I'm bi too. To me, the label is very empowering. Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one, but I know I'm not. You aren't the only one, either. One thing that has helped me is volunteering at my local LGBT center. It helps to make me feel a part of the LGBT community. Perhaps you could look into whether your new city has something like that. Most of my volunteer work has been simple tasks - helping set up for PrideFest and sitting with other volunteers putting together condom packages for the disease-prevention distribution effort. But the conversations and friendships with the fellow volunteers are really valuable to me. Just a thought. Be you, be awesome! (*hug*)
Go for it, being bi or pan can be great fun. I agree that the gender of the body doesn't matter, it's the person inside that shell that matters, and a few attractive bits on the outside to get my attention. LOL. Volunteer, hit the local clubs, get to know the community there, get out there, enjoy being you.
I admire you for knowing what you want and going for it. A lot of the s_ _ t in life could be avoided if we all had your courage.
