    Ok so im 26 and only realised I was bi a few months ago I posted a couple of threads on here hoping for some advice as the LBGT community have always said how close they are and how they always help each other out and are one big happy family. However ive had nearly 100 views on my posts and not a single person has given me a scrap of advice! Just a little note to say I feel quite disappointed about my first interactions (or lack of) in the LGBT community!!:confused:

    Im sorry you have not been given the proper advice, but posts especially new ones are sometimes pulled down to the last page due well people being busy but im willing to talk, if you have any questions

    Yeah, I've had that happen to me but don't let it get you down. I might be able to give you advice but I only give out advice sparingly since I don't consider myself infallible. And plus, I'm still a newbie here too lol

    Well, most people on here are trying to seek out advice themselves, so I am sorry you had this experience, this has happened to me when I posted for some advice as well.

    And I am not sure what you are needing advice on but maybe over your bisexuality?

    For some people it is a phase, a transition, their brain is making new connections and trying to figure out what it likes (we don't like some of the same things now that we did when we were 2), trying to figure out who you are as an individual, but for some bisexuality is the end of the search, only time will tell, and feel free to express and date who ever you want and explore around out to find out who you are!
    I know some people, even with in the LGBTQ community, like to start petty little wars within our big family, this is typical of ANY sort of family regardless, you probably heard that bisexual people are fake, don't exist, or selfish, don't listen to that nonsense, some members of our family just don't get it yet, everyone is ignorant in something that is fine but some people are jerks about it.
