Hi everyone, I'm a bisexual female who is marrying a wondering man on christmas. I'm finally coming to terms with my sexuality and, lemme tell you, it's stressful. My family is Christian, and I was raised Christian. My fiance's father is the pastor of my fucking church. I hope many of you understand why I have been struggling. My fiance knows, and he is perfectly ok with it. He lets me talk..and since keeping this a secret since the 8th grade, I have had a lot to say. He doesn't fetishize anything, he just listens. I've also told some people outside of my family, and every time I do I feel so scared. I know I'll never come out to my family. But yeah, this is something I need help with. I need support from somewhere, anywhere really. Besides my fiance, I'm pretty alone in all this. So, anyways..hi. I'm here, and I can't believe I'm actually going to try and be ok this part of me. It's scary.
Hi there! Welcome to the forums. it sounds like you've been through a lot, but you're not alone! Everyone here is friendly and supportive so you should find some great advice.
Hello and welcome Take part... ask questions... people like to help (&&&) You might think about opening another thread, not in the welcome section... and maybe reading up a few other threads, you are not alone, there are quite a few others in similar situations. (*hug*)
Hai. I just wanted to say, I'm also not coming out to my family because they're all Christians and my dad is like an elder or something at the church. It's hard, I know. Keeping it a secret since 2004 for me,
It is isn't it? I have a lot going on in my head, and i'm trying to fight it all and come out comfortable with myself.
Yeah, I asked my girlfriend today, and she thinks I should wait for a better time. I don't know what to do...
HI I am new to all of this too.. extremely lonely , confused, and don't know what to do. Would love to chat with someone if availblibe :-(
Secrets are hard no matter what they are. Trying to come to terms with who you are isn't always easy, especially with the added pressures that faith (or other's faith) can bring. I was raised Roman Catholic...I get it! My family, eventually, dealt with it as well as expected for their beliefs. Hang in there! Continue working on loving YOU. Glad you have an understanding guy but I understand your need for other outlets. I think the people here are your best answer! :icon_bigg
