I grew up in an extremely conservative religious environment and it was only about 3 years ago I finally admitted my bisexuality to myself. With that I also lost my faith (due to a number of other circumstances as well) and so I found myself starting from scratch. It's been rather terrifying really. Every single life decision had been based on that faith, so my entire life foundation collapsed and I've been filled with regret. Just this past summer I started telling a few select friends and family members. Mostly I've been met by accepting responses, for which I am very grateful. But I think for the religious types I've told, their acceptance is mostly because I'm settled in a hetero marriage with two kids and so I'm in the "right" place. I wish I had figured myself out earlier. I feel cheated out of life experience. Thankfully my husband has been awesome about everything and I'm doing my best to move forward and live life honestly and fully from here on out!
