Me

A small part of myself is that I am bisexual. I have known this for many years, been involved with women and men all my life. I happened to fall in love with my husband and he asked me to marry him, I wanted to have a family and raise kids, I thought this would be the best way to do it. My husband knows I am attracted to woman, it does not bother him. I am committed to him and our marriage, even though I am attracted to everyone, does not mean I am out having sex with everyone.
I never felt like I was understood in the lesbian community, with the rampant thought of bisexuals are in denial about being gay, they seemed to think I was hiding. I am 41 years old, I know who I am, I know what I like and I know what I am.
I am a bisexual woman, in a committed relationship and I don't really care what other people think. It is sad that I can not find support or understandings from other same sex loving people, and then again most of my "straight" friends know how I feel, but they do not understand either. With gays and lesbians wanting equal rights (which I support whole heartily) You would think that lesbians could accept people like myself, I am not in denial, I am not "on the fence" I am attracted to everyone, male or female, it is just who I am.

OMG you mean your not confused? LOL


I support you! I understand, it SUCKS that we don't have the support from the Gay/Lesbian community!

I have just have to accept the fact that if someone doesn't like me because of whatever, it is their loss, although the sexuality kinda makes it hard to make new friends when there are so many close minded people in this world!

I like to think that people are attracted to people and that gender is secondary.

I have no issue with your sexuality.

Hugs

I'm a little late to the party here, but, um, please don't lump all lesbians together in one group. I don't give a flying you know what what someone is. Straight, bi, gay/lesbian, doesn't matter at all. Sexuality is a continuum (sp?), so you're in the middle. Not a big deal to me. All I care about is whether or not someone is a good, decent, nice person.
