Alright so I'm pretty new to this site and well... lifestyle. I was just curious if any of you have ever told or thought to yourself that you were a bisexual instead of full out lesbian as a cover up or a denial thing because I think that's what I'm doing right now and I just wanted some feedback on possibly how to just get it over with and accept who I am or know for sure. I hate the label thing but it's easier to tell people if I had a better idea.
I came out as bisexual when I was 18. I really wasn't, but I figured it was an easier pill for my friends to swallow rather than saying "lesbian". I had moments where I had entirely convinced myself that I was bi and still liked men sexually. But I eventually began to figure out that I didn't like men sexually at all, so when I was 21 I finally came out as a lesbian to my family and friends.
yeah, I did the same thing when I first came out. I made it clear that I was bisexual because it seemed easier to say than "lesbian." Now that I have experienced a relationship with a woman, I know that I am pretty much a lesbian and would not want to have committed relationships with men. However, sexuality is fluid. When I'm single and dating other people, I will date both men and women, though I admit that in the back of my head I'm looking for a woman to have a relationship with. I don't think you should wrap yourself up in finding the correct term that describes you, unless you're 100% sure about your sexuality.
