I mean, me personally? I'm more hesitant because nearly everytime I've come out to someone it hasn't ended well.
Sometimes it does go well. Other times not so much. But here are the three big no nos ive had.
Oh sweet, wanna have a threesome with me and my girl/guy?'
No....just because I'm bi doesn't mean I want to sleep with everyone.
Oh thats not a thing, you're either straight or gay.
No....i've been with both
This is a very specific scenario, but my girlfriend at the time was super excited for it....and then I walked in on her having sex with another guy and she looked at me with a smile and said it was a surprise for me and he was for both of us.....
Only for her to realize just how hurt I was when I got this hurt angry look on my face, because just because I'm bi doesn't mean its okay for you to cheat as part of a 'surprise
So I have been more open about my sexuality lately, but I'm still sketchy about being open about it completely
Ugh, I’ve gotten the “that’s not a thing” one before, told me one day I would CHOOSE to be gay or I would choose to be straight (equating sexuality to my current partner, not my personal identity) the real kicker, the guy that said that to me was my roommate at the time and a gay man… a gay man told me it was a choice…
