I am bisexual, and I told my friends this on a night out. Now, everybody knows about it and the boys won't go for me and neither will the girls! What can I do?
I tried to get off with someone last week and when somebody I know told her and she got scared and said that she couldn't trust me. I don't want to just be able to be in homosexual relationships but it seems like it can be my only option in life! And I certainly don't want that.Can you give advice to a bisexual?
I'm sorry to hear about that.
Your friends were not very supportive and it was not necessary to go telling other people. Friends should be friends unconditionally - unconditional friendship.
It sounds like you need new friends.
You'll meet new friends and people will be more understanding. Of course, the gay scene might be more open to bisexuals than the mainstream scene. (I know on here lots of people post saying how anti-bisexuals the gay scene is, but I've not every found that - at least not London.)
Best wishes.

:)Can you give advice to a bisexual?
Deffinately sounds like you need new friends, your friends will always love you and accept you, for the girls being scared its not a suprise not all of them will be comfortable around you thinking you maybe into them. But forget them all live your life and find your parter, boy or girl who ever makes you happiest.
How about advice from a bisexual?
Its not your only option, but you have to come to terms with the fact that a lot of people will not understand your bisexuality. Believe me. You have to learn how to answer questions that people will direct you, or the comments you will get. If you need any more support, there are bisexual support communities, shybi (for women) and shybi-guys (well, for guys).
I'm Bisexual and all my friends know i am. I have been in plenty of realtionships with the poeple knowing about my sexuality. I can't help but notice these people you call friends may not be that if they have the nerve to spread around your sexual orientation. Now same sex realtionships are great but boy and girl are good too. Now be yourself and if they have a problem with your sexuality they have a problem with you. What gets me is people think Bisexuals may dump a guy for a girl or viceversa but what about same sex realtionships or boy and girl they could break up to date someone else so dont just point the finger at BISEXUALS people. I hope i helped sweetie xx
Oh no! that's an awful first reaction, I feel for you. I thought when I came out to my family and friends that they would all be really happy for me but I got a bad reaction too. Nobody was very keen on my news at all, and I haven't really had a relationship since (though it's only been a few months).
All I can say is well done for telling your friends - that is a brave thing to do and probably several notches up the maturity scale than a lot of them are. I think that's probably why they are finding it hard to understand, they don't really understand their own sexualities yet, I bet.
Maybe you can look further afield when searching for a partner, until you find someone understanding that you like.
What you did was brave. Well done!
Give it time, and your friends will realise you are still the same person you always were. I think you may find that if you are open with potential partners about your bisexuality, you'll find that very few women will have a problem. If you keep it a secret you are bound to have problems if a partner finds you've been keeping things from them. that's when issues of trust may arise.
Just because the people you are currently hanging around with are struggling to come to terms with it does not mean you have to change yourself. Meet new people who will not even know that you are bisexual you do not have your friends blurting it at them which is likely to scare most people you meet first off.
its kind of hard to be in a relationship with bisexuals because theres always that ';what if';. what if you leave that person for the other sex. i personally dont like to date bisexuals for that reason. but i guess you just have to find someone that is bisexual as well. good luck
LET THIS BE A LESSON TO U .....U DON'T HAVE TO TELL EVERYONE EVERYTHING ABOUT URSELF..O AND BY THE WAY HOW DID U KNOW U CUD TRUST HER IT WORKS BOTH WAYS JUST LIKE U (I'M SORRY I JUST THOUGHT OF THAT) THOSE SO CALLED FREINDS R IDIOTS IT'S A GUD THANG UR NOT GONNA BE STUCK WITH THEM FOREVER ....AND THIS ''DON'T WANT THAT THING'' I SUGGEST U GET OVER IT AS IT'S ALWAYS GONNA BE THERE WEATHER U LIKE IT OR NOT
Unfortunately there are still small minded people out in the world but don't mind them I'm sure you'll find an open minded person who will except you for who you are, just like I have
this isnt something u just randomly tell people hon. You shouldnt have told any1 because people can be so cruel sometimes. I have some close friends who I will never tell that Im bi...ever....people just love gossip!
They are friends?
Just chill, the right person will come along for yo one day, but perhaps getting a new social circle would not go amiss also contact a LG BT group, you will meet all sorts there!
it is not your only option, be yourself. it sounds like you need new people to hang around.
