Told my mom and i feel horrible


Fluffy Pinkie

Well today i decided to come clean and tell my mom about me being Bi-Sexual. Yesterday i told my friend that i was Bi-Sexual and that i had been so for two years and i told him i was scared to tell my family about it, Well after really thinking about it i try to stay close to my mom so i figured to tell her about my sexuality and that's were things went bad. First off she did better then i thought she just got quiet for a moment and then said she had a feeling i was Homo-sexual. The thing is i really feel like i'm Bi-Sexual and not just saying i'm Bi-sexual to make it easier on myself or others! I really feel like i could go either way, Since i'm more worried about personality then if the person i like is a man or woman, Then my mom kept refering to me as being gay, which i kept telling her i'm BI-Sexual! Me and my mom are Christians and she's told her view on her Belief that Being Homo-Sexual is wrong and sinful, and I told her because i wanted her to be Prepared in case i have a partner that is a man. After getting home she then said how could i let a man do stuff to me and said that in a few years i would just be honest and admit i'm Homo-Sexual, and i just shut up about it because i wanted to cry. I'm home now and i hate myself so bad right now, I feel so dirty and i'm not even going to tell the rest of my family because i know they would be so ashamed of me sad.png , I really hate myself and wish i was gone, I really feel like

 

i'm at fault here and i just feel so bad right now, I just hope my mom and others understand i'm still the same person and this shouldn't effect how they feel about me, But how can i when i hate myself right now and just wish i was gone, So if anybody wants to talk feel free to send me a PM or it'll be better if you try to hit me up on skype I just don't want to feel anymore!

You  are not at fault here. How can it be your fault that is your sexual preference? The fault here, and do not take this the wrong way, is on your mom. She clearly is not taking the time to understand. I have yet to tell my family that I am Bi-sexual, but if they want to think anything wrong of it, then fine. I cannot change the way they view it, as simple and close minded as it may be. All you need to worry about is accepting yourself. In time, your family should get used to it, if you decide to tell them. 

 

Seriously, you are truly a great guy and you seem to be on all the right tracks. Why should anyone think less of you? Hell, it is great that you were open about it. About the religious thing, I am an atheist so I could not care less in that regard, but there is only one part of the bible that goes against homosexuality, and that is Levitacis (Obviously spelled wrong) and in that same book, it is strictly against divorce, the mixing of fabrics, and many other things that people do all the friggin time. 

 

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with being bi-sexual. I was so confused about my sexuality for so many years and now, I feel so much better that I have accepted my own bi-sexuality within myself. That is what you must do. I truly wish you luck, because you are a nice guy and you deserve happiness. :)

Aren't you blowing this out of proportion?  Your mom believes what she believes but it sounds like she still loves and cares about you.  Isn't that what's important?

 

If anything I would have thought that knowing that she would still care about you would make you happier.

yeah, i'm not saying i'm mad at her or anything and i feel she took it better then i excpected her to, It's just a little hard for me consdering my churchs stance on it and the fact i've been going there all my life.

I have a friend who is Bi... She's pretty cool (a cosplayer no less) and an amazing friend. She's defensive about discrimination though, like really defensive. I figure this might actually because of the hard time she gets being Bi...

Forgive me if this is out of line for this topic and I don't want to turn this into a whole debate on sex, but have you considered the thought that maybe the church's problem isn't so much with homosexuality but allowing the mind to focus on being perverted in general?  It's just that homosexuality is often persecuted more because nothing can come from it - it is fundamentally sex for the sake of sex.  

 

Through this lens, it is equally as bad to have heterosexual sex for the sake of sex.

 

None of this is to say that you are a bad person for thinking a certain way or having certain thoughts or believing you might be homosexual.  Jesus preached forgiveness after all, and sometimes we are weak and just give in to things we know are wrong or believe to be wrong on some level.  Just remember whatever you end up believing that it's never too late to forgive yourself and live the way you think is right.

 

Again, forgive me, I'm not trying to lecture you or anything just maybe giving you something to think about.  And I don't want to start a whole discussion on what's right and wrong, but I just want you to consider that just because you're having these thoughts that doesn't necessarily mean you have to abandon the churches stance or change what you think is moral.  And I don't want to get a whole bunch of responses to this like I hate gay people or something because I really don't hate anyone.

Yeah i'm still going to continue doing what i think is right, which is not to say i think my way is the only right way.It's just what i want to do. many people now try to avoid teaching about sexual ed even though a few hundred years sex was a natural thing to talk about, now it's looked down to even manage sex EX.)

This is in no way your fault. You are only being true to yourself, you have the right to be honest with yourself and to be happy in life. You are who you are - who God made you to be - and you should embrace that, no matter what other people say.

 

Love is one of God's greatest creations, and to express it in any way that feels natural - be that with a man or a woman - is one of the most beautiful things in the world. 

 

It might seem tough at times, but love is worth the struggle.

I think that even myself being a Christian I don't believe being any sexuality other then hetero is wrong or something, thats a dumb thing to think.

 

If God hated homosexuality or bi sexuality or any other non heterosexuality he wouldn't have made human beings that way.

 

Your mom should be accepting if your sexual preference and not constantly refer to you as homo, even if she doesn't totally agree with. You being her son she should atleast tolerate it.

 

You did nothing wrong at all, the only fault here really is on your mother, you shouldn't feel bad about it at all, your still a great person regardless of your sexuality, still a being who I believe God loves, regardless if the bible apparently condemns homosexuality at all. I don't believe that, I believe God loves people of all sexuality's and I'll believe that till the day I die.

 

If anything you should be proud that you had the guts to come clean on this, heck I'm still a closet brony, I still can't even tell my parents about MLP, yet you can come clean and tell them your Bi? Man that takes guts and you should be proud.

 

No need to feel bad for yourself at all.

Props for telling your mom in the first place. I'm bi and I'm afraid to tell anyone about it.

That was brave of you, my friend. Give it some time, and see how things turn out. Perhaps your mother will come to realize that being bi hasn't changed what you are.

I find that a lot of people are depressed and unhappy because they are not true to themselves, they try to live up to others standards and expectation to avoid being singled out which makes them feel unfulfilled. If you are bi sexual then you are bi sexual and there is nothing wrong with that, you are still the same person and your sexual preferences are only a part of who you are.

 

It is good to know that your mother reacted a bit better than your expected but not good that she obviously does not understand, being homosexual and bi sexual are two very different things.  It is often difficult for someone with such strong beliefs to come to terms with something like this so don't beat yourself up over it.
