How can I tell my family that I'm bisexual the right way?

lol well when i told my parents i was bi, i was kinda ambushed into it! my bf at the time was a secret from them bc it wasnt the kinda guy my parents wanted for me so i used to sneak out n junk.

long story short, my dad saw a hicky on my neck, asked who gave it to me and i lied for my bf and told my dad that my best friend gave it to me and that i was bi haha but asked my friend if i could use her name first (of course). but my parents took it very well.

anyways, if i had never gotten the hicky, id probly still be in the closet about it. im not guna lie tho it is nice to be open about it. if you have loving and understanding parents, id just sit em down and tell them.. if theyre mean and vindictive i wouldnt do it.

p.s they wont get pissed off if theyre the loving type!! they love you unconditionally and will accept you for who you are<3 i thought my parents would be mad too but i was shocked at how well they took it :)

I would question WHY as an adult you would want to tell them?

Seriously — based on your info, you’re a grown woman now, and that’s something that’s your personal business. It’s not something you would normally discuss over dinner!

It’s personal, and unless there’s some very specific reason you have a need to share — my opinion is that there’s no need to.

Besides, why would you want to add stress in your life where it wasn’t needed.
