just be your self, be open and honest with every one, including your self.
real true friends will accept you for who and what you are no matter what. the same thing goes for your family.
yes it will be hard for your family to accept at first, so they will have to slowly adjust to it.

best of luck to you,

What's in a name?

You are the same PERSON you were before you decided to come out (or even before you realized and admitted to yourself that you are bi).

Be solid in that.. Because unfortunately is likely that some people you know will not feel that way and think that somehow you are different now.

So, go slow.. Your Muslim mate may not understand.. So, you may not want to tell him or his mum for a bit, until you get your feet under you...

But however it goes, welcome here! Please always feel free to come here to talk, vent, scream, cry , laugh or just sit and read..

you mean that you want somebody that you can talk to that is like a parent to you ? and that you feel like shes a mother to you ?

I see it as a form of respect for the woman, if you are holding her in such regret..... and yes as part of coming out, it can be a confidence boost..... or a blow to your confidence if she doesn't take it well
