How do you tell your friends you are bi?

I recently discovered that I am bi-sexual.


And I would like to know from people who have admitted it, how their friends dealt with it. Like I am a girl, and would like to tell my closest girl friends, but I am afraid they will think I have a crush one them.


How do you deal with this?How do you tell your friends you are bi?
tell your parents first.





If you can't bring yourself to tell your parents, you have no business telling your friends.How do you tell your friends you are bi?
You yell at them, ';HEY FRIENDS, I'M BI';.





It really is not a big deal.
Do it on neutral ground- not in a bedroom or a house when the two of you are alone.





Make sure you have a way to get back home in case they got weird on you.





And just sit with them and tell them 'I think I feel this way'. Make it clear that you're not asking to experiment with them up front, that you care for them as a friend only, and because you trust them and value their judgement, you're telling them.





So long as they don't feel threatened, if they're the sort to be that way, you should be okay. I've had the same issue when my lesbian friends came out to me, since I'm straight. They were always afraid of offending me, and it's sort of like, no, there's a difference between telling me you're gay and telling me that you're gay for me. Make the distinction.
how about 'i'm bi'





another cliche, but real mates dont take the p***
I had exactly the same probelm!


I totally liked this guy andI was a complete pathetic mess for ages. But eventually I told him and a few of my firends and they were brilliant! They didn't over react or disown me or anything, and the guy was so supportive! Just tell the people you trust with your life and it will all work out. :D
u recently ';discovered'; u were bi? u mean u weren't ';born'; that way?
We were already talking about it and i said hey im Bi..They were like for real ewwww..Then we just laughed. They also got mad at me for not telling them...I just told them a year ago..Ive been by since i was the 8th grade ....Im 25 now...They'll be okay with it...If they are your true friends they'll stick around. My friends know i would never look at them in that way. We get dress in front of each other like Female friends do..You'll be fine hun..Dont wait as long as i did..
Well here is what I did about ten years ago with my friends. I asked them all to come out for lunch with me because I had something I wanted to talk to them all about, and they were like oh we can talk about what ever it in on the phone, and I was like no this has to be done in person and not at any of our homes, so we all meet for lunch and chatted for a bit, I was scared to tell them but once we started chatting things just fell into place, and I was like well the reason I wanted you all here was to tell you that I am bi sexual and I do not have any interested in any of you like that, we are all just friends and I just wanted you all to know this and I hope things between us wont change, and they were all like oh OK that's cool, and out of the six of us there three of us are bi sexual and have no feeling towards one another and the other three said they have thought about it but have not acted on it just yet, So hon just sit them all down and tell them like it is, if they are your true friends they will understand and stand by you no matter what. Best of luck and it will all work out for you.
Hey thats cool our avatars look alot alike!!! Anyway to answer your question I think the best way to approach it would be to start out saying ';I need to tell u something because your my friend %26amp; I dont want u to judge me or to ridicule me'; of course they may look at u strange but thats okay.. then say ''I'm bi %26amp; no I'm not telling u this because I have a crush on u, because I dont.. I just wanted u to know so that u would understand where I'm coming from %26amp; to support me because u are my friend';.





I wish u all the best of luck :-)
tell them if you trust in them


they are your friends


Right?
make sure they can keep a secret.


and tell one at a time.


i havent told my parents yet.


im 14


im bi.


my friends know, and they are way more suppotive.





make sure to tell them you ont like them like that.
same with me, i first talked to them about their views on the whole being bi/gay thing to see which of them are more accepting. I also only told a select few whom i know i can trust and got my back.As for the they might think you might have a crush on them thing you can clarify if you have to or tell them who you have a crush on, i told my best friend i was bi, and told her about the girl i was crushin'; on and she was cool with it and would joke around with me about it (not cruely just good fun), plus i could talk to her about my thoughts on the girl i liked without feeling critisized or embarassed. For those friends who are against it, well i wouldn't tell them untill you are sure you could trust them and be sure they don't drop you like a hot potato and never speak to you again,that's definetly bordering uncharted waters.
