Hey, Im Ashley and I am 16 years old. Im Bi too. All my friends know about it. It was hard telling some of them, because I thought they would be weirded out of me and wouldn't want to be friends anymore. When it comes to friends, if they are truly your friend, they will accept you for who you are, if they don't, they aren't truly your friend. No one needs a friend who judges you, you just don't need them. Now family is alittle different. My mom and stepdad know about me, they accepted me. My mom guessed it, and asked me about it, and I told her about my girlfriend. I basically told her that I really had feelings for this girl and that I really love her. I also told her that I am serious about our relationship and she totally understood. She doesn't really agree with it, but she accepts me for me. She told me, it doesn't matter what you are, i don't care, I will always love you. I was really scared and stressed out about the whole thing of telling people, but in the end Im really glad I opened up and told, it made life alot easier. I really hope you found this helpful. I wish you luck, Hun. And remember everything is going to be ok smile
