[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that you should focus on how the friend is mistreating your DD rather than the bisexuality.  I had a relationship with a girl when I was 14 that was similar in some ways to this.  The girl was not abusive, but she was tough, daring, funny, and wild.  She also turned out to be a lesbian.  I remember liking the attention she gave me, and I didn't like when she hung out with other girls, etc.  But it was a phase, and I moved on (and she went to drug rehab).  I'm straight....I've never had a relationship with a woman.  But if you asked me during that 6-9 months of my life, I might have said I was bi because I was kind of infatuated with that girl.  Maybe it will turn out your DD is bi, maybe not.  But, as others have said, I would focus on the fact that her "friend" is mistreating her and she deserves better.  [/quote]
I agree. I had a "crush" on another girl at that age. I was a quiet, insecure, introvert. She was  a beautiful and popular alpha girl. I am not gay, or bisexual, and never have been. Kids at that age don't always know how to process big emotions, and it is easy to try to fit them into a box. What I was feeling was admiration, envy, self-doubt. I wanted to be like that girl, but in the moment, it felt romantic. So, focus on teaching your daughter what healthy and mutual relationships look like. Maybe she is bisexual, or maybe it is admiration masquerading as a crush. At her agae, all that matters is that she develop good self- esteem.
She could be bisexual, but I don't think that is the issue that really needs to be addressed right now.[/quote]
