[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, and I'm disappointed this deteriorated so quickly. Can we set aside the gender identity issue for now?

New question: do you have children (assuming you do since you're on this site)? Have you discussed your bi identity with them? How "out" are you among friends?

Me: yes I have kids (young tweens) and no, I haven't talked with them about it yet. I do plan to, though I wonder how DH will feel about it. He's generally very open, but I know it will make him feel weird. Deep down (or not so much), I think he likes to pretend my previous life as a lesbian is a thing of the distant past). Yes, I am out to friends, but I literally know NO ONE else who is out and bi. Our community (NW DC) is very very cis and hetero, with a handful of queer families. [/quote]
May I ask something? I hope it doesn’t come out wrong. Assuming you’re in a monogamous relationship, why would you come out as bi to family and couple friends? Unless you were speaking of a specific prior relationship, which would be different. I totally understand wanting to be seen and known for your whole self, but couldn’t you keep that between yourself and your women friends?[/quote]

I’m not the person you quoted, but I’m another pp who spoke about wanting to be out more in my daily life. For me, it’s just about being more authentically who I am - people assume I am straight, I am not, so it would be nice to find opportunities to make that clearer to those in my life (and also set an example for my children that this is nothing to hide.

Are you in an open relationship?[/quote]
