As you've probably gleaned from reading my journal so far, I'm bi. And I haven't had 'the talk' with my mother yet because I'm honestly afraid of what their reaction will be. I mean, I know they'll still love me, but they think it's a choice and that I'm just doing it to punish them. And I know that if I have a partner who's a woman, she won't be welcome in their house. They're both "as long as I don't see it", which would mean I wouldn't be able to show any affection.
