Hi I'm imnothereshh.

I'm bi and proud. From I was literally six years old I have always found girls cute, pretty and as I've matured and gotten older I wanted relationships or to kiss them just as much as guys. It didn't matter to me whether you were a boy or a girl, if I liked you I liked and my young self saw nothing wrong with that. I didn't know about LGBT until a few years ago once I found out the definition of bisexual - sexually attracted to both men and women.

This is when I knew exactly who I was and my sexual preference. I've been told, "It's a faze." And "Everyone questions this at your age." And even "Is this because of some new 'cool' trend? It's not cool to be gay."

These comments made me angry but also anxious about telling anyone. I kept it hidden until a few months ago, I came out to my best friend and her reaction was priceless. Later that day I told my other best friend and finally a few days later my parents.

My friends fully accept me as myself and I love them for it. My parents said they wouldn't love me any less but are still trying to get used to the fact.

I introduced them to my first girlfriend about a month ago, being from a religious family this caused some strain but now they have accepted me as me.

I'm proud to be Bi. I'm proud to be me.

Just thought I'd contribute this :) Be proud in who you are.
