ORIGINAL: BigEyes But if I want to spend a lot of time with a certain woman, sincerely care for her and also find her sexually attractive, but have generally had boyfriends, does that make me bisexual? Am I pretending even if there is no one there but her and I? Do I have to pass a test? Who knows! Perhaps for once the kink world is more straightforward - many people are not so bothered about sexual orientation, whereas vanilla relationships seem to demand much stricter rules when it comes to bisexuality.. I'm generally confused - not about how I feel or my sexuality, but about the reactions of others. Any thoughts? :( Big Eyes x It has been 13 years that my husband and I have been together, almost 10 of those in marriage. Gradually over time we came to realise that I was bisexual, I mean I would be pointing women out to my man, not the other way around. Imagine our surprise when I found myself in love with our closest mutual friend, a lesbian. She was like a sister to my husband, and to me a dear friend. She was my husband only female, and she and I had so many things in common I felt she was my soulmate. (She is vanilla btw) After my husband and I did lots of talking and lots of torment and crying on my part, I finally wrote her a letter and told her how I felt about her, including in there that my husband was willing to let us (she and I) have time together. She has never spoken to me since. She won't come near me, won't even look at me. She will say hi to my husband but that's about it. Was I hurt? You betcha, I was crushed. Does it still hurt? Yes, she still has a small part of my heart but I've made peace with myself. When a time came in my life that I felt I was a switch after 10 years of being a sub, once again I had some friends pull away. Same thing when I finally came to my completion of realising that I am Dominant with masochist tendencies. Again, the friends fall away. I guess what I am saying here is this: No matter whether in the vanilla world or our's, no matter the orientation of the person, there are always going to be those people out there that are predjudice and some of them will be those you thought you knew best. You find out who really are your friends and those that aren't. Sorry if this sound just too cryptic, but I'm not a very trusting person anymore. On the upside, there are those jems of people out there that love us for who and what we are no matter what. Those are the ones you want to hold on to forever, for they are rare indeed. Good luck on your journey BigEyes, LeatherRose
