but...if it's going to cause more problems than it solves, don't feel obligated. i'm lucky to be in a place where there's good support...a dozen or so of us gather weekly for Bisexuality discussion group, and that fufils most of my need for honest communication.
in the end, this is up to you...i wish you all the best as you decide.

I think that often individuals who are bisexual are not really understood, especially among more conservative communities such as mine . . . I would dearly love to be open about my life to those that i care about and share with them what is going on in my life . . . It feels very closed in to have kept a whole part of myself hidden from everyone i care about my entire life . . . I just would like to be free to be honest with them for once. I think it is wonderful you have friends that you can be open with . . . i am truly envious
That is wonderful that you have a place where you feel accept to share discussions with each week . . perhaps i should look into that . . .
martinguerre, i thank you for your input.
peace,
