When Girls Like Girls

[elizaisawesome…]

So one of my good friends and I have were talking on the phone and texting, for a bit yesterday. I decided to come out to him as bi because I spent a lot of time with him after class and trust him a lot.

This is our exact conversation, texting, some time after our phone conversation:

Me: By the way, can I trust you with something? You're a good friend. Please keep this?
Me: I'm pretty sure I'm bisexual....or at least VERY bicurious....I've had crushes on both girls AND guys...
Him: Ok
Me: I want you to accept me. I think you're a great friend, honestly. I don't want this to be awkward. I trust you a lot.
Him: How should I accept you?
Me: I don't know. Just respect our friendship and be there for me, just like I always am for you.

No reply after this, so I think he's having a hard time with this. What can I do?

The best thing to do is give him some time to come to terms with your news. It was probably a big deal and he didnt know what to say when you told him.

what exactly do you expect him to do? I mean nothing should really change with your friendship, youre still the same person you were before you told him so things should be as they were.
