Later you may want to tell someone else - someone you trust to be understanding and sympathetic. You might choose a friend or an adult. You will probably want to meet other bisexual,lesbian, or gay young people for friendship, support, and more intimate relationships.
Some bisexual youth are able to come out to their families.
You need to decide whether or not to tell your family, and to choose the right time. Lots of people, including parents, simply don't understand bisexuality and are difficult to come out to. In the beginning, be cautious about whom you tell. But it is crucial to be honest with yourself. Just as self-denial costs you, coming out pays off.
