Last week one of my best friends confided to me that she was bisexual and that she had sex with a girl and was now dating the same girl. I do not know how to act around her anymore. I mean I have no problem with it, but it's just kinda weird to hear her talking about it. I want to talk to her without offending her, what should I say?

     She's still the same person, the only difference is that now you know something about her that you didn't know before. There's no reason to feel or act any different around her. This should be something that will make you even better friends because she confided in you, which means she trusts you.

     I am bisexual myself and I just broke the news to my friends not too long ago. It's okay to be uncomfortable around her because you're not use to her talking about girls or what not. Just always remember she's still the same friend she was before you found out about her "SECRET."

     Hmmmm. That's a toughie. I went through the same thing with one of my friends. Like you said, it didn't really bother me but I didn't know what to say, so instead of worrying about it I just tried to act natural. I know that is harder than it sounds, but believe me, after a while I just kind of forgot about it.

     Tell her what you think. I know that it was hard for me to admit to myself that I liked females. It still is. That's why I have not told anyone. Right now I'm still trying to figure out what I am, and I know that when I tell someone, I will listen to what their opinions are about my sexuality and me and I'll let them make the decision about how to react.

     I really think that you should just go with the flow. I know that if I was bisexual and I told my friend I would really be hurt if she acted differently towards me. I say carry on like y'all were!
