My life would be so much easier if I was actually bisexual. I’m a lesbian and my mom refuses to believe me and will tell me to stop lying to myself and just admit I’m bi, but I’m not and I feel so broken

it would be one thing if she thought you were straight but trying to negotiate you from lesbian to bi is crazy

Tbh I think that you should ask yourself if she would still have an issue if you were bi. By her reaction and through similar experience I personally think she’d still have an issue unfortunately. I don’t know your situation, though.

If I’m bi I can just choose to end up with a man according to my mother bc she thinks I’m choosing to only be with women

Yeah. I just wish I had attraction to men so I didn’t feel so fucking broken, most of the time I love being a lesbian but it is easier being bisexual (I identified as bi before accepting myself and it was significantly easier). Like I lost many friends when I came out as a lesbian instead of bi because I must have been secretly crushing and obsessed with my friends bc I’m a lesbian

I was out as bi for years and she was okay with it, the problem came when i “started limiting myself to only women bc you are guaranteeing a harder life for yourself”

I fear the issue (or from an outsider perspective it sounds like) your mom was hoping for you to end up with a guy. Unfortunately being bi wouldn’t solve that. What if you fell in love with a woman and your mom didn’t approve because she wants you to end up with a man? Honestly, it doesn’t sound any better than you being a lesbian. Regardless, she’s going to be upset.

I have gotten into so many fights with her about this topic you have no idea. I used to date men and women and it wasn’t a problem now that I only date women it is a problem
