There’s nothing wrong with being bisexual and being one definitely doesn’t make you or your partner non-monogamous or commitment phobic. All you need to know is that whether your partner is open to you about it and that it is not going to affect your relationship.
Here’s how, what you can do:
Past Relations
American reality TV personality Snooki had casually explained, “I would consider myself bi. I’ve done stuff with girls before. But I would never be with a girl because I like … penis.”
His/her past relations are a major clue hinting towards sexual preferences. It is possible that your partner may have been attracted to the same-sex before and have had an affair. Yet, this does not change the fact that they are with you now and are probably more happy choosing this lifestyle.
Don’t Judge
Actress Drew Barrymore had come out in open in a 2003 interview with Contact Music, saying “Do I like women sexually? Yeah, I do. Totally. I have always considered myself bisexual.”
If your partner has opened up to you about their past encounters with the same-sex, it does not make them unsure about you. Don’t judge them or think wrongly about their choices. You must be comfortable discussing these things with them. Insecurity may creep in at such times especially with your partner’s friends but trust them enough to make their decisions.
Future Talks
If your partner has not confessed about them being bisexual, there’s a chance that they may also be a little edgy around discussions leading to your relationship’s future. It may seem scary to you but if they really love you, all they need is time and no pressure or panic from your side. It is a myth that bisexuals are unable to remain monogamous.
It’s Not A Disease
Even if you have a doubt that your partner may be a bisexual, don’t go around looking for symptoms as if it is a disease. Rather than stalking and hovering over them, have a conversation that will make them comfortable enough to open up to you. Also, do not fall for foolish things found on the internet about men having any kind of effeminate qualities just because they are bisexual.
