someone said a lot of gay men are bi but they don’t admit it or act on it because of biphobia, even in the gay community. which i totally believe is true and it’s so unfortunate because as a bi woman my type in men is gay men 😞

my first ever boyfriend broke up with me because he wasn’t typically hypermasculine and was more flamboyant and my friend said “you know he’s gay right?” and i said “yeah but i still like him” and she told him i called him gay. in middle school i didn’t understand bisexuality or gender norms and how to talk about it without being super offensive 💔

i’m still deeply sad about it and i’ve been thinking a lot about apologizing to him all these years later now that i have the vocabulary and understanding to convey exactly what i meant and acknowledge how hurtful that must’ve been to him. he literally never talked to me again after that. which i obviously deserved, but he was the first of many gay and bi men i’ve been attracted to

it actually broke my heart. he was the first guy i ever connected with on that level. i loved talking to him and he was so cute and funny. it kills me to think that was his last impression of me. i’m happy for him that he didn’t tolerate my ignorance because i truly didn’t deserve him at that point. i maybe just wish i could’ve apologized. being an autistic kid surrounded by homophobic people in the south was terrible for me and ppl around me ☹️
