bad idea.

this is the person I've known more than anyone else and he took it worse than any other person so far. He was already coming up here to see me and help me "get a life". I decided I should tell him, and seeing as how apathetic my views on life was, his was gonna be too right? wrong.. He disbelieved me at first and now says he's gonna fix me. I'm so depressed and angry right now I don't even want to see him, I don't want to talk to my parents, I'm sure as hell not bringing this up with my roommate, and the only people who know me more than him and my family live too far...

I really hate humans right now

I'm very sorry. Some people take it well and some don't. Often it's surprising who does and who doesn't. Don't give up on all the human race, but your experience is a valid counterpoint to the good experiences some others have reported - people are very variable.

Your friend may, of course, just need time to digest the information and deal with it in his mind.

Maybe I'm missing something.. Is he your boyfriend? Is he just a friend? If he's just a friend why exactly does it matter? Friends come and go, and people are constantly changing to where people that were once compatible before no longer do.

It's unfortunate that you two don't see eye-to-eye on this matter, but I can't say I see it as something to become emotionally laden with and certainly don't see it as a reason to "hate humans."

As someone else says, friends come and go. If he cannot accept you for who you are and especially state he's going to "fix" you, than its best to move on. As we get older, true friends are the ones that stick around and the others get left behind.

Sometimes its just better to remember the good times and move forward. Sorry it turned out bad for you *hug*

I have to agree, his comment about wanting to "fix" you seems very wrong. I've found being bi is an extremely difficult place to be if you don't have any support. I told a few people about it recently, most simply don't understand, are weirded out and confused. The gay friends I told, suddenly looked at me in a new light, and seem to flirt with me, which wasn't what I wanted. I feel like the only people who are truly supportive of it are other people who are bi. People can be accepting of it, I told my best friend, and he now teases me about it which is fine, but he doesn't really understand, and it's tough.

Speaking from experience being Bi is having no one understand you.
