I consider myself bisexual, and I'd be equally as willing to date a guy as I would a girl. That said, I've been taught for a long time, from my parents and events in my life, that one's family is one of the most important parts of a person's life, and that blood is generally thicker than water.
That said, it makes me kinda scared of the possibility of dating another dude, because my mom's convinced, through the events of a neighbor's life, that gay people are evil (with my cousin, who's a lesbian, presumably being the sole exception). For all I know, the person at the other end of the Red String of Fate might be another guy, and, when I brought up the possibility, my mom said that, while she'd tolerate it, it'd break her heart.
Presumably, the heartbreak would be from the lack of accessible grandkids, since she basically disowned my half-brother because he chose some lazy ***** over us (who ended up divorcing him eventually). Either that, or the fear that I've fallen into someone's trap, and that they'll ruin my life, or both.
If I were to marry another dude, would there be a way to be with him, and not break my mom's heart? I want to know if there's a third option somewhere.
