Sometimes I wish that I could pick a side to be on and stay there. At 18 I came out as bisexual then I had a little phase where I thought I was a lesbian. Now I don't even know myself anymore. Everyday Im being criticize for being bisexual like I'm just confused and I don't know what I want and blah blah blah. I just wish that I can be free of judgement

Today I participated in an online trivia game hosted by the honour society I'm a member of at my college. Being the progressive organization that we are, the theme was PRIDE Jeopardy. Several members identify as LGBTQ-PA . Also, many, actually all of them, are younger than me. As these trivia questions came rolling out, and the younger generation of forward thinking leaders answered quickly and accurately, I realized that there is a lot about the community that I've been a member of since 1999, that I don't know. With each wrong answer I submitted, I could feel the eyes of my fellow students roll with disappointment. I feel like a sham, a fake, a wolf in sheep's clothing, all because I don't know the current colours of each flag, or the proper terminology, or pronoun, or any of the myriad of important issues that relate to this community. And it's not that it doesn't matter to me. It does! It's not that I don't care. I do! But I just feel so out of the loop, behind the times, and honestly, a bit ostracised. I don't feel like I belong anymore...I fought so hard to find a community where I felt safe to be myself, to love whomever my heart chose, heck to love myself for once. But now I feel like an outsider, both looking in and looking out of the perverbial closet with no sense of support or communion from either side. I just want to be loved and accepted for who I am, not rejected for what I'm not. Isn't that what we all want? A place to belong? A place to feel safe? A place where we don't have to pretend anymore? And yet, here I am, feeling rejected like a traitor by the only community I've ever been able to identify with because I'm certainly not straight, but suddenly I'm not gay enough either. Where do I go now? Standing in the closet doorway - unwelcomed and uninvited....

Hi, my name is Killer_Melody. I’m new to The Mighty and look forward to sharing my story.

I've been bisexual all of my life. Although I have predominantly had relationships with women.

I met and married my husband 6 years ago and, while we've struggled, we have been working things out.

Lately, I have completely lost interest in our intimate relationship and am coming to realize that I am much more happy in relationships with women.

The crux of the problem is that I promised him that, no matter what I wanted in my relationship preferences, I would always take care of him.

He is two years clean from a lifetime of crack addiction and lives on $800 a month. He truly would struggle to survive if I didn't help.

I understand that my mental health comes first, that I can't save him at my expense. I feel trapped between a rock and a hard place.

My CPTSD symptoms interfere by playing programming that says, "You will abandon him the way you were abandoned." "You are a bad person for backing out of your promise."

Logically, I know that this is not true, feelingwise, it's almost impossible to navigate. I would appreciate any feedback on other's struggles with the same experience. Thank you!
