View Full Version : I Came To This Site Because...........

I initially came to this site because......
I was married to the best lover I’d ever had, the sex was fantastic and we experimented and shared fantasies and experiences – she taught me a lot of new tricks!!! Lol!!! And after the first “flush” of sexual adventure inside of a loving relationship we would share fantasies when having sex and one thing came back a lot and we both got turned on by it – a MMF threesome – two guys and a woman all having sex together – and you all know the permutations of that one!!
It got to a point where we agreed together to maybe, “give it a try” and some time and discussions we deiscounted anyone from my wife’s past even though one guy sounded a possibility – but no it had to some-one in our “now” not her “past”. In the end she said “you go and fix it up”. A visited a few sites on the tried a couple but found them unfriendly, difficult to use – far too much TEXT English until I came upon this one.
So “I Joined Because”: We were looking for a bi guy to join us in a romp.
Eventually I did find a really nice guy and he was “up for” a threesome – we exchanged e-mail addresses got to know one another better – shared our hoped for fantasies being fulfilled. We exchanged photos and eventually met up in a public place went to a park and chatted for hours. I was about to introduce him to my wife when my marriage suddenly took an odd direction so she never has. He turned to be a bit taller than I expected, and with “facial hair” (lol!!) hadn’t though about that!!!?? lol!! A really nice bloke.
And now for “What I found here”
A wonderful, loving, caring community and one to where my eldest daughter now visits (and puts up posts!!! lol!!!), friends, a wonderful “Forum” and “Fridge magnets” – what more can one ever ask for – a perfect site with great folks running it and being members of it!!
With love and thanks to you all for making this such a great "Community" and a site to always return to.

ok well i thought someone should reply to this, hope alot more of you do!!!
i came to this site cos my dad introduced me to it, i am not bisexual, but i need to understand it cos the most important male figure in my life is.
and i admit i didnt know what to expect.
i actually joined to support my dad and show him the love that he needs. what i found this site to be is as rupe put it a community. i apprieciate that you all help each other, share personal issues and know you will get a reply and most importantly know you will get support from someone who understands you and doesnt judge.
so i came here to understand and i so love what this site represents: the abilty to be yourself, the sense of community and the sense of friendship.

[...] i came to this site cos my dad introduced me to it, i am not bisexual, but i need to understand it cos the most important male figure in my life is. [...]
Yes, Proud Daughter. Some people here have come to the site because they are bisexuals and want to feel the sense of community this site has. Some others are not bisexuals, but come here to try to understand bisexuality as their spouses are bisexuals. Some even come here because they have some friends or relatives that are bisexuals.
The people's age range is from 18 (the minimum age required to be here) till their sixties I think (but there is no upper limit for that, just the limitations of the software). If you check my profile, it says 99, but as I said it's due to the inability of the sofware to deal with my real age: 2,600 years old. I'm the mummy, Imhotep, looking for my Ankh-Sun-Amun... :tong:
This community is formed by people from different countries and different backgrounds and I think I have found and made some very good friends in the short time I've been here.
You are right. It's wonderful when you put a post expressing your problems and there is always somebody that is going to be there for you to answer and advise. Of course, we all have different backgrounds and experiences, but I think that is what it makes it richer, broader and more universal.
Even if you have some problems that you think you are alone in this world suffering, you can see here that probably there not one, but a group of people that has gone through or is going through similar circumstances.
All the best,
ray :male:

... I was loking for a place to help me think straight... well not striaght actually... unstraight. :tong:
I've been out to at least a few people since I was 21 (I'm now 24) but given the relative invisibility to other bisexuals I haven't really had much of an opportunity to interact with others who have been through the same issues. I have 1 friend who is also bi but we're both at a relatively similar level of confusion. I guess I came here with the hope of finding people who might offer a bit of guidance. Not even directly to me but just by being exposed to other peoples thoughts. To help me work out my set of ideas.

Well, most people know now why I came here...I needed alot of help dealing with finding out about my husband. Many yrs. together and suddenly he's bisexual and I had no clue. How do you cope with that?? Luckily he was a member of this wonderful "community" and thought maybe I should talk to some people on here. Next thing you know I joined myself. I have had alot of caring people help me through a very difficult time. Now that I have come to understand that nothing really changed about my husband, he's still "Flounder"...we are very much closer and better friends. Now I can't imagine not coming here to chat. Thank you all! :)

I initially came to the site because I was feeling awkward, confused, different and I had no one I could talk to.
Since coming here I have met a lot of diverse people. Very sweet, kind and understanding people who were more then willing to share what they knew and help when needed. Lots of ears to bend and shoulders to cry on. Lots of laughs and good times as well as differences of opinions. I Learned I wasn't alone. And I thank everyone for being so supportive and accepting of one another.
I hope that things work out for you Rupert. I and feel so badly that it took this turn after the excitment you were feeling about meeting your new friend. I'm very happy that your daughter is behind you, or standing beside you, rather. She seems just as proud of you as you have always spoken of her. Best of luck to you my friend.

I came here because I randomly stumbled upon it and hoped to meet new people. I've kind of given up on finding people near me over the net, for me it easier to just go outside and hope for the best, but it's great to meet people from other cultures and persepectived here. I love making new friends

I came to this site so that I could learn more about my bisexual husband of 25 years and to understand bisexuality a little better. What I found was a wonderful community of incredible people who opened their hearts and their lives to me. By doing so they not only helped me understand my husband a lot better, they helped me to understand myself a lot better as well.
I can't say enough about how i feel about this site. I have found love and support and quite few laughs along the way. It is so nice to know that there is a safe, supportive place for people who are in need and it is extra rewarding when they find even more as a result.
Hugs,

i was board with my “semi-closet” bisexuality, confused about my feelings for both men and women and needed to meet and chat with others in the same place. The realisation that there is a whole group of people just likes me was an overwhelming experience. The people I have meet and chatted too have given me the confidence to be more open with my “normal” friends – mind you they weren’t very surprised when I told them – and they now they have many a happy evening taking the piss out of me. Sometimes that hurts but I’m a real happy camper now. The changes in my approach to my sexuality have been both liberating and very enjoyable. Thanks to everyone who has helped me in this quest and to all the real people i have meet here xXx

.......I'm a male bisexual and married and wanted to meet with people in the same position - to find out how they "coped" in a world where "bi-sexuality" is even worse than being "gay" for a lot of people. To see how many people chose to be "out" amongst family and friends. And, maybe, find someone to meet up with.

The reason I came to this site was to help me figure out my feelings. I have acted on my feels when younger and enjoyed them. I went to college and moved on with my life and the feelings started to come back. I knew i wasn't gay beacuse i love my wife and love women. But I don't see anything wrong with being with a guy also.
I joined to talk to people and to figure out my feelings and to understand myself. Which i have.
I stayed beause of the people I met and the fun of the website with people who are like me.

Because I am very closeted and am hoping to meet someone to help me take a couple steps towards getting out of the closet. I am hoping to make some cool friends from the Indy area.
I found this by random but quickly discovered how "friendly" of a place it is and decided to become a member and stay.

i came to this site because... well.. i am not completly clear in my emotions, nor in exactly what i want from life. i decided to "get things from the horses mouth" or so to speak. what better way to learn and figure out exactly what kinds of things i want, or would like in the future than to come here and "see" for myself. so far i have found that this site is extreamly helpfull, and friendly. i am chatting with a few people and i am well on my way to overall accomplishing my curiousity.
thanks to all, and hope you have a nice day

I have to hand it to Drew, and those he may have partnered with, in order to create this website--this is a very good place for those of us who are trying to make sense of our "bisexual nature."
I have always lived my life around water and boats, yes even here in the middle of corn and auto production country, we have many places to float a boat.
With that in mind: I use a nautical metaphor to describe this place---in the great turbulent world of the Internet--this site is my favorite port-of-call.
In sailing--a skipper always likes to have a "hurricane hole" in mind along his or her journey in order to have a safe anchorage in case of foul weather.
This place is my hurricane hole and my favorite gunk-hole. (that's not naughty, another nautical term.)
It is a place to find people of like mind, where you can find information about this much misunderstood topic, and to make friends or more.
I tried the chat rooms on AOL and at other sites and they did not provide the sort of scene I sought--a place to have a substantive conversation (at times) about this subject and not feel that all anyone out there was seeking was cyber, phone, webcam or real sex right off the bat.
Thank the lucky stars for this site.
The postings that Rupert and members of his family have put up so openly (they are much braver than I) here is a case-in-point.
Rupert felt comfortable enough to put out to the world some very intimate details of his life and I have to hand it to him for that and once again to Drew for creating this place---
I think this site, for those who wish to really search out this part of themselves, serves as a very important element in of our respective "voyages of discovery."
Like Kerry, I have had these feelings for many years--but didn't know what to do with them with the exception of "stuffing them down in the cargo hold."
I don't know where I am going on this voyage--but this site will help me find the answers I seek-- of that, I am most certain.

I had been searching for a bisexual site for a while and eventually found this one. I was looking for a place where I could be around other bisexual men and women to talk freely about pretty much anything. My long time gf is totally accepting of my bi side and so I have that exceptional freedom. I'm so fortunate to have her in my life. We also have a circle of male and female friends, many of them bi, and i'm so fortunate to have them in my life as well. If only everyone else was so accepting. We sometimes go to a swing club and it always amazes me how much homophobia there is among the guys. I can't even be free to be me at a swing club - go figure. It seems this is pretty common as I've read the feature article and many threads on that subject on this site and others. There are bisexual groups in my area (Toronto) but they seem geared towards providing support and information. I don't need support and I'm not an activist. Wouldn't it be great to be part of a bisexual social club? To organize dances, travel together, day trips, swimming, bowling, pool, nude beaches, etc. I sense that our bi population is growing as many more men are allowing themselves to accept and enjoy their bi side (as I finally did). I think eventually this will be more acceptable in the general population, just as the gay side of it has become (at least in this area).
Thanks to Drew, this site is giving me a place to chat with others and entertaining forums to read, and the bonus' are the contacts. Thanks for a great site Drew. This site's address is at the top of my "Favorites" list.

:flag2: :male: I came to the site because I'm a horny old bisexual man in a monogamous marriage (because of health considerations rather than moral). though my wife is both aware of my bisexualy and generally supportive, we feel it just isn't safe for me to be out sucking other guys. This is fine on the phylisophical plane but leaves me frustrated on the sexual level. Being almost 77 might have reduced the capability, but it seems to have increased the desire!

So many parallels with my own experience of finding this site.. I too was so isolated in my being 'neither one thing or the other', and the experience of putting bisexual into google one night (just for the hell of it :cool:) and winding up here was like my own inner Neil Armstrong moment...... one small click of the mouse, one giant leap towards growing into who i am.. :bigrin:
I love my friends on here, you know who you are :rolleyes: and even though i dont chat so often now, you have made such a difference and i care very deeply about all of you

i stumbled across this site, too, just like many others. it happened while looking for an alternative to the same old boring ass, intolerant swingers sites, [ i belong to 3 groups, am gonna narrow it to 1, am tired of being the "token" or the zoo exhibit ] without going thru AFF, match.com,singleme.com etc.
i was looking for like minded, tolerant people, who live the life and walk the walk..understand our needs, wants, and mindsets are very, very, varied, and are open enough to accept that..the support we give each other is absolutely overwhelming and so, so positive.
try getting what we have here in this community from the likes of all those other places.. it aint gonna happen.
i was going to say, it was a fungoid relationship, we grew on each other, but that didnt seem appropriate. :eek:

I came to this site because I am a gender and human rights activist, looking for a place to hang my hat with people who aren't judgmental, and who are, to form a vague umbrella, open minded, and if not open minded, generally, with very few exceptions, respectful. I came here to read the opinions of others, and to voice a few of my own. It has become a refreshing pause in my hectic, retail by day, student by evening, writer by night world, to come here when I'm burned out or frustrated, and be reminded that there are others who think somewhat like me. It has also been refreshing, when it happens, to find people who are not completely shut out to the concepts of perpetuating equality: specifically emotional, intellectual, and physical equality for individuals both because of, and regardless of physical or intellectual gender.
Also, as many here know, I am not at this time, in a position where I can be who I am, inside and out, 24/7, so this is a place to be more myself than I could be elsewhere (say, with the emotionally distant family or at work.)

I came to this site because of a very special lady in my life. While I admitted being bi long before I came here, the people that I have met on here and chatted with have helped me "expand" my horizons even more. It was a very pleasant surprise to find real.....and I stress real......caring, loving people in chat. People who I am proud to call friends. The hearfelt caring and, dare I say it(???), love that I have experienced while chatting...directed to me and to others in the room make me happy and proud to be part of this little corner of the web.
As the kinda famous line from Forrest Gump goes....."Life is like a box of chocolates....". Everytime I sign into the room I never know what kind of "chat" there is going to be....sometimes the topics are serious and other times it's wild and whacky...either way it's enjoyable.
If I had my life to do over again there are a few changes that I would make. One of which would be to have found this site a lot sooner.

I was looking for a site for the bicurious, but not sure if that would ever lead to anything. Also, after doing a search, this site seems to be more concerned with the topic than just a place to share addresses and sex stories (not that there's anything wrong with that!). I was just looking for something more than that. From what I've read so far, this site has a great mix!
Thanks for being here.

I was looking for content to understand those darned gay feelings that kept popping up and haunting me, but still giving me much joy (in my fantasies). So I was looking to uncover this gay ghost, and see where it comes from. But bisexual, I had never really given that a thought. I mean, it was kind of like realizing a new category i could put myself in.
And I keep coming here because it's good reminding myself that there are other's that are just as complicated as me, and many that are even more complicated. Ahhhh...

the one person I could talk to about anything in the world, my best friend, was also the reason I needed this site! She was my first Bi experience a few weeks ago, and of course I feel a tiny bit odd going to her and telling her that I can't think about anything else and even when I am with my BF, I think of her. So I found this website and hope that I have found a place where I can talk about my experiences and my feelings regarding her.
Thanks

I originally became aware of my bisexuality while talking in Adult Teleconference rooms on Bulletin Board systems before the internet was a public space. I eventually started chatting on some of the gay ones that were visited by people I met elsewhere.
But none of these places had too many people that understood me. Actually most of them perceived me as either confused or gay. I eventually got burned out of the whole idea and stopped chatting online.
I actually once considered making a place like this. I found this place by accident two weeks ago and it has everything I ever had dreamed of for an online community for people like myself.

Curious to see how many others out there were in my situation, I too did a search....(I think it was Yahoo, though not google) and stumbled upon this site. I think I may have actually been looking for porn that day,:yikes2: but what I found was soooo much better. Here I have found the best chats, opinions, and people you could ask for!! You can be who you are, learn, grow and explore. Right before I found this place, I did try to chat on Yahoo, but the porn bot infestation is overwelming! Ditto for aol and msn. I gave up because I can find solace here. Big thanks to Drew and everyone else who makes this place what it is!!

.... because I hope to find a relationship. I live in a small, rural town and have had no luck finding some here. I'm sure there are other Bi Women around, but so far we seem to be in deep cover.
I've joined a few other sites and I'm trying to be patient ~ but I'm Scorpio and the baby of the family ~ you do the math. :tongue:
This is only my second day here and I have to say that the chat room was very friendly, I was made to feel welcome even though I was in a cranky mood.
While I may not find a GF here either, I think I will make some friends and that's important too.
Stay Amuzed!

.....because I clicked on the personals link at ThreePillows.com, which I found through a porn ratings site I found while Googling for bisexual porn. I am a straight woman who LOVES watching MM and MMF sex (only in porn so far, in person watching and participating is still a dream) (ahhh, mmmm, :drool: ) (oops). I feel like a kid in a candy store, with all the sexy posts to read in this forum. I am also already learning so much. I've frequently wondered how to meet bi men, but it never occurred to me that it is even harder for bisexual people to find friends/lovers/sex partners than it is for gays and lesbians, and that the societal pressure on bisexual people to stay in the closet is even more oppressive than the pressure for gays and lesbians to stay there. I experience intolerance and prejudice because I am very overweight. I think my experiences make me more empathetic to others who are not what the majority of people seem to think is normal or acceptable. I was raised in an atmosphere where sexuality was never discussed, so naive I didn't even know what gay or lesbian was until I went to college in Manhattan, but I've never felt that anyone whose sexual preference differs from mine are not "normal," whatever the hell that's supposed to be. I hope I will make friends here on the site, and continue to learn more that I can share that might be helpful to other people in my life, whether they are bisexual and need support or "straight" and need enlightenment.

... because I was looking for somewhere to meet new people and find out about the feelings i was having. I am young, possibly the youngest on the site, but everyone has welcomed me with open arms. I haven't been treated like a child, and I have made some excellent friends among other 'relationships' too.
If it wasnt for this site I wouldnt have had the guts to open up to my friends. This IS a real community, and people REALLY care.
Thanks to everyone who has made me feel welcome :)

Well, honestly i came here just for curiosity, i am straight and i only feel emotional feelings for woman, but sometimes i get horny thinking about having some bi-sexual kind of sex. I dont know, who doesnt have kinky fantasies when excited? I haven't had a bi-experience yet, i have just masturbated with my friend and webcam with other guys, so i am looking to fullfil this fantasy. I am 20, young and i wanna experience new and exciting stuff. I am very open minded and i enjoy talking to people whos the same.

I stumbled across this site while browsing for information on bisexual organizations and chats. I showed my significant other the site and she likes the attitude and information available. With both of us being bi, it is sometimes hard to find people of a similar view point on sexuality. So i do a lot of chating and Pam does a bit of reading and both of us have a new place that is nicely put together where others share many of our views.
Thanks Drew and please keep up the good work

......... well, I'm a married woman, and have had feelings I have always been afraid to admit to myself. My hubby has been very supportive, and he was the one that actually found this site for me,(bless his heart). On occasion, he actually sits with me while I chat. Knowing my husband to be the straight arrow he is, I also think this site is helping him deal with some of his homiphobe tendencies.
I was never one that wanted to be defined as gay. I love men, and now, at least, willing to admit to myself, that I'm attracted to women. My eyes have opened to the possibility that I can have my cake and eat it too, so to speak, lol.
I have met many fabulous people here. You all have become another addiction in my life! If I'm on the computer, I have to visit, even if it's just to say hi. The understanding you see here is unfathomable to most, but craved by so many in society. I'm just glad I am here, and you all are here.
Well said my word, PEACE OUT!

I came here because it is nice to find like minded people conversing about life. That said I do enjoy chatting if there is actually dialog taking place. Often in the chat that is rare. Many will say you need to contribute. That is fine, until you do try contributing and do not get a reply back.
Some will say a person should go with the conversational flow. Alright, fair enough I suppose. Most often conversation is about sex. Yes it is a site about sexual orientation and most of us are adults here. That is easily understood. But, obviously understanding ends there.
On the other end of the wires lies another human being. He is bisexual, she is too. That is not all that defines them as people. Yes, sex can be great and fun. It is not all there is to life, though. Before anyone says I'm a monk living on a mountain, let clarity ring out. I live between two mountains and am not afflicted by any religion or affilited with anyone's politics.
My apologies for being someone who enjoys thinking for themselves. Further, let me apologize for being human and capable of being, bisexual, a writer, a husband, an uncle and so on. That is not drama, it is seeking to engage in substantial conversation with highly respected like minded others, about anything and everything.
Conversation often leads to friendships, possibly more. It is the simple act of communication which builds the bridges crossing voids between you and I. The main rason then, I come here is hope. Each dawn it comes to us eternally. We can become a family of humans and share love, or we can turn away from the new guy, ideas, shades of gray, foods and let fear create hate.
Okay, I've written out what needed said. Thank you for the honor of reading. Excuse me, now.

I subscribe to the e-mail list of the Bisexual Resource Center.
(I've recently re-subscribed after having taken a break from their e-mail list.)
A member of the Bisexual Resource Center Mailing List
had posted a link to a message on Bisexual.com.
The forum thread that had been linked to was:
"My convo with a gay leader tonight -- for your thoughts/reactions" by JohhnyV.
I followed the link and I was impressed by the quality of
both the original post and several of the replies.
After having explored the Bisexual.com forum a bit
more, I decided to join you folks.
Some bi forums and mailing lists focus primarily on
how bi people are being discriminated against while
other sites are all about sex.
Two very important subjects, but I prefer a little
more variety.
It seems to me that the Bisexual.com Forum offers
just that, variety.
So, now it's time to try and get get some sleep. ;)
Take care,
Dani

I'm a college student. Out as bi at school, but not at home... and I'll mostly likely remain closetted at home for quite a while to come.
Having only newly discovered/figured out this part of me, I had been looking for some kind of outlet to learn more and be able to talk with more ppl like me. I did not (and do want) want to be part of a site that only focused only personals. I'm already happily monogamous.
This site gave me what I was looking for: I place where I can openly talk about my sexuality, and figure out more of what it means to be "me".
To all of you, for helping to make this place what it is: thank you.

I came here because for the second time in my life, I was at the end of my sexual orientation rope; only this time, I knew what the next step would be.
I was all over the web, searching for something without knowing how to find it or even what it would be exactly.
What did I find???
I clicked on a link that brought me here- to the place I needed to find.
A place where I'm not propositioned every 5 minutes to meet someone to hook-up or to "cam".
A place where I can ask honest questions to good people and get non-judgemental anwers and opinions.
A place with a built-in, ready-to-go support group of people who actually know what the hell I went through and really care about others!
A place where even I can try to help others.
I found friends.

Okay, I'll share...
I came to this site to find more of myself. Bisexuality is always something that has been in my head, at least since my mid teens, but I never explored it. The previous year, I had suggested 3somes and such with my husband, but really wasn't that interested. It was my way to get him to agree to let me be with a woman. I wasn't as interested sexually as I was emotionally, but it seemed every night I would dream of this faceless woman, whom I loved and desired deeply. I was confused and frustrated at the same time. My marriage had been rapidly declining and I decided to seek the truth about myself, and here I found it. I'm so glad I did. I didn't come here seeking to hook up with anyone, just hoping to find some insight about myself. The added bonus of friends, a family, and lo and behold, a face for my faceless woman!
I feel myself now, I'm warmed by the thought of the friends I've met on this site and the love I've gained from it. Thank you Drew for all of it.
luv and kisses,

Well being a bisexual guy has never been 'cool' in our soceity.
I was most active in this lifestyle in my early to mid twenties when I had to sneak guys in and out of my dorm/apartment late at night.
I never realized that there were so many others like myself out there until I found this site. :)

...... I wanted to understand my feelings without doing it in a way that would hurt those around me or make me feel ashamed of myself.
I found a whole host of intelligent, well spoken and kind people.
I was getting so frustrated trying to sort myself out by talking to people who were just horny and after sex, rather than discussing feelings in an open and unpressurized way.
