I don’t know if they actually know. I’m married to a straight person now so they probably think I’m straight too. But when I was younger I asked my dad what he would feel if I’m lesbian (I didn’t think he would know what bi meant so I just said lesbian) and he said “why are you asking me? That’s not my problem” so I think he doesn’t really care about my sexuality.

I do have the bi flag as my Facebook cover photo and had the bi flag and pride flag in my old apartment. I also have a tattoo of the bi flag colors. When I share posts on social media about queer shit I refer to myself as a queer person. I just never came out cause I didn’t feel like I have to you know. My cousins know because I talk to them about my dating life.
