coming out as bi πŸ’•πŸ’œπŸ’™

I'm bi but I'm in a heterosexual relationship.

I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years and we plan on being together forever.

But we got together at a young age (17) and although I'd had a secret relationship with a girl for a while before I met him. I came out to my boyfriend 1 year ago but I never came out as bi sexual to my friends & family.

I'm feeling stuck. Like I'm being dishonest with who I am if I just never say anything about my sexiality. It feels like that because I'm in a heterosexual relationship already that everyone will be like "oh, but you're with him, so you're straight", but that's not true. It feels like people will say I'm only bi if I'm single & that if I'm with a man I'm straight and if I'm with a woman I'm gay.

I'm so scared to come out because I live in Australia and the majority of the people I know are extremely confused on the topic and just completely uneducated on the various sexualities out there! Australia is amazing but very 'stuck in the past' and behind in the times. It's 2018 for goodness sake, you would think people would be more understanding now. πŸ˜‚

Do I come out? if so, how? Or do I accept that I'm with my boyfriend and I should just stay in the closet? πŸ˜₯
