Is it normal to think bisexuality isn't real

I see a lot of gay acceptance from my highschool and less on being bi. I became an outcast ever since I told my best friend I was bi, because he kept asking me if I liked guys.

My friends think its a phase or tease me for it but are so accepting and loving to our gay friends.
Even one of the school bullies on my basket-ball team bullied me in a sexual way but he leaves the gay dude alone on our team.

Teachers think its fake too, I asked if she could talk about bisexual relationships, after she explained straight and gay ones. And everyone just laughed at me while she ignored me.

Now I finished highschool, but when I go on a date with a gay guy some of them judge me, like I'm not even taking the date seriously because of my sexuality.

Why do people care so much about it?! Isn't it enough that I just like them?

    It sounds like you are seeking assurance for your sexuality when it just isn't necessary. Why even discuss it with those who aren't involved in that part of your life?
    You are who you are, but if you are having trouble accepting it, how can you expect others to do so?

    • Yeah you may be right. I guess I'll try and not give a damn how people see me.
      Can't please them all right?

      Thanks for your words.

    I was told the same things when I was in high school, and I was bullied for being a "dyke" by girls on my sports teams. I just ignored them and went on with my life.

    I can't speak on what its like to date a gay guy, obviously, but I get some of the same reaction when I'm on dates with girls who identify as strictly lesbian.

    • Yeah I've gotten over high school now too.

      The reaction on dates is annoying, and I'd expect them to be more understanding of me being bi, because of their history of gay hate against them.

      I'm surprise that even some lesbians give you that reaction. But even more when I had one date telling me I might be confused because I can't like two very different things.

    I think it is. It can just be a lot more complicated. There's 2 kinds of attraction: sexual and emotional. For example: you can be sexually attracted to females but more emotionally attracted to males.

    • Whoa you read me with that example. I think I' am more emotionally attracted to males, I have a better understanding of things when I'm around them.

    I think that people have the assumption that being with a bisexual person makes them more inclined to cheat because they "need" the other sex as well.

    • Yeah they probably think that. And I've heard the theory that they think we're just horny and not picky.

      You pretend to be smart on the internet all day because you are a fat asshole with no friends.

      • I know right. If I'm not real I must be a really smart spam bot. Ha
