Hello!

My father, grandfather and great-grandfather have all been snipers in the special forces of my country. I've personally been shooting for over ten years, and I've been training ''CQB'' (Krav Maga) for five years. I intend to follow in my family's footsteps... There's only one problem, I'm bisexual. And I'm afraid I might be in love. So, I have a question for you ''veterans'' out there... Should I stand up for what I am, or should I just let him go and wait for the right girl to come along instead? I truly wish to make my family proud, and continue the legacy... But, then again - I've never felt like this before.

What do you think I should do?

(Please excuse my terrible English, btw, I've been drinking quite alot to gain the courage to even make this thread...)

I think you should stand up for what you believe in, but either way, it's a decision that only you can make. Either way, I wish you the best of luck.

Hello there!

Allow me to begin by saying it seems to me like you've lead a very interesting life thus far..
Seeing as the current position you're in, and you may not realize this, but it is an incredibly good thing that you can (seemingly) comfortably admit to yourself that you are bisexual.*
If you are very interested in this boy, I personally feel that you should give love a chance here. It isn't often someone comes in to our lives who we consider risking our reputation for, and it looks like you're willing to do that.*
That being said, it does not mean your family and peers are going to necessarily look down on you for dating a guy, but of course that is always a huge worry.*
You haven't mentioned whether or not your family is aware of your sexuality; assuming they are, then you know what the out come of pursuing this man would be. Regardless, I still think you should.

And under the circumstance they are not yet aware, I think now is the right time for you to tell them.*
After all, you are in love.*

I wish you the best of luck, and even though it may seem like the right thing to do not to date this guy, YOUR heart is what needs to be taken in to consideration. If your family respects and loves you, they will support you. Even if it takes a long time.

I say definitely stand up for what you believe in. (: Good luck with whatever you choose.

U let him go and u'll always wonder what could have been. Sometimes when u reach a cliff in life u have to just jump cause u never know when u might land on a shooting star....I know it's cheesy but seriously

Be Yourself, Stand up for yourself. If they don't like it, their problem, not yours. Besides, as bisexual you have a chance to end up married to a girl just the same as you do with a guy, don't you?
