I don't think about them as much now. I stay educated and up to date on the news, I do research and vote for people who make a difference, and I moved to a place where there are people like me. I spend time with my SO and feel happy about it. The people that hate usually get to know me before they know I'm bi. Once they see that I'm a normal person who just so happens to have a boyfriend, they tend to chill out.
Glad you found an accepting community, do you mind if I ask for some advice?
I have a somewhat similar approach. Although I put purple laces on my work boots. Usually people learn I'm poly shortly before I'm bi though. While they usually don't ask much about me being bi they tend to ask about the poly side.
Makes sense tbh. I'm bi but I'm very monogamous. Never understood how people can be poly. Not to say its a bad thing
No worries, I feel the same about monogamy. I've been poly longer than I've been married. And I've been married for a bit more than 10 years now.
