S12 | E4 Do I Have to Explore My Bisexuality?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you've recently realised you're bisexual while in a long-term relationship, one question often comes up:
"Do I have to explore this?"
In this clip, coach and author Rob Brooks Cohen explains why there's no one-size-fits-all answer. For some people, exploration feels important. For others, simply understanding and accepting their sexuality is enough.
The real question isn't what everyone else does, it's what's right for you, your relationship and your values.
Watch the full conversation for a much deeper discussion on bisexuality, mixed-orientation relationships, authenticity and self-acceptance.
