You want to meet bisexuals online in a safe, friendly context. But finding legitimate connections is hard. Despite the best intentions of search engines, the web is lousy with content-light sites about bisexuality that are little more than vehicles for commercial activity.
Whether you're looking for a bisexual dating website because you're eager to meet someone new; or you're just curious to explore a side of yourself that you've let lay dormant for far too long, you probably still have questions about bisexuality. What is it? What causes it? How can people communicate their orientation and their needs to the larger world?
You've been searching around bi-curious dating sites in hopes that you will reel in the perfect match ā or at least an acceptable one. But concocting and delivering the right messages can be pretty intimidating, even if you're funny, linguistically nimble, and attractive to boot. Here are some pretty counterintuitive but time-tested principles for getting your message out, in spite of your hang ups and phobias about online dating websites:
Perhaps your significant other found you searching for bi-curious chat in Las Vegas; or maybe you've been mulling over whether to tell him or her about your sexual orientation for months.
In any case, you're scared and anxious about the conversation.
You know that, no matter how deftly you break the news, you could destroy your relationship and cause a lot of hurt and pain. At the same time, your self-enquiry has led to certain conclusions that you just can't deny. So you're at a crossroads.
Rather than just hooking up with someone through bi personals online on the sly ā or burying or suppressing your feelings ā consider having the tough conversation, sooner than later. It's not like your sexual orientation is going to change ā or that the strong desires that you've been repressing will go away in a few months or even a few decades.
To the uninitiated, flirting is mystical and mysterious process. Some people either have the gift or they don't. But there is definitely a science to the act. Whether you're just getting into online bi-curious dating sites, or you've mastered the "online" part, but you want to make those first and second dates more electrifying, here are 5 interesting insights into art/science of flirting.
If you're on the hunt for a bi-curious chat in San Francisco or Las Vegas, be prepared to be overwhelmed.

Of course, timeless principles of good, safe dating and communication still apply. Here are a few critical online dating chat room tips:
On the one hand, you're excited to meet someone wonderful through a San Francisco bisexual dating website. On the other hand, you're kind of terrified.
The prospect of setting up an effective online dating profile sounds as hard (if not harder) as setting up one of those multisyllabic, impossible to pronounce pieces of furniture from IKEA. While you can and should scan the Las Vegas bi-personals for insights into what works and what doesn't work, read up on the following do's and don'ts as well.
Before you can make the best use of a bisexual dating community like CitiBi, get a great online dating profile photograph.

The bisexual dating is getting more and more complicated, thanks to the proliferation of online dating sites and the cacophony of online social activity. Whether you're bi-curious in San Francisco or a Las Vegas bisexual ā here are 5 first date tips.
Letās face it. The San Francisco bisexual dating scene - while one of a kind, in many respects - can get pretty boring, once you get used to it. How many art openings does one guy (or gal) have to sit through? How many quick lunch dates or coffee breaks?
Here are 5 daring bisexual dating ideas. Research suggests that high adrenaline activities (like the ones weāre about to discuss) can stimulate strong hormonal responses and lead to increased feelings of attraction.
Bisexual dating is both easier and harder than it seems. It's easier in the sense that - since dating is a "numbers game" - your odds of success double when you double your playing field. At the same time, it's harder because bisexuality is so poorly understood, both by the general population and even by research scientists. Even though your dating options are expanded, in some sense, you are in a tiny minority that's misunderstood.
Whether you're gay, straight, bicurious or bisexual, you find the world of online dating confusing and exciting in equal measure. Here are 4 tips to help you have a more fun, safe experience online.
Tip #1: Spend time crafting a good profile -- and don't do it in a vacuum.
Pick a decent photo of yourself -- represent yourself honestly but in a good light. Otherwise, your dates might be "unpleasantly surprised" when they met you in person. Write a good profile description. Keep it positive and specific. Avoid delving too deep into your past failed relationships or your hatred of hipsters or whatever. Instead, focus on stuff about you that you think is wonderful and that you think a potential suitor will find fascinating and compelling.
For instance, maybe you're a great baker or an accomplished musician. Brag, but do it gently. Ask one or two friends to look over what you've created. Tailor your profile to attract the kind of person you're going after. For instance, if you're in the mood to date a guy or date a girl this summer, be specific and say so. If you don't care, make that clear. There is no "wrong way" to set up a profile, but you want to be clear, positive, and engaging.
Dating as a bisexual is something of a double-edge sword.Ā One the one hand, our options for love are vast. On the other hand, bisexuality remains poorly understood. Myths abound - even in the gay and lesbian communities - about what being in a bisexual relationship does and does not entail.
