There are some situations in life we land into inadvertently.

No matter how much do we try to avoid them, they grip us like a maniac and we start to look for a way out desperately.

For straight women, being in a relationship with a bisexual guy can be one such tricky situation.

You meet a cute guy in at a party and start talking and really hitting it off! You start going on dates and you’re having a good time, but in the midst of pillow talk, he tells you that he’s bisexual! And the hell breaks loose for you!

Well, on the literal terms, if you search for a meaning for a BISEXUAL in an urban dictionary, it would say, “Bisexual is a person who has the ability to reach down someone’s pants and be satisfied with whatever is there!” Yes, that is!

In a more meaningful way, a bisexual person is the one who can get sexually attracted to both men and women with equal intensity.

Therefore, if you have gotten into a relationship with a bi-guy, knowingly or unknowingly chances are, your beau may be willing to hookup with a cute guy at some party, you have to deal with this tricky situation, if you are already deep into the relationship and do not want to lose him.

Here’s how you act when you have identified that you are in a relationship with bisexual guy!

1. Don’t Hold Any Preconceived Notions

First of all, understand that after being in a relationship with a bisexual and identifying as one, make sure you throw all preconceived notions of what it means to be bisexual, out of the window. Your guy might define it differently than you, and you don’t want your own biases to hinder what he’s trying to tell you. In addition, his level and depth of attraction to both sexes could differ greatly, so it’s important not to make any assumptions about it! Being bisexual, says nothing about a person’s promiscuity. Unfortunately, our culture sometimes associates bisexuality with being heavily sexual or unable to be monogamous, which is of course not the case. It’s a common misconception, and it’s an important one to think about!

2. Be Respectful And Open To Discuss Things

With all the awkwardness in place, you may feel a little weird about talking to him about his preferences, after all it remains a very personal thing. And on top of it, you wouldn’t want to hurt his feelings. Yet, talking openly would help to unknot a lot of complications. Be ready to talk, be friends with him. Take it slow and keep a conversation to the levels, more comfortable to him. Before you talk, make sure you are both aware that you are having a serious conversation about sexual orientation and your relationship status, and make sure that it’s at an appropriate time. Trying to discuss your boyfriend’s bisexuality while intoxicated at a loud party won’t exactly be a rocking idea. Make sure you are both ready and present to talk about sexuality, comfort and boundaries.

3. Do Not Ask Questions He Is Relutant To Answer

You know that your levels of forthrightness are just appropriate for you, but for him they might not be. Do not ask questions that make him uncomfortable. Like asking him directly, “are you sure you are a bisexual?”. This type of interrogative questioning is a strict no no, if you love your guy and want to be with him. It could also come across as insulting and might put him off the conversation altogether. Sexual orientation is already a sensitive subject, and questioning a part of your boyfriend’s identity can feel really come across as huge damper!

4. Keep The Comunication And Compassion Channel Open

The biggest rule of dating someone who is bisexual is also just a general rule of relationships: keep a clear and honest line of communication with reasonable doses of compassion mixed with love. If you choose to date someone that is bisexual, and are willing to take the relationship forward without anyone of you losing the interest, make your partner feel loved and cared for, irrespective of his orientation and his “other activities” that he might be indulging into, off an on.

5. Be Ready For The Questions People Ask YOU

You would have to go through strange experiences like people asking you questions about your orientation and your partner’s orientation, if it is known to all. When your friends would notice your boyfriend talking with other guys, they would give you funny gestures too. It may get tiring hearing your friends constantly ask about your relationship, but don’t let it get to you. The only thing that matters is if you and your boyfriend are in a happy and healthy relationship! And that’s it!

6. Respect His Me Time

Whenever he asks for the little “me time”, which of course you would understand, why; you would have to give up on your insecurities. One challenge of dating a bisexual guy versus a heterosexual guy is being cognizant of whom he’s gone out with. Being a girl yourself, you may feel jealous and insecure if he is out with a girl, but trust me, the diffidence will lighten down on its own, if it’s a guy he is going out with.

Well, all said and done, many college goers might still be unsure of what it’s like to date someone who is attracted to both guys and girls. However, many women who have dated bisexual guys in college note that this is not really an issue as long as communication, openness, love, friendship and compassion remains the priority.

Talk about a school and most of us either recall our fun-filled childhood or the dreadful education system that made us rote and study something that is of no use in today’s world.

However, there are some schools in the world that will shock you and make you rethink about the education!

Here are these:

1) The Boat Schools of Bangladesh

It might sound fun to study in a boat, but these boat schools are made out of necessity due to excessive floods in the country. Started by a non-profit organization called, Shidulai Swanirvar Sangstha, these schools boast of solar power, internet connectivity and libraries! As many as 100 boat schools are floating in Bangladesh empowering the country’s children and helping them make a great future!

2) The Witch School of Salem

Want to study the Witchcraft of Sorcery, Paganism, Wicca, and Divinatory Arts? Look no further! Enrol yourself amongst 40,000 other students in this school based in Salem giving special physical classes to teach you witchcraft. It is based on the same site which was a witness to 200 witch trials from the year 1692 to 1693!

3) Dongzhong Cave School in China

Your village doesn’t have enough resources to make a school? Well, find a cave nearby and start giving education! That’s what the villagers of a poor place in China did so that their children can get educated, even if in a dark and dingy cave. However, the government shut its gates in 2001!

4) River Plate School, Argentina

The students of this school have to manage their studies in a world famous soccer stadium in Buenos Aires. It is a world class stadium and home to famous soccer team Club Atletico while also holding the crown to teach as many as 2000 pupils! Imagine something like this in our own backyard in Wankhede Stadium? Or at Eden Garden?

5) School Of The Future, Philadelphia

Trust Microsoft to do everything differently and on a grand scale. This school is designed by Microsoft for the poor section of society selected through a lottery process and at a cost of $63 million since 2006 is home to so many students carving out a decent future for them. Best part: every kid is given a laptop and education is totally paperless!

6) Burgess Hill School, England

While schools are all about education, some give a different meaning to it by introducing certain aspects to it in the name of social experiment. This school in the 1960’s did exactly that by mirroring the rebellious attitude of the youth of that generation. Hence, taking lessons was voluntary, smoking was allowed, listening to music and wearing sunglasses wasn’t taboo and you could have even taken your pet with you in the class! Sounds fun? Well, the society didn’t consider it fun and hence it closed down! Good experiment though!

7) Gulu Elementary School, China

To reach this school is like making a herculean effort on a daily basis! The kids have to pass through the Luoma Way with sharp turns, narrow rocky passages and risky bridges to reach this school based in Sichuan Province in China. It started in 1980’s to empower a village and as improvement in its basic facilities, boasts of a proper toilet and a basketball court!

8) Harvey Milk High School, New York

This is a school dedicated to the needs of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgenders who otherwise feel humiliated and cornered in other institutions. Despite being attacked by society, the school survives till date and makes sure it’s students are treated like human beings and are no discriminated for their sexuality.

9) The Train Platform Schools Of India

Inderjit Khurana use to watch children begging while on her way to work on trains. This gave her an idea to start teaching these students on railway platforms between stations. What started as just one school now boasts of teaching 4000 needy children and even taking care of their food and medical needs of their family!

10) Forest Kindergartens, Across Europe   

Studying amidst nature is dream come true for many. Enabling students aged 3-6 years are taught in outdoor classrooms helping them learn about nature in the most natural way. Just that kids need to be bit careful as the schools function in summers, winters and every other possible season!

Education has to be fun if it has to generate interest among students. These schools do provide an interesting way to study. Let’s hope more such alternative ways of studying come up to help many of our illiterate brethren come out of the darkness and see the light!
