Abstract
Through in–depth discussions among female bisexuals, this study aims to shed light on the psychological conflicts
such individuals may face when living as a bisexual. Furthermore, this study intends to gather knowledge that
would be useful for future psychological support. Meta–observations were employed in the analysis to focus on
the content of the conversation as well as the act of conversation. The result highlighted the experience of "living
in solitude," which is not accepted by both heterosexual society and the community of sexual minorities (especially
the lesbian community). This experience of "living alone" did not allow the participants to accept their sexuality
positively as they should have once, and caused fluctuation in their sexual identity as female bisexuals. From
this perspective, it can be stated that the experience of being accepted as a female bisexual allows participants to
positively self-accept themselves, which not only preserves their mental wellbeing but also enriches the experience
of living as a female bisexual.
