She is 19 and we’ve been together for six months and get on really well.
I’ve had previous relationships with girls but this is her first.
She has told me she’s worried about her performance in bed as this is her first time with another female.
I’ve explained there’s no pressure on her, though she says she feels bad.
But I was gutted when she admitted she has had sex with a boy since we have been together.
Is she really bisexual like she claims?
DEIDRE SAYS: Many young people use the word bisexual as if it’s interchangeable with gay or lesbian, but it means sexually drawn to both sexes.
Many aren’t sure at your age and there’s no need to label yourself.
But that doesn’t mean it’s OK for your girlfriend to cheat on you.
Tell her you need to talk honestly – and should only be friends for now, not lovers, or you risk passing on coronavirus.
My e-leaflet on Bisexual Issues will help.
