Maybe reassure him you DO like him and want to stay with him (for now).

Saying you prefer women could be interpreted as your interest in men is waning, which in turn could imply your interest in him is waning (which to a guy might sound like he isn't going to get any more booty from you. [he might go even further and conclude he will be single forever, because every woman he's ever dated became a lesbian or a nun.]) People tend to catastrophise any news they hear.

But you can easily fix that by reassuring him he'll still get booty from you (which is probably the most important thing to him right now, because he's a man and all men are cursed by evolution to be that way.)


Best wishes and congratulations on being bi. Your dating pool is double the size! You're also a unique and wonderful individual. Communication issues plague us all.
