I want to tell my mom that I'm bi. But I'm really scared. She says she loves me no matter what. So can anyone tell me how to do this?

What I did was tell my dad first, he said he didn't care who I liked as long as I was happy.
I told him that I felt like I was keeping a secret and it was bothering me to keep it in, so after he asked what it was I just told him.
For my mom, I took maybe a month after telling my dad because my mom would be a little more... upset about it?
I told her the same thing except at the end I told her "Now you hate me and now you probably want me to move out." She said she's love me no matter what, and she said it was fine.
Your parents are people too. Do you really expect them to not love you no matter what? If they’ve raised you from a baby until now they’re probably telling the truth when they say they love you no matter what.
Do you feel nothing but love from them? Are they relatively intelligent people? Don’t’ worry about it. If you really want to tell them then there is no other way to do it but to actually stand up and let it out. You’ll feel better afterward; you’ll feel even better if they accept you for it.
If you fear that they won’t accept you, why not ask a neutral third party. Do you have a sibling that you know is sympathetic to your plight? Or perhaps a best friend who has been around your parents from time to time in order to assist you with alleviating some of your distress and anxiety about it?
