I'm no longer 'Jimin biased' | I'm Acknowledging my 'true' bias once and for all

Okay so.. this is a rather long story I suppose...?

A few days ago, I had a bit of a break down about BTS as a group, in general. I was questioning a lot of things and almost stopped stanning the group period (which, I know... is VERY ridiculous). But, I suppose I've been feeling this way for a while now.

And, while I haven't stopped stanning them (cause lets face it... who could?)

If any of you have had full conversations with me, then you know that I, when asked who my bias was, would list Jimin, but also say that I have more than one, because in all honesty, I really do.

I have three biases in BTS. Jimin, Hobi and Suga. For the longest time, I've always claimed 'Jimin' as the bias, since it was easier to just sort of pick one, and he's been the one that's... I guess made my heart beat the most? But, it's fluctuated from those three periodically in the last few years. But, for the last half a year (actually, longer if I think about it, and I'll explain that a bit later)... I suppose Jimin hasn't been the one to make my heart beat the most.

I mean, obviously he still does, otherwise I wouldn't have stories planned for him, and him with his pink hair definitely ed me up some type of way (cause hot damn, pink Jimin is life). But, my feels have been finding more connection with my first bias once again, Min Yoongi.

I've never really gotten over my feels for Yoongi, but Hoseok and Jimin just gained enough to match him, and now it's looking to me that perhaps I shouldn't have stopped calling Yoongi my bias in the first place?

I have a lot of Jimin stories posted on AFF, because that's just what I've been inspired to write recently, and what people have voted for in my polls and such. But I have just as many Yoongi stories as Jimin, and in all honesty, every time a new story idea comes to mind... I usually pick Yoongi as the main first, and have to train myself to choose a different member, unless it's the member themselves who inspired the fic.

I've been contemplating the status of who my bias is for a looooong while now. In fact, a little over a month ago, I posted a blog post about my feels for Suga (here) and the conflict I was going through, and the conclusion is...

Min Yoongi is the one who I'm claiming as my bias from now on. That doesn't mean I love Jimin any less, it just means that I'm acknowledging my feelings for Yoongi. 

I know this blog may seem a bit silly... but as anyone on here may know... when you've stanned someone for so long, or have claimed someone as your bias... it's no easy task admitting when they aren't anymore, and even though Jimin still is, just like Yoongi always was (and Hobi too), it doesn't mean it's any easier now saying that I've decided to place Yoongi, for the sake of 'listing' and 'stating' as my bias.

And... it feels good to let this off of my chest.

Thank you <3

I cannot blame you for posting this! I've been in this situation two times! The first one is when I decided that Infinite has topped my list before U-Kiss, and then BTS has topped more than Infinite. I mean, who in this world can make such hard decision in a span of time without proper consulting, reviewing and contemplating, right? Hahaha what am I even saying. Anyways, I'm glad I've read this post! <3

BTS is definitely one group that makes a fan life more difficult by making it almost impossible to settle on a bias. I feel u. JHOPE grab my attention first n brought me to BTS during the Bulletproof era. Over the yrs some members kinda grab my attention one way or another but I will always circle back to that lil ball of sunshine. My top 3 are Jhope, Suga n Taehyung. Oh well. I'm sure the coming years to come, some other members will grab my attention again but hey, it'll always be JHope at the end of the day for me.
Cheers babe. We are in for a ride~

I agree on this. Ever since NMD Era I have been a Taehyung biased and Yoongi became my bias wrecker in N.O. I keep denying that I'm turning into a Yoongi biased but needless to say my tweets are all about Yoongi. Then by 2015, when they released I need U that was the time I admitted, "ah, Yoongi is my biased. I can't keep on lying to myself that I'm still a Taehyung Biased."

I'm happy that you found your real bias.. hope we see some yoongi stories! But that doesn't mean u ain't writing about jimin right? Since u said that doesn't mean you love him less
