[Presumptously commenting on bisexual lifestyle]
i'm sure you'll think this ignorant, but if you could swing either way, why not dump the homosexual relationship and persue the heterosexual relationship that you wish you could have? as far as attractions, we all got them and if you want to fulfill your obligation to monogamy, you just don't act on them.

i'm sure you'll think this ignorant, but if you like both tacos and carrots, why not dump the carrot-eating and persue the taco feast that you wish you could have? as far as hunger, we all got it and if you want to fulfill your obligation to the carrot king, you just don't act on it.
Actually, in the sense of promoting faithful behavior to a partner, as opposed to promiscuity, this makes perfect sense. But behavior is one thing; to suggest that one can simply "turn off" half of the attractions one feels is another, and is just silly.

After all the quotes submitted here, do you expect any of these suggestions to ever make any sense?

Bingo.

Probably because they like the other one just as much?

Obligation? The only obligation you have to monogamy is if you make a vow to your partner to do so.
This is old, but I think there's a fundamental lack of understanding of what 'bisexual' means.
'Why not dump the homosexual relationship and pursue the heterosexual relationship'?
Just because I'm bisexual (or rather, for me, pansexual- but we'll keep it simple) does not mean I'm simultaneously pursuing or maintaining two relationships: one with a male and one with a female. It also does not mean that I choose to be attracted to one or the other.
What it DOES mean is that I do not decide who I fall in love with based on their gender. It means that when I am looking for a mate (read: singular) to spend my life with, I choose based on emotional compatibility (and naturally, some sexual compatibility) more than 'penis vs vagina'.
Stfu.
Confused?
