I made an offer on an item and im currently the highest bidder which is fine. How do I decrease the amount of my maximum bid?

you dont,the amount you bid is your bid,you may not have to eventually pay that much ,all depends if other bids are made.

A bid and an offer are two different things. You bid on auctions and make offers on Best Offer listings.

There is no ebay legal reason to change your bid.
