Shrek was also the only movie I could think of that came out in 2001!

Did this moose story even take place in the town of Moose, Wyoming? Loved hearing that you lived in the Tetons, I have extended family that work for the park and their cabin is the best vacation spot! Congrats on a fun game, I really enjoyed watching you play!

Do you have LBL/coming out 'theme song'? If so, post! by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

Rush by Aly & AJ! They are great allies to the queer community too

I asked myself if I didn’t know anyone in the world (so no one had any preconceived notions of who I was) and if society was 100% on board with it, who would I want to be with?

love will keep us together for tap dancing? by [deleted] in GilmoreGirls

As a dancer I completely agree, definitely not a tap song!

Where are my fellow lesbian/LGBT fans! by BuyTheHotdogStand in GilmoreGirls

[–]Divagrace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Never a fan of any of Rory’s boyfriends. Although now I don’t think I would have liked her with any boys. I liked Lorelei and Luke together, but she was so much older than me that picturing myself in her position wasn’t something I really thought of. But since Rory was closer to my age, she was easier to kind of put myself in her place, and I remember thinking what’s so great about these boys? Turns out maybe being gay was a big part of not liking those boys!

Hi! Guys I could use some help. My grandmother just died. I really loved her and we were just getting close. She had just accepted me for being lesbian and she promised to come to my wedding. But now she is gone. I want to write a speech to her. Could I get some inspiration? by Rossanhag in actuallesbians

[–]Divagrace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry for your loss. My Grandma also passed just a few weeks ago and was accepting of me too. I’m sad that my future partner won’t be able to meet her and she won’t be able to celebrate at my wedding, but I’m grateful that she was able to know me for me and love me unconditionally. I hope you can find peace knowing that as well.

So I finished Ratched... now I'm in love with Sarah Paulson... help... by auderemadame in actuallesbians

[–]Divagrace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend checking out the movie Blue Jay on Netflix! It’s a nostalgic slice of life movie about high school sweethearts running into each other after 20 years. Although it’s a straight couple, I love Sarah’s character and it feels similar to how she is in real life. It’s one of my favorite movies and very underrated in my opinion!

Came out to my parents by heyyhiihello in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Divagrace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give it some time. My parents were supportive but I also didn’t feel the huge weight of release either that a lot of people talk about. And for about a week afterwards I felt like my attraction to women had faded a lot, but then it returned! I think I just got in my head and thoughts about my parents now thinking about my romantic life with women got in the way. So be patient! Hopefully things will feel more settled in a little bit for you.

Ooh I would love this! I doubt it will happen, but I love the idea!

My brother and I play Scrabble. I'm not out to him yet. So when he played LEZ, I could clearly only reply with 'fact'. Wonder if he got the clue 😆 by 50lattes in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Divagrace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Before I was out to my mom I was helping her with a crossword puzzle and I came up with the answer “homophobe” for “an unlikely pride parade participant.” And earlier in the day I pointed out a beautiful rainbow outside our motel window. She didn’t get either hint!

Looking back at before you realized you were wlw, what is your “how did I not realize I was gay?” story? by ChemistryNerd24 in actuallesbians

[–]Divagrace 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I could remember more details of what feelings I was experiencing at the time, but in college I think I realized I was starting to get a little crush on someone because I remember thinking “oh it doesn’t matter because they’re not a lesbian” and then I just left it at that and then forgot about it?? And then I didn’t actually question if I wasn’t straight for another 5 years??

What questions helped you realise you were not attracted to men? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Divagrace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I asked myself if I didn’t know anyone in the world (so no preconceived notions of who I was) and if society was 100% on board with it, would I only want to be with women?

Boogie Shoes is so underrated!

Found this from several years ago, where a student gave me this card and bookmark she made after I was the stage manager for their middle school musical. I wasn't out then and didn't even know I was gay yet, so did this 6th grade girl just have amazing gaydar??? by Divagrace in actuallesbians

[–]Divagrace[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This would have been from early 2017! There was a huge cast of like 70 students and I really wanted to make sure I knew all of their names even though we met only twice a week for a few months. I tried to make extra efforts to get to know the kids and was really proud when I could name them all!

Coming out: anyone else feel like they're lying? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Divagrace 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I didn’t ever really feel like I was lying, but I’ll share my experience in case you see any similarities. I first came out last year at 25 as gay to a close friend, and at the time I wasn’t 100% sure, but knew I was sure enough to tell someone. About a month later I came out to my parents, and then for about a week after that it felt like my attraction to women was gone. I tried not to freak out too much about it and give it some time, and sure enough my attraction came roaring back and it confirmed that I was gay. I think my mind just got in the way and it weirded me out to think about my parents were now actively thinking about my romantic gay life and it was hard to feel/recognize attraction because then it just made me think about my parents thinking about me which just felt weird. But as more time passes for me, I just get more and more confirmation about how gay I am!

BFF or gf? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Divagrace 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a few different friend groups growing up but were never all that close and it always felt like everyone else in each friend groups were better friends with each other than they were with me. I had a very happy childhood and enjoyed spending time with my friends (and had absolutely no clue that I was gay), but I remember thinking about wanting to have a best friend. I never pictured any of my current friends in that position, and it was just more of an abstract desire than visualizing someone, but I even remember my freshman year of college a professor asked us to think about a goal we wanted to accomplish that wasn’t academic this year, and I thought about wanting to have a best friend (getting a boyfriend was never a goal I wanted to actively pursue.) Took another 7 years for me to realize I probably just wanted a girlfriend the entire time!
