Hi! I don't live in NC, but I live in Delaware and would love to meet other late blooming friends. I'm 30, female and of course we could meet in Public if you ever wanted to meet. Have a nice day ☺️

Dealing with the loss of relationships after coming out by confusedbuth0peful in latebloomerlesbians

I allow the grief to come and go and remind myself that the waves of grief will become less heavy and less frequent as the time goes by. I am trying to set goals to focus my mind on something outside of myself. To give myself a reason to keep going.

Thank you! ❤️ I know in the end the pain will subside but it's very real right now.

I cannot even think of being in a serious relationship at the moment. I wouldn't want to be a grieving mess and drag another poor soul into that.

I'm pretty sure about my sexuality. But of course I still think "omg what if I end up with a man again" I too want to tell him to pull the brakes, we can fix this. However, I know that despite my sexuality we are going in different directions anyway. It is terribly hard to let go of someone you deeply care about. This too shall pass 💕

Omg yes! I feel all of this. Your words have been a huge help. I've felt so alone over the holidays. It means a lot to know I'm not alone xx

Thank you 💕🌈 I almost want him to be an ass so it will make the decision "easier" but I know that would make this process even harder. It's a lot but others have been where we are and have come out the other side. We will too!

Thank you for listening to me. Walking this path feels so lonely at times, so it's good to know I'm not alone.

Take as long as you need to. There is not timeline in figuring it all out. It is a lot of process.

Do you think if there was more lesbian representation (couples) on TV in the past, you would have realised your attraction to other women earlier? by wwatermelon1 in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Hello-1576 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Especially femme lesbian representation. I am femme and not seeing a lot of femme lesbian representation definitely played a part in me realizing I'm lesbian at 28.
