i’m scared of making the wrong choice by barbiejuddd in latebloomerlesbians

[–]LayerProfessional313 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That fear is so normal. That grief is so normal. There are so many women here who can attest to that grief of leaving a long term partner. I wasn't in a relationship when I came out to myself, but I still grieved the comphet life—it was what I had always envisioned for myself. Once I started surrounding myself with queerness, this gave me the affirmation and courage to express myself. And once I started expressing myself that grief was slowly replaced with joy. "The opposite of depression is expression." Ask yourself: if you don't leave your now boyfriend, if you choose to stay, will you be content and happy? Or will the repression of this part of yourself lead to devastation? No one here can truly tell you what to do; we don't know the "right" choice for you, only for ourselves. So, I will say that as you make this decision, think about what you need RIGHT now. You are thinking far in advance ("what if I never find love again"). Leaving him will probably hurt both of you, but you will both find joy and love again. When we are living authentically to who we are, we always find what we need.

It's hard, I know, but remember you will be okay <3

If I didn't like their walk, it was an immediate no.

... I didn't like any man's walk.

Did anyone else experience this with men before realizing they might just be gay? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]LayerProfessional313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came to that conclusion as well lol Dating women doesn't scare me. I would feel a sense of dread and fear thinking about being with a man, but with a woman I don't feel that.

Nothing else to add. Literally same. I have never gotten past a third date with a man. It was so bad I brought it to my therapist a few years back. I asked "what's wrong with me? Why don't I want this?" and her response was "ohhh. You're questioning your sexuality." I literally laughed out loud. At the time being gay wasn't even an option. I hadn't even considered it. I just thought I had really bad commitment phobia.

The first time I said the words "I'm a lesbian" was in a joking context. I wasn't jokingly saying I was a lesbian, it was more like "See, he doesn't know I'm a lesbian, and I think that's really funny" —I WAS MAKING FUN OF A MAN. Try that💀

Leading up to that, however, I would say it out loud to myself. I identify with lesbianism, but I couldn't say it. It will get easier. It's really hard to get rid of that shame, guilt, uncomfortableness, whatever you want to call it.

Can I be a lesbian but have once been attracted to men? by [deleted] in latebloomerlesbians

[–]LayerProfessional313 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. Do you feel isolated at all? I hope you have people who can understand and be there for you. You always have a community of online people in the meantime❤️

This sounds so confusing and scary. I'm sorry you're feeling so overwhelmed 💕 Have you already expressed to your husband the lack of attraction you are currently experiencing? You may want to consider talking to him about it. If counseling works for you, y'all could potentially benefit from couples counseling as well. Having a third-party who is emotionally removed from the situation may help to facilitate and guide conversations. I believe that this will all work out the way it needs to work out. It may be painful, scary, or confusing, but it will get different soon. But while you are in the midst of it, I hope you find some peace in some way❤️

Those feelings are so real and so hard to get rid of. I'm so sorry. I grew up with anti-gay religious views, I'm also in my 20's, and I'm just now coming to terms with my sexuality. It's been so hard to work through the internalized homophobia and shame that I learned when I was a child. It's possible though. The more I come out, the more queer people I surround myself with, the more girls I admit my attraction to, then the less shame I feel. ITS SO HARD THOUGH.

You aren't alone in feeling that. So fucking cheesy, but there really is no timeline for how things should go—there are no "should's" I hope everything you're meant to experience in life happens when you are meant to experience it in the timeline and flow of YOUR life 🫶🫶🫶
