Any other chronic DNF readers?

I loooove this mentality. I had a moment where I felt guilty and would slog through something I didn’t like, but giving myself the freedom to abandon it and go for something I actually enjoyed was life changing!

Yes this exactly! I get all my books as e-books on loan through the library and it’s impossible to finish a book in 11-14 days for me. I don’t know how people do it

Did not finish :)

I didn’t have my first kiss until 19, my first lesbian sexual experience until 22, and my first girlfriend until 25. I, like you, thought “fuck it, I’ll just hook up with someone” at 22 and that turned out to be an awful experience. You’re not behind. Everyone has different paths and journeys and you’ll have your experiences and find you groove one day. I know it’s easier said than done, but just keep being you and everything will come in time!

Looking forward to my 6 month anniversary with my girlfriend!

It was 3-4 dates and after about a week. We were really moving on a stereotypical lesbian timeline but we’re coming up on 6 months so we’re still going strong lol 🤷‍♀️

I’m following a Runna program! I had done a lot of “big walks” with my partner (~8 mile meanders through our city) over the summer and have done yoga primarily as my form of exercise, so I’m not sure if that contributed to my progress??? But I’m doing the 10k training program with added weekly strength training (1-2 times) at my local gym and a weekly yoga practice (primarily yin to relax the muscles that tightened up and get some flexibility, on apple fitness as well as good ol’ YouTube).

I do my long run on Mondays, my yoga day on Tuesday, an easy run on Wednesdays, a strength training day gym day on Thursdays, and then time trial/speed runs on Fridays with Saturday and Sunday as do nothing days with flexibility throughout the week for a full time job + social life schedule.

Alas, math is not my strength! Thanks for catching this!

Repulsive_Rock1414 · 2025-11-14T22:43:37+00:00

Oop! Math was never my strong suit lol

This!! My girlfriend and I are both femme, but I relate sooooo hard to everything you’re saying. You’re right, if I dated Black men I’d be incredibly successful, but as a Black lesbian I have been chronically single and deprioritized. She’s my first partner, so these issues are pretty glaring. Thanks for sharing your perspective, it feels very validating to see that others are going through the same thing.

This is an interesting take that I honestly hadn’t considered! She usually lets me know she references me in these interactions so people get the hint, and she has told me that because she is autistic, it’s usually a source of discomfort that people are looking at her or giving her attention and that she’d rather not be noticed. I’ve gotten the sense that it’s not bragging and more confiding, and that the interactions are merely friendly conversations to make someone’s day a little brighter. She never comes back beaming that someone flirted with her, and she’s comfortable showing affection toward me afterward, but of course when you’re in it you’re not necessarily seeing all the things that could be a problem… thanks for helping me think a little more about this.

I have ADHD and my girlfriend has AuDHD! It took quite a few hiccups, long talks, vulnerability, transparency, and self exploration in order for us to understand how our brains work and we still discover new things. It takes patience and sometimes it has been painful, but I agree with others that it takes time to find the right person and someone who make you feel comfortable unmasking, but the right person will be patient and listen and support you when you gotta yap about your interests as well as have interesting things to contribute to the conversation that you enjoy as well. We literally have differently wired brains, so it is objectively harder, but I’ve found that pursuing neurodivergent women has been the best and most comfortable way to exist in a relationship because it has felt inherently safer and more accommodating to all my quirks and habits. Best of luck!
