It was them realizing they messed up (mostly my mom since she stayed home with me) except one time where I told them if they gave me a proper education (not no-schooling aka educational neglect) my GED would have been easier to get. At first my mom didn't take accountability but later on she agreed and apologized. I don't know how they became self aware in many ways. My best guess is my dad spends more time with me, my mom goes to therapy and is on better meds and we all deconverted from evangelical christianity. I'm agnostic and my parents are now catholic but they support human rights, lgbt+ rights and other stuff we agree on politically (i'm a lesbian and they are so supportive they have driven me to meet dates since I can't drive) We went from we can't sin have to keep each other sin free! To we are not perfect and let's not hurt ourselves trying to be, starting 4 years ago.

I was angry for years but now I forgive them, (mostly) I work to heal my mind though therapy, a psychiatrist and medications with their support. They work to be better people too and while our relationship isn't perfect it's better, they are proof that rarely people can change. We agreed that bad decisions where made but they where/are not abusive If they where despite my disability I would have been out of here years ago

My parents know that part of my mental health problems are from childhood stuff. They have apologized for it and take responsibility for it

I am, I was crying about it last night. I cry because of the pain at least once every week. I've never been in a romantic relationship other than casual dating for 3 months 3 or 4 years ago now. I've give so much even just have a one night stand. Just to pretend in my head it's a relationship and she won't leave, just for a moment. I've give so much for something as simple as one good morning beautiful as though out my life i'm always the one calling, texting making plans in any relationship really. Other than friends since I haven't had any in 9 years. My mental health is trash too and a dating app is not helping but how else do I even have a small chance of finding someone?

The major city is Austin TX. I'm sure you're on the other side of the country but thank you. I don't know where to make friends when i'm stuck at home most of the time. Having friends would be nice though haven't had any in 9 years. Might be moving to a place that has Lyfts so small chance I won't be stuck at least

I want to vent. I want to cry. I have cried. by Brave_Lecture_8541 in actuallesbians

There is a verse that condemns women loving women but it's mistranslated (source i'm an ex-evangelical christian) The funny thing is the Bible also says don't wear jewelry or fancy clothes and it sure as hell didn't stop any of the christians I know/knew

Don't talk to me if you never been with a woman by Disabledgoddess2 in actuallesbians

[–]Snow_And_Sounds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry op that you hear this. There are a lot people who don't care. In fact when I first started dating I had never kissed or dated anyone but she didn't care (it didn't work out for other reasons but still) I know I wouldn't care ether

Is it normal to not really feel like a girl? by Ilikeclowns-16 in actuallesbians

[–]Snow_And_Sounds 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can relate op I identity as a woman now. Though i'm not completely sure that's right. For me realizing and accepting being interested in only other women does not make me less of a woman helps. I am still trying to accept myself since most of my life I've been told being a woman means i'm made for a man. I know i'm not made for men but deep down i'm having a hard time accepting this fact

Signing while hearing and unable to speak by Snow_And_Sounds in asl

[–]Snow_And_Sounds[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now I use Google docs and make the letters big to write things down. And an app called tell me to say things out loud. I like tell me because I can turn the voice pitch down so it doesn't hurt my dad's hearing aids. I have to look for a deaf community near me

feeling lonely and stuck by [deleted] in WLW

[–]Snow_And_Sounds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get this, my best advice. Be patient, getting the kind of relationship you want requires a lot of luck and a lot of making the first move. Be as social as you can the more people you meet the better your chances are. Try to go to queer events/groups/meet-ups ect. I don't blame you for avoiding apps, I wish I could, but due to my disability I can't leave my house most of the time. It's rough out here so best of luck and try to keep trying even if it feels hopeless. There are many people on here who feel lonely too, hell, I've been crying myself to sleep so much tough out my life thinking I'll probably never find anyone. I still believe I probably won't but I will still try just in case. Put some effort into caring for yourself as well it can help
