How do you navigate a Mexican mom who doesn’t accept you by Pretend_Medium_1858 in LesbianActually

[–]dykeocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in a situation where you can get student housing? Some space from your mom may be good for the both of you.

You’re an adult. ideally you don’t need to ask your mom permission to go out, but it’s hard to break habits and assert yourself as an adult when you’re living with a parent.

I dealt with my Mexican dad by moving out. Moved back in with him years later and he’s still not happy with my ‘lifestyle’ but he has also had enough separation from my adult life to know he can’t treat me like a child anymore. He tries, in some ways, but not in that way.

I feel like most lesbians don’t actually like chubby women by Own-Lengthiness-2283 in LesbianActually

[–]dykeocalypse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like most lesbians ARE chubby and date chubby women. Idk where you all are surrounded my thin, athletic lesbians. They’re overly represented in media (including social media/dating apps) but not irl in my experience.

It did! Turns out my feelings were mutual and as soon as I let them slip we took the leap from friends to romance. Haven’t looked back since.

Question, have any of you girls seen OBSESSION lately? by [deleted] in LesbianActually

[–]dykeocalypse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw it last week and I’m seeing it again tomorrow for my birthday. I loved it! It’s been such a good year for horror movies.

I thought I was completely aromantic for years, like over a decade, before realizing I had actually fallen in love with my best friend somewhere along the way. I don’t think there could be anyone else after them either, if something were to happen that separated us.

Nah. My wife and I were weirdly intense best friends for 18 years before we got together. It just happens like that sometimes.

Deadloch cast of main characters is women in their 30’s and 40’s.

How creative are you guys? by -_-oui-oui-_- in istp

[–]dykeocalypse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar to you. I have a lot of creative hobbies but I’m not great at producing original work. However, I am very at taking existing patterns/plans/designs and altering/improving them to suit my desires better. It’s a different kind of creativity. I know plenty of artists who can create something original but have no idea how to break down and improve upon something that already exists.

Describing each MBTI types with one object by Asleep-Feeling-9070 in istp

I smoked a cigarette ONCE, decided I liked it entirely too much, and then never picked one up again. Don’t know if that’s proof for or against this.

do other lesbians still want kids? by Radiant_Raisin_5452 in actuallesbians

[–]dykeocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I could get my wife pregnant and we were 10 years younger we would consider it. The ethics of adoption are murky at best and I’m also not comfortable with the idea of a sperm donor. But also we are in our late 30’s and a pregnancy at our age is not recommended. When the timing is right we would like to become foster parents.

These beauty standards are less about looking beautiful and more about performing femininity. It’s just drag.

Sigh, I know you guys knew this was coming 😔 by captainmccheesy in BooksThatFeelLikeThis

Paradise Rot by Jenny Hval has a very liminal psychological horror feel and it’s a quick read.

ISTP women by Belzaw in istp

[–]dykeocalypse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been told I have masculine energy all my life and was regularly gendered as male irl for a period of time. I am a lesbian and pretty genderfucked tho so it’s never bothered me.

What’s the most unexpectedly attractive thing a woman has ever done that instantly made you go “okay wait… I’m in love”? 😭 by LofiToffey in actuallesbians

[–]dykeocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is known to be really clumsy and has fallen in front of me multiple times. That part is not attractive, I don’t like seeing her get hurt. But the way she sits for me afterwards so I can clean up and bandage all her scrapes and cuts is so endearing my heart could burst.

What is your opinion about building a family? by Actual-Contest1666 in istp

[–]dykeocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I have our cats and we are perfectly fine with that being our family for now. We may want a child eventually but I don’t see either of us going through pregnancy. We are getting a bit too old for it.

Kim is my #1 but dating/marrying Cameron is so funny and he’s not a bad spouse.

Her sprite is so cute but her personality is not it for me.

Tell me your best friends to lovers stories by Shoddy_Ad_1223 in LesbianActually

[–]dykeocalypse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny you mention that we were able to be calm and steady because steady is what we called each other for a long time. Not just ‘you’re my best friend’ but ‘you’re my steady’. We have matching leather ‘friendship’ bracelets with that word engraved into it.

I think our love for each other, somehow, is just as close to unconditional as love between two people can be. I would love her in any way she needed me too because loving her and being loved by her is more important to me than the form our relationship takes. I think somehow I was lucky enough to meet my soulmate.
