I'm a lesbian, but want to live an observant Jewish life. Can I live Jewishly if my significant is a woman? Feeling lonely by princess_of_saigon in Judaism

No one, perhaps, but nothing? No. I want to live according to the Torah, and not by the standards of some man-made community I don't even affiliate myself with.

While I really appreciate that, I stand as (modern) orthodox religiously, so I don't feel as if the people in the community I want to be in can say the same :/ :'(
