    I came out as lesbian over message to one of my really good friends the other night and promptly had an anxiety attack HAHHA
    But she called up one of our gay mutual friends, a guy, and was fraking out because she was so surprised but at the same time really proud and happy of me and she later messaged me and wanted to know all about my love life and she was just so supportive beyond belief.
    I just have this inner fear straight girls will always think I have a crush on them or something but she was so natural about it and it just felt so good to be so accepted!!!!!
    Just remember a lot of your expected reactions are in your head :slight_smile: (*hug*)
    It's a really nice feeling to know you're loved for whoever you are

    yay! i totally understand your fear that straight girls will think that, but 1)that's a sign of homophobia so maybe you don't want to be around those girls anyway, 2)it's a pointless thing for anyone to believe because do straight girls develop a crush on every guy they see? do straight men find every woman attractive?

    Glad to hear that your friend is incredibly supportive :slight_smile:.

    And like ameliawesome said, don't worry about what straight girls think about you. The ones who do are likely the types who think EVERYONE wants them.
