Hey guys! Just sharing my story because I'm not sure what people think of it and I've never met anyone in my situation. I'm a 19 year old lesbian, and I've never had any doubts about what my sexual orientation is. I'm also in a committed 4 year relationship with a man. I love women and I've never felt any type of sexual attraction towards men, except for my partner. I am sure that if I had never met him or if we were to ever break up, I would never date a man again because I know this type of thing is a once in a lifetime thing. People have trouble understanding this but it's actually quite simple. We've been friends forever and we ended up falling in love. There is a strong sexual connection, but he is the only male to get any attention of such sort from me. Thats how it is. We have a pretty honest and open relationship and I feel good about it, I just wish people wouldn't make assumptions when they see us together because I'm very proud to be a lesbian and I fear that it's impossible to broadcast it unless I'm with a woman. What are your thoughts on this? Do you know anyone like me? I wish I could chat with someone in the same situation!
Love is love I'm sorry you're having to deal with people's assumptions. I unfortunately can't personally relate to your situation though.
Sure you're not homoflexible? That's pretty much like 90% gay, but with an outlier every now and then. I'm that way myself but it's easier to just say lesbian for simplicity. If that's the case I feel like you'd have an easier time explaining it.
That would be easier, yeah. But I don't think so because he really is the only exception ever. I've never felt sexual attraction towards any other man and I find it hard to believe that I ever will. It's an interesting point of view, though. I had never thought about that. Thank you ---------- Post added 22nd Nov 2015 at 12:28 AM ---------- That's right! Thank you for you support!
I'm also homoflexible, so I sort of get it, though I've never been in your situation exactly. If you wanted to broadcast your sexuality, you could get a pride pin or something, but that isn't for everybody.
Yes, I know that and I do it all the time, even unconciously. But it would be nice if I could stop being assumed straight all the time. It's awkward sometimes and it's hard do tell someone that you're a lesbian while holding hands with your boyfriend, you know? If I could get a picture of everyone's face when this happens, it would be an interesting scrapbook!
I'm homoflexible too. I've only been attracted to like 1 or 2 guys my whole life, and when people found out they got super super confused. I haven't been in your exact situation, but you just have to do what makes you happy.
It is indeed confusing to certain minds. Yes, I'm pretty happy. Thanks for replying and thanks for the support
It's quite possible! xD Oh, f***! Is it like when straight girls say "I'm only gay for you"? o.o Am I a reverse straight girl? Holy s***!
It seems like other people have already said what I was gonna say. To me, it seems like you're homoflexible. You're still a valid lesbian, though. It's also easier to explain. I hope you guys remain together and continue to have a wonderful relationship.
I'm not sure it's entirely accurate, but it's definitely easier to explain and it's not that far off. Thank you so much! ^^
im not sure. i used to be in that situation and my personal advice is to follow your heart and go with what your gut tells you. whatever happens, happens. everything happens for a reason. you will figure it out. if you ever need someone to talk to im here. post on my wall. best of luck to you!
