I am proud of myself. I have gone from a couple of close friends knowing I'm bi, to all my friends and most family members knowing. I feel so free. I can talk freely, act how i choose and most importanly, everyone accepts me. I split from my husband a few months ago and since then his family have taken to calling me "the dyke" and you know what, i don't care! They don't even know about my sexuality, i couldn't care less if they did, this nickname is based on my appearance alone and a "vibe" i have, they are simply doing it to be cruel. But yeah, i like girls. So what?! I used to care so much about what these people thought of me and i felt so badly about myself, to no longer care is just an amazing feeling. I've started hanging out with a girl, i don't know where it'll go or what will happen but I'm having fun, we get on great and I'm finally getting to act on feelings I've stuffed down inside for a decade. I just really wanted to share because I'm feeling really positive and i never would have thought I'd be here saying this a year ago. I actually feel proud of who i am! ✌
