Does being gay or other LGBTQA+ seem surreal to anyone else. I can recognize that I’m a lesbian, but when I was younger I never would have considered that I would share this trait with the people who my parents called lesbian or gay. I think the strangest part for me is that I confused my intense platonic attraction for men as romantic crushes, and so I have to break that habit and get on with my life. But even though being gay makes so much sense, I’m just having a hard time comprehending that I am a lesbian. Anyone else ever feel like this? Not necessarily denial, but just a surreal feeling that you’re not straight. Feel free to discuss
Omg, yeah! It's the most bizarre feeling sometimes! You just never expected you would be! You just sort of assumed you were straight, but once you realize you're not, it's like "Woah...the world makes so much more sense." :lol:
I did for a while...although for me it was more of a feeling that I couldn't understand WHY I'd never thought about it before, because when I accepted it, it seemed so obvious...
Yea i can completely relate. I think i am still swallowing this aspect of myself.. but it's like an OMG sensation. I feel like i have to take baby steps because i am so blown away by it. I'm happy about it but just wowed by it too.
Yeah, every now and then I have to pinch myself to see if this is really happening. I usually end up with a smile like this:
It is weird. I still have moments where I ask myself, "Am I really gay?" and then I see a pretty girl...
